What is the process called when a solid turns directly into a gas?

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is an example of a solid transforming into a liquid?

• Ice melting into water

• Salt dissolving in water

• Steam condensing into water

• Water evaporating into vapor

Multiple Choice

How do the particles in a liquid behave?

• They are tightly packed and vibrate in place.

• They move freely and fill the entire container.

• They are far apart and move very quickly.

• They are fairly close together and move slightly.

Multiple Choice

What is one difference between a liquid and a solid?

• B) Liquids can easily be compressed, while solids cannot.
• A) Liquids have a definite shape, while solids do not.
• D) Liquids are less dense than solids.
• C) Liquids flow and take the shape of their container, while solids do not.

Multiple Choice

Which statement is true about liquids?

• Liquids can only exist in solid form.

• Liquids have a fixed volume but no shape.

• Liquids cannot flow or move.

• Liquids take the shape of the container they are in.

Multiple Choice

Why are liquids difficult to compress?

• Because the particles are in a fixed position.

• Because the particles are loosely arranged.

• Because the particles are highly attracted to each other.

• Because the particles flow and have little space between them.

Multiple Choice

What happens when a liquid absorbs heat and reaches its boiling point?

• It turns into a solid.

• It stays a liquid.

• It becomes more dense.

• It becomes a gas.

Multiple Choice

• 25°C

• 100°F

• 0°C

Multiple Choice

How do the particles in a gas behave?

• They are tightly packed and vibrate in place.

• They are fairly close together and move slightly.

• They are stuck together and cannot move.

• They are far apart and move quickly in all directions.

Multiple Choice

Which statement is true about gases?

• Gases have a definite volume.

• Gases cannot be compressed at all.

• Gases take the shape of their container.

• Gases are solid at room temperature.

Multiple Choice

Why can gases be easily compressed?

• Because their particles are in a fixed position.
• Because their particles are heavy and dense.
• Because their particles are far apart.

• Because their particles are in a liquid state.

Multiple Choice

What is the density of gases like compared to solids and liquids?
A) Gases have a higher density than solids.
B) Gases have a higher density than liquids.
C) Gases have a lower density because there are fewer particles in a large space.
D) Gases have the same density as solids and liquids.

• Gases have a higher density than liquids.

• Gases have a higher density than solids.

• Gases have a lower density because there are fewer particles in a large space.

• Gases have the same density as solids and liquids.

Multiple Choice

What process turns a gas into a liquid?
