The graph shows the variation of temperature $(T)$ of one kilogram of a material with the heat $(H)$ supplied to it. At $O$,the substance is in the solid state. From the graph,we can conclude that

  • A
    $T_1$ is the melting point of the solid
  • B
    $BC$ represents the change of state from solid to liquid
  • C
    $(H_2 - H_1)$ represents the latent heat of fusion of the substance
  • D
    $(H_3 - H_1)$ represents the latent heat of vaporization of the liquid
