Which of the following is a change from a more condensed to a less condensed state of matter?

A). Freezing

B). Condensing

C). Evaporating

D). Solidifying

Evaporating is the change from a more condensed to a less condensed state of matter.

Answer: C

Explanation

The matter is classified fundamentally in three states. They are solid, liquid and gas.

Among the three states, the solids are the most condensed state as the atoms are arranged densely, then the liquid have less condensed state than solid and gas is the least condensed state.

The inter-conversion of states of matter can occur on providing external energy.

The options given here like freezing and solidifying is the inter-conversion of liquid state to solid state which means that the change occurring from less condensed state to more condensed state.

The other option like condensing is the inter-conversion of gas state to liquid state which is also the change occurring from less condensed state to more condensed state.

The left option i. e., evaporating is termed as the inter-conversion from liquid state to gas state.

As liquid is more condensed than gas, so the evaporating is the change occurring from more condensed state to less condensed state.

Thus, evaporating is the change from more condensed to less condensed state of matter among the four options.

The answer will be Condensing
