Which outcome occurs when rapid depressurization induces a first-order phase transition?

💡 Explanation

Rapid depressurization causes latent heat release during transition because matter changes phase via a first-order transition related process. Latent heat is released rather than predictably constant temperature because temperature shift depends on specific molecular bonds when pressure changes.
