d. Assertion is false but Reason is true

11. Assertion: Most of the solid, liquid and gases can diffuse into liquids.
Reason: Liquids cannot change its shape

12. Assertion: Naphthalene does not leave any residue when kept open for sometime
Reason: The conversion of a solid directly into gas is called Condensation.

13. Assertion: During evaporation of liquids, the temperature remains unaffected.

Reason: Kinetic energy is directly proportional to absolute temperature.

14. Assertion: There is no change in the temperature of a substance when it undergoes a

change of state though it is still being heated.
Reason: The heat supplied is absorbed either as latent heat of fusion or as latent heat of vapourisation.

15. Assertion: The intermolecular forces in solid state are stronger than in liquid state.
Reason: The space between the particles of matter is called intermolecular space.

was thoroughly surrounded by ice. A student heats the beaker containing ice and water. The beaker is now slowly
heated and temperature was regularly noted. Temperature rises gradually as the heating is continued and becomes
constant when ice starts changing into liquid.

a. Identify the process associated with conversion of ice into water.

b. What specific name is given to the constant temperature?

c. He measures the temperature of the content of the beaker as a function of time. Which of the following would
correctly represent the result? Justify your choice.

OR

c. Water as ice has a cooling effect, whereas water as steam may cause severe burns. Explain these
observations.

14 a. Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
15 b. Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
16 a. Fusion of Solid
b. Melting Point

c. When we heat the mixture, the energy supplied is utilized to melt the ice, and the
temperature does not change until all the ice melts because of the latent heat of fusion. On
further heating, the temperature of the water would increase. So, graph (d) correctly
represents the result.

OR
c. Water turns into ice when the temperature decreases to 0°C. Water turns into steam at 100°C
when heat is supplied to the water. Water as steam has more latent heat, while water as liquid
does not. Hence, water as steam may cause severe burns, while water as ice has a cooling effect.

17 a. This observation indicates that particles of water have spaces between them into which
sugar particles fit.
b. When Dettol is added to water, diffusion takes place.

18 Priya would be more comfortable than Ali. The reason is that we get a lot of sweat in our bodies
on a hot summer day. Cotton is a good absorber of water. It absorbs sweat from the body and
provides a larger surface area for evaporation which causes a more cooling effect. Nylon does not
absorb sweat, so the sweat does not evaporate, and Ali would feel uncomfortable.

19 a. In gases, the particles move randomly at high speed and they collide with each other and with
the walls of the container. b. Evaporation

20 ‘A’ is a gas.

Properties of gases

• They do not have fixed shape and fixed volume.

• They have large interparticle space.
• They have least forces of attraction between the molecules.
• They are highly compressible.
21 a. The liquid form of water converts into gaseous form in steam.
Its particles move very rapidly in all the directions and fill the kitchen as gases completely
fills the vessel.
b. Evaporation produces cooling as the particles at the surface of the liquid gain energy from
the surroundings and change into vapour, thereby producing a cooling effect.

c. A sponge has minute holes in which air is trapped. Also, the material is not rigid. When we
press it, the air is expelled out and we are able to compress it. But it is a solid because it has
definite shape and volume and does not change its shape unless compressed.
22 ‘X’ is gas at room temperature.
‘Y’ is solid at room temperature.
‘Z’ is liquid at room temperature.

23 a. Diffusion. The intermixing of particles of different types of matter on their own. b.

liquid, gaseous state
c. Deposition
d. The rate of evaporation increases with the increase in surface area and wind speed. The
surface areas of vessels C, A and D are similar, but the wind speed is more above vessel C
because of the fan. Hence the rate of evaporation will be highest in vessel
