Section A
This section contains 15 questions each of 4M. Read all questions and options carefully and
tick the correct option.
Q-1 4M

Name the given process. At which temperature the process will be faster
And why?
a- Melting, at 40oC as particles have more kinetic energy.
b- Diffusion, at 40oC as particles have less kinetic energy.
c- Spreading, at 80oC as particles have more kinetic energy.
d- Diffusion, at 80oC as particles have more kinetic energy.

Q-2 4M
We must leave small gaps on the sidewalks to avoid breaking
of the road as shown in the picture because _______________.

a- During summer particles move faster and roads

gets reduced in size called thermal contraction.
b- During winter particles move faster and roads
gets reduced in size called thermal contraction.
c- During summer particles move faster and roads
gets increased in size called thermal expansion.
d- During winter particles move slowly and roads
gets increased in size called thermal expansion.
