Melting of ice is an example of an _____________ process?
Correct answer: A. Isothermal
- A. Isothermal
- B. Adiabatic
- C. Isometric
- D. None of these
Explanation
During melting at its melting point, ice and liquid water coexist in equilibrium, so the temperature remains essentially constant while latent heat changes the phase. This makes melting an isothermal process.
