Question

which change of state is shown in the model?
condensation
evaporation
sublimation
deposition

Explanation:

1. Analyze each option:

• Condensation: Gas to liquid (opposite of what's shown).
• Evaporation: Liquid to gas (particles spread out, moving from a condensed liquid state to a more spread - out gaseous - like state as shown in the model where particles go from being closely packed (liquid) to more dispersed (gas)).
• Sublimation: Solid to gas (the initial state here looks like liquid, not solid).
• Deposition: Gas to solid (opposite of what's shown).

1. So the correct process is evaporation.

Answer:

evaporation
