The correct Answer is:
To determine the temperature range in which substance 'X' exists as a liquid, we need to analyze the given melting and boiling points. 1. **Identify the Melting and Boiling Points**: - The melting point of substance 'X' is `-110°C`. - The boiling point of substance 'X' is `-85°C`. 2. **Understanding the States of Matter**: - A substance is solid below its melting point. - A substance is liquid between its melting point and boiling point. - A substance is gas above its boiling point. 3. **Determine the Temperature Range for Liquid State**: - Since the melting point is `-110°C`, the substance will be solid below this temperature. - Between `-110°C` and `-85°C`, the substance will exist as a liquid. - Above `-85°C`, the substance will be in the gaseous state. 4. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, substance 'X' will exist as a liquid in the temperature range of `-110°C` to `-85°C`. ### Final Answer: Substance 'X' exists as a liquid in the temperature range of `-110°C` to `-85°C`. ---
