Supercooled water is at 100°C calculate temperature of Ice formed

Answer

0°C

Explanation

Solution

The question presents a contradiction: "Supercooled water is at 100°C." Supercooled water is liquid water cooled below its freezing point (0°C) without solidifying. Water at 100°C is at its boiling point and cannot be supercooled.

Assuming the question intends to ask for the temperature at which ice is formed from water initially at 100°C, the process involves:

  1. Cooling the water from 100°C to its freezing point.
  2. At the freezing point, the water undergoes a phase transition to ice.

The freezing point of water at standard atmospheric pressure is 0°C. Therefore, the temperature of the ice formed is 0°C. The term "supercooled" is inconsistent with the given temperature and is likely an error or a distractor.
