From the figure what we infer is that the spoon which was earlier in contact-xA0- with ice cube- on heating gives water vapour-xA0- because of vapourisation of water on heating- equilibrium is achieved-xA0- firstly on heating cold liquid water then only vapours start appearing - showing combustion reaction is completed-
