  1. Question 1

    What does a liquid turn into once it is evaporated?

    • AGas
    • BWater vapours
    • CAir
    • DBoth (a) and (b)
    Show answer

    Answer: D

    On evaporation a liquid changes into a gas (for water, water vapour).

  2. Question 2

    The change of a solid to a liquid is called:

    • Amelting
    • Bboiling
    • Ccondensation
    • Dsolidification
    Show answer

    Answer: A

    Absorbing energy may turn a solid into a liquid, called melting.

  3. Question 3

    The change of a liquid to a gas on absorbing energy is known as:

    • Acondensation
    • Bsolidification
    • Cboiling
    • Dmelting
    Show answer

    Answer: C

    Liquid to gas is known as boiling.

  4. Question 4

    The change of a gas to a liquid on losing energy is called:

    • Amelting
    • Bcondensation
    • Cboiling
    • Dsolidification
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    Losing energy may turn a gas to a liquid, called condensation.

  5. Question 5

    The change of a liquid to a solid is known as:

    • Asolidification
    • Bmelting
    • Cboiling
