solid
liquid
gas
Arjun, Sophia, and Aria are conducting a science experiment. They observe that when they freeze water into ice or boil it into steam, energy is either absorbed or released. Based on their observation, they conclude that all phase changes (changing states) require energy to be added or taken away. Is their conclusion correct?

Condensation
Melting
Sublimation
Evaporation
Mia, Ethan, and Abigail are at a beach on a hot summer day. They notice their wet clothes drying up quickly. Why does this evaporation occur?
Air particles bounce off the liquid particles on their clothes, giving them energy to evaporate
Liquid particles on their clothes bouncing off the sand
Liquid particles on their clothes don't want to hang out anymore
When the liquid on their clothes reaches a certain temperature
Why does condensation occur on the outside of a cold water bottle that Michael, Daniel, and Noah left out during their picnic?
Liquid particles from the water bottle diffuse through the bottle and appear on the outside
Heat energy from the sun causes the water bottle to become a liquid
