Which of the following diagrams accurately represents the interconversion of the three states of matter?
(Given: Solid, Liquid, Gas; and processes: Vaporisation, Solidification, Fusion, Condensation, Sublimation, Deposition)

- AFigure b
- BFigure a (Standard diagram showing Solid Liquid as Fusion, Liquid Gas as Vaporisation, Gas Solid as Deposition, and vice-versa)
- CFigure c
- DFigure d
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
The standard and correct cycle for the interconversion of states of matter is as follows:
1. Solid to Liquid: Fusion
2. Liquid to Gas: Vaporisation
3. Gas to Solid: Deposition
4. Solid to Gas: Sublimation
5. Gas to Liquid: Condensation
6. Liquid to Solid: Solidification
Figure 'a' accurately presents all these transitions with their correct scientific terms.
1. Solid to Liquid: Fusion
2. Liquid to Gas: Vaporisation
3. Gas to Solid: Deposition
4. Solid to Gas: Sublimation
5. Gas to Liquid: Condensation
6. Liquid to Solid: Solidification
Figure 'a' accurately presents all these transitions with their correct scientific terms.
