<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The windward side</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

There are two sides of the mountain i.e windward side and leeward side. The windward side is that side of a mountain subject to the prevailing wind, and is thus the wetter side. When air reaches the mountain, it rises because the mountains are in the way. As the air rises, it cools, and because cool air can carry less moisture than warm air, there is usually snow or rainfall. So windward side cause rain or snow.

Answer: The correct answer is windward sides.

Explanation:

Sides of mountain:

  1. Windward side: Area or side where high rainfall occurs. Wind prevailing loose their moisture on this side which leads to high rainfall on this side.
  2. Leeward side : Area or side where low rainfall occurs.

Rain shadow is the dry area on the leeward sides of the mountainous area. As windward side blocks the moisture which prevents the rainfall on the Leeward sides.This effect is known as Rain shadow effect.

Which statements describe phase changes? Check all that apply. Particles in a liquid need to move more slowly in order to freeze
Kipish [7]

Answer: Statements (A), and (C) are correct.

Explanation:

The statements that are true are as follows.

  • Particles in a liquid need to move more slowly in order to freeze.

When a liquid freezes the molecules get attracted towards each other. This attraction of particles occurs slowly. Hence, this statement is true.

  • Attractive forces between the particles in a liquid are broken when a liquid boils.

When temperature is raised, the molecules in a liquid gains kinetic energy and start to move quickly in random directions. As a result, liquid state changes to gaseous state. Hence, this statement is true.

If the attractive force between gas molecules have to be increased, they should be moving slower instead because moving faster does not help attracting molecules together.

Hence, the statement particles in gas move fast enough to make more attractive forces when the gas condenses is not true.
