STATES OF MATTER MCQs
:
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.
:
A
Matter is anything which has mass and occupies space. It can be felt and sensed by our five senses.
:
C
Gases have indefinite shape and size. Particles of gases move around freely and have very weak forces of attraction between them.
:
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.
:
D
The temperature at which a liquid converts to a solid is called its freezing point.
The freezing point of water is 0∘C.
:
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.
:
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.
:
B
When heat is supplied to liquid water it converts to water vapour (gaseous state).
:
D
A saturated solution is a solution in which no more solute can be dissolved in solvent without heating the solution.
:
C
Among the given, water is the substance which is in the liquid state at room temperature.
