What type of process occurs when solidified wax is converted to liquid wax on heating?
a endothermic
b exothermic
c decomposition
d reversible
e disintegration

Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we heat solidified wax then intermolecular boding between the molecules of wax decreases and the molecules will start to move rapidly from one place to another.

As a result, solid wax will change into liquid wax. This means that solidified wax molecules absorbed heat due to which intermolecular bondng between then weakened. Therefore, reaction is endothermic in nature.

Whereas when reactants have more energy than products in a chemical reaction then heat is released and the reaction is known as exothermic reaction.

In a decomposition reaction, a compound or molecule breaks to form two or more different substances.

For example,

And a in a reversible reaction, rate of forward reaction equals the rate of backward reaction.

On the other hand, disintegration is a nuclear decay reaction in which energy is released.

Thus, we can conclude that process which occurs when solidified wax is converted to liquid wax on heating is endothermic process.

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.
