Change of State

Physics ⇒ Heat and Thermodynamics

Change of State starts at 8 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Change of State. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 10
A 250 g block of ice at 0°C is placed in a room at 25°C. How much heat is needed to completely melt the ice? (Latent heat of fusion = 334 J/g)
A 500 g sample of water at 100°C is to be converted to steam at 100°C. If the latent heat of vaporization is 2260 J/g, how much heat is required?
A student observes that naphthalene balls kept in a cupboard become smaller over time. Which change of state is responsible for this observation?
Calculate the amount of heat required to melt 200 g of ice at 0°C. (Latent heat of fusion of ice = 334 J/g)
Describe what happens to the particles of a solid as it is heated and changes into a liquid.
Describe what happens to the temperature of a substance during a change of state, such as melting or boiling, when heat is continuously supplied.
During which change of state is energy released by the substance?
Explain why ice at 0°C is more effective in cooling than water at 0°C.
Explain why steam at 100°C can cause more severe burns than boiling water at 100°C.
State the law that explains why temperature remains constant during a change of state.
What is the main difference between evaporation and boiling?
What is the term for the temperature at which a solid turns into a liquid?
When water boils at 100°C at standard atmospheric pressure, what is the state change occurring?
