Q.

Which of the following is a super-cooled liquid?

A. Ice-cream
B. Ammonia
C. Glass
D. Wood
Answer» C. Glass
Explanation: Glass is considered to be a super- cooled liquid due to its lack of a first-order phase transition where certain thermodynamic variables such as volume, entropy and enthalpy are discontinuous through the glass transition. range. However, the glass transition may be described as analogous to a second-order phase transition where the intensive thermodynamic variables such as the thermal expansivity and heat capacity are discontinuous.
