When water is heated the temp reaches a constant value and forms a plateau on the graph what does the plateau indicate?

It indicates that the temperature does not change during the phase change from liquid to gas until the change is complete. During the phase change, the heat energy added to the water goes into breaking hydrogen bonds between water molecules, so it does not cause an increase in temperature during that time.

When water is heated the temperature eventually reaches a plateau what does the plateau indicate?
This indicates that that the water is changing form from a liquid to a gas.
What happens to the entropy of gas as it is heated?
In a closed system the entropy is constant.
Why must epsom salts be heated to a constant weight?
To remove the water of hydration. the loss of weight will be the weight of water present in the original salts.
Why is it important to stir the beaker while the water is heated?
So that the temperature of the liquid is at a constant measurement
When a metal is heated in a flame the flame has a distinctive color the information was eventually extended to the study of stars because?
Because the color spectra of stars indicate which elements are present.
When water is heated the temperature eventually reaches a constant value and forms a plateau on the graph what does the plateau indicate?
The boiling point.
When water is heated the temperature eventually reaches a plateau what does the plateau indicate?
This indicates that that the water is changing form from a liquid to a gas.
What is a gas that expands when heated?
Any gas will expand when heated, assuming you keep pressure constant.
What does water do as it is heated?
it will boil once it reaches 100 degrees Celsius
Why does the Tibetan plateau gets intensely heated up during summer?
because of its high elevation.

yes
Which property of a block remains constant when the metal is heated?
Mass
What happens to the pressure of gas when it is heated at a constant heat?
The pressure is higher.
What happens to the entropy of gas as it is heated?
In a closed system the entropy is constant.
Why does heating a liquid make it rise?
Heated liquid rises because it reaches the boiling point.
Why Do Gasses Have Two Specific Heats?
One is for constant pressure, the other is for constant volume. These are not the same; for example, if the pressure is maintained constant, and the gas is heated, the volume changes.
What will happen to air if it is heated along a slope element?
Generally, if air is heated, its temperature will increase. And if the pressure remains constant, its density will decrease.
