Heat capacity of a system undergoing a phase change is
AInfinite in value
BZero at all times
CEqual to specific heat
DEqual to latent heat
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Infinite in value
During a phase change the supplied heat changes the state instead of the temperature, so the ratio of heat to temperature change becomes infinite.
