The turbid liquid was also called liquid crystals due to the presence of some degree of:
Correct answer: B. Order
- A. Heat
- B. Order
- C. Hotness
- D. Coldness
Explanation
OPTION A: The turbid liquids are called liquid crystals due to the presence of ordered molecular arrangements, not due to the presence of heat.OPTION B: A physicist who examined this material recognized that the cloudy liquid had a certain degree of order; he proposed that it was a hitherto unknown state of matter, and suggested the name "liquid crystals". OPTION C: Hotness is not related to the formation of liquid crystals.OPTION D: Turbid liquids are called liquid crystals not due to coldness, but due to their molecular arrangement that results in partial light polarization and reflection, giving them a cloudy appearance.

About Properties of Liquids
Liquid behavior depends on intermolecular forces, which produce surface tension, viscosity, capillary action and a definite volume without a fixed shape. The topic also covers vapor pressure, evaporation, boiling point and the effect of temperature and external pressure, while distinguishing evaporation at the surface from boiling throughout the liquid.
