Liquids and solids are referred to as “condensed phases” because the attractive forces

A
cause molecules to become stationary.
B
leave little space between the molecules.
C
create large spaces between the molecules.
D
that hold the molecules together are negligible.
3

Which term best describes the substances that cause oil and water molecules in salad dressing to interact and mix?

A
surfactants
B
miscible liquids
C
immiscible liquids
D
compressed molecules
4

The particles in water have less mobility than the particles in oxygen. Which statement best explains this observation?

A
Water is always colder than oxygen.
B
Water has a lower density than oxygen.
C
Water particles have a greater kinetic energy.
D
Water particles have strong intermolecular forces.
5

Melting can be best described as a process in which molecules

A
lose kinetic energy and move slowly.
B
lose kinetic energy and remain stationary.
C
gain kinetic energy and escape into the atmosphere.
D
gain enough kinetic energy to get past each other.
6

What happens when a solid is dissolved into a liquid?

A
Solid particles float toward the surface layer of liquid particles.
B
Solid particles sink down toward the bottom layer of liquid particles.
C
Solid particles become evenly dispersed among liquid particles.

Carla makes a small cardboard boat and floats it in a tub of water. When she adds a drop of dish soap behind the boat, the boat moves forward.Which statement best explains what happened?

A
The soap increased the viscosity of the water behind the boat, allowing the water in front of the boat to flow more easily.
B
The soap reduced the surface tension behind the boat, causing both water molecules and the boat to be pulled forward.
C
The soap increased the kinetic energy of the water molecules behind the boat, causing both the molecules and the boat to move forward.
D
The soap formed an immiscible layer on the water, causing the soap to spread out and push the boat forward.
9

Why are liquids well suited for hydraulics?

A
Liquids have low densities.
B
Liquids are incompressible.
C
Liquids change volume easily.
D
Liquids have few molecules.
