Question
1 kg of water is at triple point. What amount of water will be in solid, liquid and vapour phase?
Solution
There is no definite relation in the amount of water in different phases at the triple point.
At triple point, the whole of 1 kg water can be in a single phase. The relative amounts of the three phases depend on internal energy of water.
For e.g. we can increase the amount of vapour phase of water by adding heat to the water .
