If water at `0^@C` kept in a container with an open top, is placed a large evacuated chamber,

A

(a)All the water will vaporize.

B

(b)All the water will freeze.

C

(c)Part of the water will vaporize and the rest wil freeze.

D

(d)Ice, water and water vapour will be formed and reach equilibrium at the triple point.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
A part of liquid will evaporate immediately sucking latent heat from the bulk of liquid. Hence a part of liquid will freeze.
