Question

What is inter-conversion of states of matter?

Answer 1

Answer:

Interconversion of matter refers to the change of one state to another. It is a process by which matter changes from one state to another and back to its original state, without any change in its chemical composition. Solid can be converted into liquids by heating.

Answer 2

Inter-conversion of matter:

• Inter-conversion of matter refers to the change of a one state to another.
• It is a process by which matter changes from one state to the another and back to its original state, without any change in its chemical composition. Solid can be converted into liquids by heating.

Example:

       Ice (solid) on increasing the temperature ie,. at room temperature   change into water (liquid), on further heating changes to steam (gas).

Changes in the condition:

• Changing the temperature.
• Increasing or decreasing the pressure.
• Changing both temperature and pressure.

States of matter:

Vaporization:

       Vaporization of an element or compound is a phase transition from the liquid phase to vapor.

               Eg,. boiling point of water.

Freezing:

     Freezing or solidification , is an phase transition in which liquid turns into a solid when the temperature is lowered below its freezing point.

                       Eg,. liquid water turning to ice.

Sublimation:

        Sublimation  is the transition of a substance directly from the soild to the gas phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase.      

                            Eg,.Dry ice and iodine sublimes.

Condensation:

       Condensation is the changes of the state of matter from the gas phase into the liquid phase and is the reverse of vaporization.

             Eg,. morning Dew on the grass, rain falling down, fog in the air .
