    For the following questions, select the correct option.

    A. Both assertion and reason are true, and reason is correct explanation of assertion.
    B. Both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
    C. Assertion is true but reason is false.
    D. Assertion is false but reason is true.

    1. Assertion (A) : Matter can exist in all three stages.


    Reason (R) : Water can exist as ice and gaseous form.

    2. Assertion (A) : Ice converting to water is called melting.


    Reason (R) : The heat applied will result in breaking the bonds between the
    molecules of ice, thereby dissociation of molecules and transitioning to another state.

    3. Assertion (A) : Evaporation occurs on the surface of liquid, and it is a vaporization of


    liquid. It is a state of transition from liquid to gaseous state.
    Reason (R) : Evaporation occurs when there is exposure of water to air and water
    molecules change into vapor and these vapours rise up and form clouds.

    4. Assertion (A) : Strips of wet cloth are placed on the forehead of a person having high
    fever.
    Reason (R) : Water in the wet cloth evaporates and absorbs heat from the
    surrounding air.

    5. Three identical beakers I, II and III are taken and 20 mL water is poured in each
    beaker. Now, the beakers are heated at a temperature of 20°C, 30°C and 40°C
    respectively.
    The increasing order of the rate of evaporation in the three beakers is
    A beaker I < beaker II < beaker III
    B beaker II < beaker III < beaker I
    C beaker III < beaker II < beaker I
    D beaker II < beaker I < beaker III

    6. Pooja has three substances X, Y, Z. Her teacher asked her to label them as solid,
    liquid, and gas. She was told by her teacher that only Y and Z are easily compressible.
    Also, Y has definite volume but indefinite shape whereas Z neither has a definite
    shape nor a definite volume.
    What is X, Y, and Z respectively?
    A Solid, liquid, and gas
    B Solid, gas, and liquid
    C Liquid, solid, and gas
    D Liquid, gas, and solid

    7. As the summer season started, Reena observed that her mother hung a bed sheet
    soaked in water at the door of their bedroom. She felt a cool air every time the wind
    blew through the wet bed sheet.
    What would be the reason for Reena's observation of cool air blowing from the wet
    bed sheet?
    A Cooling through condensation
    B Cooling through evaporation
    C Decrease in humidity
    D Increase in temperature

    8. A few crystals of potassium permanganate were added to 50 mL of water in a beaker.


    Within a few seconds, the crystals got dissolved in water and gave purple colour to
    the entire solution.
    Which of the following statements is correct for the above observation?
    A Liquids have a definite volume.
    B Liquids can be compressed but only slightly.
    C The particles of matter possess kinetic energy.
    D The particles of matter are closely packed in solids.
