Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.28 Energy Changes during Phase Changes skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Situation: A lake surface freezes in winter. Which statement links particle motion to the state change?

AThe phase change happens without any thermal energy transfer.

BThe particles stop existing when the state changes.

CMatter disappears during the state change.

DThe water loses thermal energy and becomes solid ice at the surface.

Solution & Explanation:Phase changes happen when thermal energy is added or removed. The particles remain matter, but their motion and arrangement change.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Situation: Wet clothes dry in warm air. Which statement links particle motion to the state change?

AThe phase change happens without any thermal energy transfer.

BThe particles stop existing when the state changes.

CLiquid water evaporates into water vapor.

DMatter disappears during the state change.

Solution & Explanation:Phase changes happen when thermal energy is added or removed. The particles remain matter, but their motion and arrangement change.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Situation: Liquid metal cools in a mold. Which statement links particle motion to the state change?

AThe phase change happens without any thermal energy transfer.

BThermal energy is removed and the liquid becomes solid.

CThe particles stop existing when the state changes.

DMatter disappears during the state change.

Solution & Explanation:Phase changes happen when thermal energy is added or removed. The particles remain matter, but their motion and arrangement change.
