1. Evaporation is always accompanied by decrease in temperature.
2. 150oC = 423K
3. A homogeneous mixture has no distinguishable boundary between its components.
4. An example of a substance that sublimes is naphthalene
5. Latent heat is the energy used for inter conversion of matter

V. Short answer:

1. Why is it possible to row a boat in water but not pass through a wooden fence.
Ans: There are gaps between the molecules of water.

2. How does gaseous pressure arise?
Ans: The rapid motion and collision of molecules with the walls of the container causes pressure.

3. Define sublimation?
Ans: The process of conversion of matter from solid state directly into vapour state (without going to liquid state).

4. Which state of matter has the highest kinetic energy?
Ans: Gaseous state of matter.

5. A few drops of ‘dettol’ when added to water the mixture turns turbid. Why?
Ans: The oil droplets of dettol get suspended in water and create an emulsion.

VI. Short answer:

1. Why are gases easily compressible whereas solids are incompressible?
