![### Identifying Phase Transitions on a Heating Curve
A pure solid sample of Substance X is put into an evacuated flask. The flask is heated at a steady rate, and the temperature is recorded as time passes. Below is a graph of the results:
#### Graph Description:
- **X-axis**: Heat added (kJ/mol)
- **Y-axis**: Temperature (°C)
- **Curve**: The graph shows an upward trend initially, indicating an increase in temperature as heat is added. It then becomes horizontal, indicating a phase change where temperature remains constant despite further heat addition. The curve resumes an upward trend once the phase change is complete.
#### Use this graph to answer the following questions:
1. **What is the melting point of X?**
- [Input for numerical answer] °C
2. **What phase (physical state) of X would you expect to find in the flask after 7 kJ/mol of heat has been added?**
- [Checkboxes]
- Solid
- Liquid
- Gas
[Buttons for interaction]
- Explanation

(Note: The graph illustrations make it clear that specific regions indicate different phases based on the heat added and the corresponding temperature changes.)
