Question 11
H

A student has three samples of water, each of mass 18 g: ice at 0 ∘C0\,^\circ\mathrm{C}0∘C, liquid water at 0 ∘C0\,^\circ\mathrm{C}0∘C and steam at 100 ∘C100\,^\circ\mathrm{C}100∘C.

Statement 1: the three samples all contain the same number of water molecules

Statement 2: the particles in the ice at 0 ∘C0\,^\circ\mathrm{C}0∘C have less energy than the particles in the water at 0 ∘C0\,^\circ\mathrm{C}0∘C

Statement 3: energy must be supplied to the water at 0 ∘C0\,^\circ\mathrm{C}0∘C to turn it into ice at 0 ∘C0\,^\circ\mathrm{C}0∘C
