Which of the following can transform matter from one state to another?
Which of the following can transform matter from one state to another?
The correct options are
A Increasing/decreasing the temperature
C Increasing/decreasing the pressure
Particles in solids have lesser kinetic energy when compared to liquids and gases. As temperature increases, the state changes from solids to liquids and then to gases.
As the pressure increases, the volume of the container decreases. As we know, in solids, particles are much closer to each other and the distance between the particles increases as we move towards the gaseous state. So, with the increase in pressure, gases can be converted to liquids and then to solids.
Increasing/decreasing the concentration only changes the concentration of particles of matter and not the state. Increasing/decreasing the mass only changes the quantity of matter and not the state of matter.
