Section B. (13 marks)

Write your answers for questions 8-11 in the spaces provided.

8. Fill in the boxes with the correct processes responsible for the following observations. (2m)

Observations Process
(a) Mirror getting misty after hot
condensation
shower
(b) Drying up of sweat evaporation
oC
(c) Water at 100 boiling
(d) Rain to hailstone freezing

9. The diagram below shows two glasses, P and Q at room temperature. Johnny pours
orange juice into glass P and hot Milo into glass Q.

(a) On the diagram above, draw water droplets that you will observe on the surface of the
two glasses after a short while. (2 m)

(b) Explain how the water droplets you have drawn for glass P was formed. (2 m)

______________________________________________________________________
As the warm water vapour from the surrounding touches the cold surface of the
glass, it loses heat and condenses to water droplets.

10. Mikey lowered a container of marbles slowly into a tank of water as shown below.

(a) What observations would be made as the container of marbles was placed into the
tank? (1m)

_____________________________________________________________________
The water level rises.

(b) Explain your answer in (a). (2 m)

_____________________________________________________________________
Matter has volume. The volume of the marbles is the same volume of water displaced.

11. Dave heated some water at room temperature for 8 minutes. During this period, the water
boiled. He recorded the temperature of the water every 2 minutes. The results are shown in
the graph below:

100 oC

25 oC

(a) The room temperature was 25 oC. Mark and label the two temperatures, 25 oC and 100
oC in the graph above. (2 m)

(b) What does the line AB tell you about the temperature of the water? (1 m)
The temperature of water is decreasing
_____________________________________________________________________

(c) If Dave did not stop heating the water throughout the experiment, suggest a possible
reason for the change in temperature at AB. (1 m)

Ice cubes maybe added on the boiling water.
