Liquid State of Matter

What is the defining characteristic of a liquid?

• Definite shape and volume

• Definite shape but no volume

• No definite shape but definite volume

• No definite shape or volume

What is evaporation?

• The conversion of liquid into solid

• The conversion of liquid into gas

• The conversion of gas into liquid

• The conversion of solid into liquid

What factors affect the rate of evaporation?

• Surface area, temperature, and intermolecular forces

• Volume, pressure, and density

• Mass, velocity, and energy

• Color, texture, and odor

What is vapor pressure?

• The pressure exerted by the vapors of a liquid in equilibrium state

• The pressure exerted by the vapors of a liquid during evaporation

• The pressure exerted by the vapors of a liquid at boiling point

• The pressure exerted by the vapors of a liquid at freezing point

Which factor does not affect the vapor pressure of a liquid?

• Nature of the liquid

• Intermolecular forces

• Size of the molecules

• Temperature

What is the boiling point of a liquid?

• The temperature at which the liquid turns into a gas

• The temperature at which the liquid turns into a solid

• The temperature at which the liquid starts evaporating

• The temperature at which the liquid starts freezing

Which factor does not affect the boiling point of a liquid?

• Nature of the liquid

• External pressure

• Temperature

• Size of the molecules

What is the freezing point of a liquid?

• The temperature at which the liquid turns into a gas

• The temperature at which the liquid turns into a solid

• The temperature at which the liquid starts evaporating

• The temperature at which the liquid starts boiling

What is diffusion in liquids?

• The movement of liquid molecules from lower concentration to higher concentration

• The movement of liquid molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration

• The movement of liquid molecules from solid to liquid state

• The movement of liquid molecules from gas to liquid state

What is the density of a liquid?

• The measure of how heavy a liquid is

• The measure of how light a liquid is

• The measure of how viscous a liquid is

• The measure of how volatile a liquid is
