A science experiment was conducted by a man in his kitchen. He kept some ice cubes at room temperature. Ice cubes melted into water. Then he placed this water in a pot on the stove and turned on the heat. As the water started to heat up, he observed some changes. As the temperature increased, he observed that the water started to form tiny bubbles and steam began to rise. Then, he placed a metal lid on top of the pot to cool down the steam. After a few minutes, when he removed the lid, he saw water droplets on the inner side of the lid.
He plotted the following graph. Observe the graph carefully and answer the following questions.
(a) What experiment did the man perform?
(b) Label A, B, C, D and E in the graph.
(c) Why did he observe water droplets on the lid?
(d) At what temperature does water change into ice?
(e) Why does it take so long to warm water in winter?
(f) Does the quantity of water also change with its state?
