Select the statement that accurately describes the contents of the container after four hours.
There are more than 10 grams of water vapor in the bottle because gas takes up more space.
There are less than 10 grams of water vapor in the bottle because gas has less mass than liquids.
There is no water left in the bottle. It evaporated through the lid.
There are 10 grams of water vapor in the bottle.
The correct statement is: There are more than 10 grams of water vapor in the bottle because gas takes up more space.
Explanation: When water evaporates, it changes from a liquid to a gas (water vapor). The mass of the water remains the same, but in a gaseous state, it occupies more volume than it does as a liquid. Therefore, after four hours, even though some might evaporate, there is still more than 10 grams of water vapor present in the container because the total mass of water remains unchanged.
