Heating and Cooling Curve Explained

The document explains the heating and cooling curves, which graphically represent the temperature changes of a substance as it transitions between solid, liquid, and gas phases. It details the phases of the heating curve, including the solid phase, melting point, liquid phase, boiling point, and gas phase, as well as the cooling curve phases: gas phase, condensation point, liquid phase, freezing point, and solid phase. The document emphasizes the constant temperature points during phase changes and the behavior of particles as they change states.

HEATING CURVE
The heating of a solid until it
becomes a liquid can be
expressed graphically. This
type of graph is known as a
HEATING CURVE. A
HEATING CURVE shows how
the changes as a substance is
heated up at a constant rate.

Heating Curve of a substance
HEATING CURVE
SOLID PHASE: When heat is
applied to a solid over a
period of a few minutes,
the temperature of the
solid will increase over
time
HEATING CURVE
HEATING CURVE
SOLID & LIQUID PHASE: As
soon as the solid begins to
melt the temperature
remains constant. This is
called the MELTING POINT.
At the melting point you will
find two states of matter
present – solid and liquid.

LIQUID PHASE: If heat is
continue to be applied to a
liquid, over a period of a few
minutes, the temperature of
the liquid will increase over
time.

LIQUID & GAS PHASE: Then
as soon as the liquid begins
to turn into a gas, the
temperature remains
constant again. This is called
the BOILING POINT. At the
boiling point you find two
states of matter, liquid and
gas.

GAS PHASE: Once all of the
liquid has been converted
into a gas the temperature
will once again begin to rise
COOLING CURVE
A COOLING CURVE shows
how the temperature
changes as a substance is
being cooled at a constant
rate.

GAS PHASE: During this
phase on the cooling curve
heat is being removed over
a period of a few minutes,
the temperature of the gas
will decrease over time.

CONDENSATION PHASE: As
soon as the gas begins to
condense the temperature
remains constant. This is
called the CONDENSATION
POINT. At the condensation
point you will find two states
of matter present – gas and
liquid.

the gas has been converted

will once again begin to fall
or decrease.

FREEZING PHASE: Then as
soon as the liquid begins to
turn into a solid, the
temperature remains
constant again. This is called
the FREEZING POINT. At
the freezing point you find
two states of matter, liquid
and solid.
