Question
Explain Solid-liquid equilibrium.
✓
Answer
Conversion of ice to water is an example of solid-liquid equilibrium.
$\underset{\text { ice }}{ H _2 O ( s )} \rightleftharpoons \underset{\text { water }}{ H _2 O (l)}$
In a container (thermos flask) at 273 K temperature and on one atmospheric pressure, ice and water are in equilibrium. 273 K , is the melting point of ice and freezing point of water. At equilibrium, with time there is no change in mass of ice and water. Because rate of formation of water from ice is equal to rate of formation of ice from water.
