OBJECTIVE QUESTIONS

Each question is followed by four options. Choose the best option for each question then darken the
correct space on the Objective heet.

1. Gases, liquids and solids are all made up of microscopic particles but the behaviors of these
particles differ in the three phases. The following diagrams represent the arrangement of these
particles in its different states, A, B and C at room temperature.

Particles in the gaseous state are well separated with no regular arrangement, while particles in
the liquid state are close together with no regular arrangement. Particles in the solid state are
tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.

Based on the information above, what is the most likely arrangement of particles in the
respective regions D and E of an ice-cube in the process of melting?

Region D Region E
1 State A State A
2 State A State B
3 State B State C
4 State C State B

A1 B 2 C 3 D 4

2. In which changes do the particlesmove further apart?

W X
Gas ⇌liquid ⇌solid
Y Z

A W and X B W and Z C X and Y D Y and Z
