Ice and water are placed in a closed container at a pressure of 1 atm and temperature 273.15K. If pressure of the system is increased 2 times, keeping temperature constant, then identify correct observation from the following:

Question

Given $C_p = a + bT$
$a = 19.5$, $b = 0.042$, $n = 1$ mole
Temperature changes from $27^\circ C$ to $327^\circ C$.
Find $\Delta H$.

Answer 1

An increase in pressure at a stable temperature will shift the equilibrium towards the liquid phase because the solid phase occupies less volume. This leads to a reduction in the quantity of ice.Final Conclusion:Option (2) is accurate, stating that the amount of ice decreases.
