Question

57 During summer, Boojho carries water in a transparent plastic bottle to his school. One day he left his bottle in the school. The bottle still had some water left in it. The following day, he observed some water droplets on the inner surface of the empty portion of the bottle. These droplets of water were formed due to

Solution

The correct option is C

evaporation and condensation


An explanation for the correct option:

(C) Evaporation and condensation

Evaporation

The process of conversion of water into its vapor or liquid into a gas is called evaporation.

  • It is used to get a solid substance that is dissolved in water or another liquid.

Condensation

The process of conversion of water vapor into its liquid form is called condensation. Example: The morning dew on the grass.

The water in the plastic bottles heats up and evaporates throughout the summer. When the evaporated water collides with the bottle's cover, it condenses into water droplets. These water droplets subsequently gather on the bottle's empty portion.

The explanation for incorrect options:

Boiling

Boiling is an unnatural process in which a liquid is heated and evaporated as a result of continuous heating. Evaporation normally takes place on the surface of the heated liquid. Boiling normally occurs throughout the full mass of the heated liquid.

Saturation

Saturation solution: A solution in which no more soluble substance can be dissolved at room temperature or a given temperature.

Saturation is the point at which a solution of a substance can dissolve no more of that substance and an additional amount of heat substance will appear as a precipitate.

Final answer: The correct answer is an option (C)
