Question

Match Column I with Column II and select the correct option from the codes given below

Column I	Column II
(a) Drying of clothes on a windy day	(i) Time taken for evaporation increases
(b) Liquefaction of gases	(ii) Decreasing pressure and increasing temperature
(c) Change in state of dry ice from solid to gas	(iii) Increasing pressure and decreasing temperature
(d) Less cooling effect of sweating in coastal areas	(iv) Rate of evaporation increases

• A. a - (i), b - (ii), c - (iii), d - (iv)
• B. a - (iv), b - (iii), c - (i), d - (ii)
• C. a - (iii), b - (iv), c - (ii), d - (i)
• D. a - (iv), b - (iii), c - (ii), d - (i)

Answer 1

The correct option is D a - (iv), b - (iii), c - (ii), d - (i)

• Drying of clothes on a windy day becomes easier because rate of evaporation increases. And this is because of wind as wind flows it takes water molecules along with it and evaporation increases.
• As we increase pressure and decreases temperature, gases liquify.
• Change in state of dry ice from solid to gas is sublimation and this happens as we increase temperature and decrease pressure.

Option $D$ is correct.
