Where did the asteroids form?

a. between the rock/metal condensation line and the frost line.

b. inside the rock/metal condensation line.

c. beyond the frost line

d. none of the abov

Option (C)

Explanation:

The frost line is considered to be the line that is marked by the boundary between the terrestrial and the Jovian planets. It is the point from which the temperature decreases sufficiently, allowing the water vapor to change in to ice crystals. In space there is no pressure and so the water directly changes its state from vapor to solid (ice) state, skipping the liquid state because at low pressure or absence of pressure, liquid does not exist.

The asteroids are the remnants of the solar system. In addition to that, the formation of Jupiter in the past blocked the formation of planets between Mars and Jupiter and due to the influence of Jupiter's gravitational force, these asteroids scattered in this gap forming the asteroid belt. This asteroid belt is somewhere near the frost line.

Thus, the asteroids were formed beyond the frost line.

Hence, the correct answer is option (C).
