Some statements about boiling and evaporation are below. Which is incorrect?
Boiling occurs at the liquid surface.
Boiling forms bubbles as liquid turns to gas.
Evaporation occurs at any temperature.
Rate of evaporation is affected by exposed surface area of the liquid.
The bar graph shows the temperature at which some substances change state.
Which substance freezes at 800 degC?
carbon dioxide
ethanol
sodium chloride
water
When rubbed with ethanol the hand feels cold because ...
the temperature of the ethanol is lower than the body temperature
ethanol on the skin prevents the loss of heat from the body
thermal energy is transferred from ethanol to the body
heat is removed from the body as ethanol evaporates
Blocks of gold are made by pouring hot, melted gold into moulds. The gold cools to its melting point and begins to solidify. As it solidifies, its temperature ............................
stays constant and energy is lost from the gold
stays constant and no energy is lost from the gold
decreases and energy is lost from the gold
decreases and no energy is lost from the gold.
