Heating Curve

Guided Notes

3 key concepts

  • 1

    A heating curve, also known as a phase diagram, shows the relationship between temperature and energy for a material.

  • 2

    For water, the melting point is 0 degrees Celsius, and the boiling point is 100 degrees Celsius.

  • 3

    During phase changes, such as melting or boiling, the temperature remains constant as the energy goes into changing the phase of the material.
