MCQ
If heat is supplied to a solid, its temperature:
- AMust increase.
- BMay increase.
- CMay remain constant.
- ✓Both $B$ and $C$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Both $B$ and $C$
When heat is supplied to a solid, it is used up either to increase the temperature of the body or to change its state from one form to another by breaking the bonds between the molecules $($without raising the temperature$).$
When heat is supplied to the solid, the internal energy of the solid increases, so the temperature does not decrease.
