Question

At a triple point, the number of phases present are

• A. one
• B. two
• C. three
• D. four

Hint:

Review phase diagrams to understand eutectic systems and their applications.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

At the eutectic point, three phases coexist in equilibrium: two solid phases and one liquid phase. This point is significant in phase diagrams, particularly for binary mixtures.
