Question

The diagram below shows the different phase transitions that occur in matter. Which arrow would most likely represent the phase change that occurs when silver is poured into a mold and cools to become a solid bar?
1

3

4

5

Answer 1

Answer: Arrow 5

Explanation: When liquid silver is poured into a mold and cools down to become solid bar is a transition in which liquid phase is converting into solid phase which is known as freezing and is represented by arrow 5.

Arrow 1 represent the vaporization process where liquid state changes to gaseous state.

Arrow 2 represent the Fusion process where solid state changes to liquid state.

Arrow 3 represent the sublimation process where solid state changes to gaseous state by escaping liquid state.

Arrow 4 represent the condensation process where gaseous state changes to liquid state.

Arrow 5 represent the freezing in which liquid changes to solid state.

Arrow 6 represent the deposition process where gaseous state changes to solid state by escaping liquid state.

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is arrow number 5.

Explanation:

When an liquid silver is poured into a mold and cools down to become solid bar is a transition in which liquid phase is converting into solid phase which is termed as solidification represented by arrow number 5.

Where as other arrows represent:

Arrow 1 represent the vaporization process where liquid state changes to gaseous state.

Arrow 2 represent the Fusion process where solid state changes to liquid state.

Arrow 3 represent the sublimation process where solid state changes to gaseous state by escaping liquid state.

Arrow 4 represent the condensation process where gaseous state changes to liquid state.

Arrow 6 represent the deposition process where gaseous state changes to solid state by escaping liquid state.
