Question 21.


_________ is the physical process through which liquid converts to gas.


  1.     Solidification
  2.     Evaporation
  3.     Melting
  4.     Freezing
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Evaporation
:
B

Evporation is the physical process through which a liquid converts to a gas on absorbing heat. For example, liquid water from oceans, lakes, rivers and other water bodies, undergoes evaporation (changes into gas) by absorbing heat from the Sun.


Question 22.


Matter occupies space.


  1.     True
  2.     False
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> True
:
A
Matter is anything which has mass and occupies space. It can be felt and sensed by our five senses.
Question 23.


Gases have 


  1.     definite shape
  2.     definite size
  3.     indefinite shape
  4.     definite volume
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> indefinite shape
:
C

Gases have indefinite shape and size. Particles of gases move around freely and have very weak forces of attraction between them.


Question 24.


Ice + ____  Liquid water


  1.     Ice
  2.     Heat
  3.     Salt
  4.     Sugar
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Heat
:
B

When heat is supplied to ice, it converts to liquid water. The process of converting solid into liquid by applying heat is known as melting.


Question 25.


The freezing point of water is ______.


  1.     100C
  2.     100C
  3.     10C
  4.     0C
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 0C
:
D
The temperature at which a liquid converts to a solid is called its freezing point.
The freezing point of water is 0C.
Question 26.


When water is kept below its freezing point it turns into 


  1.     liquid
  2.     ice
  3.     steam
  4.     water vapour
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> ice
:
B

When water is below its freezing point, water particles come closer. Their interparticle forces of attraction increases and they form a rigid structure called ice.


Question 27.


__________ is a physical process through which a solid is converted into a liquid.


  1.     Freezing
  2.     Cooling
  3.     Melting
  4.     Condensation
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Melting
:
C

Melting is a physical process through which a solid is converted into a liquid. When a solid is heated, the distance between the particles increases, forces of attraction decreases. Eventually, the solid converts to liquid.


Question 28.


Liquid water + _____  Water vapour.


  1.     Liquid
  2.     Heat
  3.     Ice
  4.     Dry ice
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Heat
:
B

When heat is supplied to liquid water it converts to water vapour (gaseous state). 


Question 29.


A solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in the given amount of solvent is called as a/an ______ solution.


  1.     unsaturated
  2.     hard
  3.     weak
  4.     saturated
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> saturated
:
D

A saturated solution is a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in solvent without heating the solution.


Question 30.


Which of these substances are in a liquid state at room temperature?


  1.     Steel
  2.     Cardboard
  3.     Water
  4.     Iron
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Water
:
C

Among the given, water is the substance which is in the liquid state at room temperature.
