States of Matter

Feasible describes something that is capable of being done or achieved, often with practical considerations in mind. Option A captures this meaning perfectly. The other options are unrelated words.

To flay literally means to strip off the skin or hide, either of an animal or historically as a form of punishment. Option A correctly defines this term. Option C describes evaporate or vaporize, option B refers to submission, and option D means predecessors or heralds, all unrelated to skin removal.

"Transition" correctly describes a change from one state to another, specifically from gas to liquid. Condensation is the phase change process. "Temperature" is a measurement, not a process. "Termination" means ending, and "transfer" means moving something, neither of which accurately describes a phase change.

Effluvia refers to a noxious odor or vapor given off as an outflow or emission. It describes unpleasant smells, fumes, or vapors that emanate from something, often waste or decaying matter.

"Precipitant" refers to a substance that causes another substance in a chemical solution to precipitate, or separate out in solid form. The other options, such as "hag" or "bold," are completely unrelated to this chemical term.

Subdue can mean to make less intense, strong, or vivid - to soften or calm. For example, colors can be subdued, or emotions can be subdued. 'Less intense' captures this meaning well.

'Barm' specifically refers to yeast, especially the foam or froth on fermenting beer. In brewing, barm is the yeast used in fermentation. Options A, B, and D are incorrect - 'bubble', 'suds', and 'froth' refer to the appearance rather than the actual yeast substance.

'Comprise' means 'to be composed of' or 'to contain' - the whole comprises its parts. 'Consists' would need 'of' to be correct. 'Composed' needs 'is composed of' in passive voice. 'Comprises' alone is grammatically correct.

The parts compose (form) the whole. 'Compose' is transitive and doesn't need 'of'. 'Comprise of' is incorrect - comprise never takes 'of'. 'Compose of' is also wrong. 'Consists' would need 'of' and refers to the whole containing parts, not parts forming the whole.

Deliquesce means to melt away or dissolve, particularly becoming liquid. It can mean to melt, thaw, or weaken/dissolve gradually. Therefore 'All of the above' is correct as deliquesce encompasses all these related meanings.

Sauterne is a sweet white wine from the Sauternais region of France. It's known for its distinctive sweet flavor profile.

This state of matter has relatively low density and viscosity. It also has relatively great expansion and contraction with changes in pressure and temperature. It has the highest magnitude of internal energy among the three states of matter.

In an endothermic change, energy is absorbed. Heat has to be absorbed in fusion of ice to give water.

During adiabatic expansion, there is increase in volume without heat flow, in or out. Inside a refrigerator, due to the isolated system, the adiabatic expansion of refrigerator gases like freon takes place by using the heat from the gas itself. This causes lowering of temperature of the gas, i.e. cooling effect of the refrigerator.
