  • Term used to change solid to gas
    Sublimation
  • In the video, how did he make clouds in a bottle?
    Compressed water vapour became small water droplets which came out as clouds
  • What causes water to change from liquid to solid?
    Water changes form in response to changing temperature. When it becomes colder,
  • What causes water to change from vapour to liquid?
    Water changes form in response to changing temperatures. When the temperature becomes colder, water vapor becomes liquid water
  • In the first expt in the video, water in which of the 3 paper sheets evaporated the fastest, and why?
    The sheet under the hottest lamp, increase in temperature increases the rate of evaporation
  • Why did the huge steel barrel collapse when put in an ice tub?
    gas quickly condensed to liquid. Outside pressure being more than inside, quickly crushed the barrel
  • How do we know there is Water Vapour in the Air?
    Some evidence that there is water vapor in the air include clouds, feeling moisture on our skin on a humid day, and seeing droplets form on the outside surface
  • Does Water become cleaner when it becomes water vapour? Give reason
    Yes, generally, water becomes cleaner when it evaporates. Particles in water typically do not evaporate into vapor when water does, so particles are left behind
  • What is Precipitation? Name the different forms
    When water falls to the ground - Rain, Snow, Hail
  • Term used to change liquid to gas. Give example
    Evaporation
  • What happenned to the dirt and grass in the DIY Solar bowl? Explain the expt
    Dirt and grass got left behind. Only water evaporated
  • Define Condensation
    When gas turns to liquid
  • Term used to change gas directly to a solid. Give example
    Deposition. Sub freezing air changing directly to Ice
