Match the column
| Column A | Column B |
| (a) Blowing air increases | (1) Increase in intermolecular separation |
| (b) Increase in pressure increases | (2) Pendulum of a clock |
| (c) Thermal expansion |
(3) Cooking utensils |

Select the correct alternative
In evaporation
all molecules of liquid begin to escape out
only the molecules at the surface escape out
the temperature of liquid rises by absorbing heat from surroundings.
the molecules get attracted within the liquid.
The rate of evaporation of a liquid increases when:
temperature of liquid falls
liquid is poured in a vessel of less surface area
air is blown above the surface of liquid
humidity increases
During boiling or vaporization
all molecules take part
temperature rises
no heat is absorbed
the average kinetic energy of molecules increases.
The boiling point of a liquid is increased by
increasing the volume of liquid
increasing the pressure, on liquid
adding ice to the liquid
decreasing pressure on liquid.
Two rods A and B of the same metal, but of length 1 m and 2 m respectively, are heated from 0°C to 100°C. Then
both the rods A and B elongate the same
the rod A elongates more than the rod B
the rod B elongates more than the rod A
the rod A elongates, but the rod B contracts.
Two rods A and B of the same metal, same length, but one solid and the other hollow, are heated to the same rise in temperature.
the solid rod A expands more than the hollow rod B
the hollow rod B expands more than the solid rod A
the hollow rod B contracts, but the solid rod A expands
both the rods A and B expand the same.
A given volume of alcohol and the same volume of water are heated from the room temperature to the same temperature then.
alcohol contracts, but water expands
water contracts, but alcohol expands
water expands more than alcohol
alcohol expands more than water.
The increase in length of a metal rod depends on
the initial length of the rod only
the rise in temperature only
the material of rod only
all the above three factors.
The correct statement is
Iron rims are cooled before they are placed on the cart wheels.
A glass stopper gets tighten on warming the neck of the bottle.
Telephone wires sag in winter but become tight in summer.
A little space is left between two rails on a railway track.
