Solution

WaterIce
(a) The temperature at which water converts to ice is 273 K. Therefore, the temperature x is 273 K.

(b) Process P is known as cooling.

(c) Latent heat of freezing is released during the cooling.

(d) Process Q is known as liquifaction.

(e) Latent heat of fusion is absorbed during the reaction.
