Solution

i) Solid into liquid

a) When temperature increases, kinetic energy of particles increases.

b) inter particle space increases.

c) inter particle force of attraction decreases.

d) Collision between particle increases and solid get converted into liquids.

ii) A liquid into vapour.

a) When temperature increases, kinetic energy of particles increases.

b) inter particle space increases.

c) inter particle force of attraction decreases.

d) Collision between particle increases and solid get converted into liquids.

iii) Vapour into liquid.

a) When temperature decreases, kinetic energy of particles decreases.

b) Particles come closer to each other, hence interparticle space decreases.

c) interparticle force of attraction increases.

d) When force of attraction increases to a certain value, vapours get converted into liquids.

iv) A liquid into solid.

a) When temperature decreases, kinetic energy of particles decreases.

b) Particles come closer to each other, hence interparticle space decreases.

c) interparticle force of attraction increases.

d) When force of attraction increases to a certain value, vapours get converted into liquids.
