The graph shows the variation of temperature $(T)$ of one kilogram of a material with the heat $(H)$ supplied to it. At $O,$ the substance is in the solid state. From the graph, we can conclude that

66-2

  • A

    ${T_2}$ is the melting point of the solid

  • B

    $BC$ represents the change of state from solid to liquid

  • C

    $({H_2} - {H_1})$ represents the latent heat of fusion of the substance

  • D

    $({H_3} - {H_1})$ represents the latent heat of vaporization of the liquid
