  1. What process happens when a solid can be observed to 'disappear' in a liquid to make a solution?
  2. When a process is able to go backwards, or be "undone", it is said to be ___.
  3. Match the word to the definition.
  4. Put the following changes of state for ice/water in order starting from the one that requires the lowest temperature to the one that requires the highest temperature.
  5. A volume of salt solution containing 0.5 g of salt was placed in a beaker and left for 2 weeks on the windowsill, after which only crystals of salt remained. How much salt would be present?
