Question

which statement describes how phase changes can be diagrammed as a substance is heated? the phase is on the y - axis and the temperature is on the x - axis. the temperature is on the y - axis and the phase is on the x - axis. the time is on the y - axis and the temperature is on the x - axis. the temperature is on the y - axis and the time is on the x - axis.

Explanation:

When diagramming phase - changes as a substance is heated, time is typically on the x - axis (independent variable) and temperature is on the y - axis (dependent variable). Phase changes are observed as plateaus on the temperature - time graph.

Answer:

The temperature is on the y - axis and the time is on the x - axis.
