Q.

Ans.

(3)

From 50 K to boiling temperature, T increases linearly as Q=mcΔT.  Hence T-t graph will be a straight line inclined to time axis.

During boiling, Q=mL

Temperature remains constant till boiling is complete and graph will be a straight line parallel to time axis.

After that, temperature increases linearly. T-t graph will be a straight line inclined to time axis.
