Ans: options (i) and (iv)
Ice and water are in equilibrium only at particular temperature and pressure. For any pure substance at atmospheric pressure, the temperature at which the solid and liquid phases are at equilibrium is called the normal melting point or normal freezing point of the substance. For example, it is 4°C in case of water. The system here is in dynamic equilibrium.
