Main stores of water Part 2

Question 1

Name and define the six processes that happen between water vapour (gas), solid water (ice) and liquid water

Answer 1

. Sublimation → solid water to water vapour (energy gained)

. Deposition → water vapour to solid water (energy lost)

. Condensation → water vapour to liquid water (energy lost)

. Evaporation → liquid water to water vapour (energy gained)

. Melting → solid water to liquid water (energy gained)

. Freezing → liquid water to solid water (energy lost)

Question 2

Term for melting and freezing

Answer 2

Latent heat of fusion

Question 3

Term for sublimation and deposition

Answer 3

Latent heat of sublimation

Question 4

Term for condensation and evaporation

Answer 4

Latent heat of vaporisation
