Question

With reference to inter-conversion of matter – on the basis of kinetic theory – explain in brief the conversion of A liquid into a solid With special reference to inter-particle space & interparticle attraction at the different stages of conversion.

Answer 1

A liquid into a solid :

1. Potential energy (stored) is-released.
2. Inter-particle space-decreases.
3. Inter-particle attraction-increases. Particles are not in a position to be free.
4. Collision-decreases.
   Liquid changes into solid.
