The diagram shows a three-component SOW phase diagram depicted at a constant temperature (T), and pressure (P). Consider the composition marked by the red arrow as point Y. In light of the Phase Rule, f=c-p+2, how many degrees of freedom does this composition have? Include P and T as variables as you formulate your answer.

a. 0 (invariant)

b. 1 (univariant)

c. 2 (bivariant)

d. 3 (trivariant)

e. 4 (tetravariant)
