Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (d) i-2, ii-1, iii-5, iv-4, v-3
Explanation
- (i) Sublimation → 2: a solid changes directly into a gas without melting, as camphor, naphthalene and iodine do.
- (ii) Distillation → 1: separates liquids by their boiling points: the liquid is boiled and its vapour condensed.
- (iii) Evaporation → 5: a liquid turns into vapour at its surface at any temperature below its boiling point.
- (iv) Filtration → 4: separates an insoluble solid from a liquid through filter paper.
- (v) Condensation → 3: a gas turns into a liquid on cooling.
So the code is i-2, ii-1, iii-5, iv-4, v-3.
