(i) Higher the melting point of a substance, …… will be the force of attraction between its particles.

(ii) Particles from the bulk of the liquid gain energy to change into ……… state.


(iii) Naphthalene undergoes the process of ……….

i. lesser


The temperature at which solid melts to become a liquid at the atmospheric pressure is called its melting point. Higher the melting point of a substance, more easily the substance gets converted into a liquid which has less force of attraction between its particles.


ii. vapour


Boiling is a bulk phenomenon. Particles from the bulk of the liquid gain enough energy to change into the vapour state.


iii. Sublimation


Naphthalene undergoes the process of sublimation. Sublimation is a change of state directly from solid to gas without changing to liquid state or vice versa.
