Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Liquid is a __________ of matter

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "state" because liquid is one of the three states of matter, along with solid and gas. In the liquid state, the molecules are close together but can still move freely, allowing the substance to take the shape of its container.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    Syrup, honey, liquid soap, oil and paint are all ____________

    Explanation
    The given answer is correct because all the mentioned substances - syrup, honey, liquid soap, oil, and paint - are in a liquid state. Liquids are substances that have a definite volume but no definite shape, and they can flow and take the shape of their container.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Liquids take the ____ of their container.

    Explanation
    Liquids have the ability to conform to the shape of their container. This is because the particles in a liquid are not tightly packed together and have more freedom to move than in a solid. As a result, they can flow and take on the shape of the container they are in.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Liquids that flow quickly are___________, like water, juice and milk.

    Explanation
    Liquids that flow quickly are thin because thin liquids have a low viscosity, meaning they have a low resistance to flow. Water, juice, and milk are examples of liquids that have a low viscosity and flow easily.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Liquids that flow slowly are __________, like honey, paint and glue.

    Explanation
    Liquids that flow slowly are referred to as "thick". This term is used to describe substances like honey, paint, and glue, which have a high viscosity and do not easily pour or spread. The thickness of these liquids makes them more resistant to flow, resulting in a slower movement compared to thinner liquids.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    The amount of ____ a liquid takes up is called its volume.

    Explanation
    The amount of space a liquid takes up is called its volume. In other words, volume refers to the physical extent or size of a liquid. It represents the three-dimensional capacity or amount of room occupied by the liquid.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Tools used to measure volume of the liquids: measuring ________, graduated cylinder, spoon or beaker.

    Explanation
    The answer "cup" is correct because it is one of the tools commonly used to measure the volume of liquids. Cups are often used in cooking and baking to measure liquid ingredients. They come in various sizes and have markings on the side to indicate different volume measurements. While other tools like graduated cylinders, spoons, and beakers can also be used to measure volume, a cup is a simple and convenient option for everyday use.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    The units of volume are milliliters (________) or liters (________).

    Explanation
    The units of volume can be measured in milliliters (mL) or liters (L). Milliliters are used for smaller volumes, while liters are used for larger volumes. Both units are commonly used in scientific and everyday measurements.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    The volume of the same amount of liquid does __________ from container to container

    Explanation
    The volume of liquid remains constant and does not change when it is transferred from one container to another. This is because the volume of a substance is a physical property that is independent of the container it is placed in. Therefore, regardless of the shape or size of the container, the amount of liquid will always occupy the same volume.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    When liquid is poured into container, the shape of the liquid ___________.but its volume stays the __________

    Explanation
    When liquid is poured into a container, the shape of the liquid changes to fit the shape of the container. However, the volume of the liquid remains the same. This is because the volume of a substance is a measure of the amount of space it occupies, and pouring it into a different container does not change the amount of liquid present. The shape of the liquid can vary depending on the shape of the container, but the overall volume remains constant.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    Matter can have three ___________: gas like air, liquid like water and solid like stones.

    Explanation
    Matter can exist in three different forms or states: gas, liquid, and solid. These states are determined by the arrangement and movement of particles within the substance. In the gas state, particles are widely spaced and move freely. In the liquid state, particles are closer together and can move past one another. In the solid state, particles are tightly packed and vibrate in fixed positions. These states of matter have distinct physical properties and behaviors, which are important in understanding the behavior and characteristics of different substances.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    A _________ is state of matter that has no definite shape or size like helium or neon.

    Explanation
    A gas is a state of matter that does not have a definite shape or size, such as helium or neon. Gases are composed of particles that are widely separated and move freely, filling the space available to them. They can be compressed or expanded easily and have low density compared to solids and liquids. Gases also have the ability to diffuse and mix with other gases.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    Gas occupies all __________ it can ( sine gas has no definite size). Air freshener in a room can be smelled anywhere in the room.

    Explanation
    Gas molecules are not bound by a definite size or shape, allowing them to spread out and occupy all available space. This is why air freshener, which is in the form of a gas, can be smelled anywhere in a room. The molecules of the air freshener disperse throughout the room, filling the space and reaching our noses no matter where we are.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    A gas takes the shape of its container e.g the shape of the helium gas in a star-shaped balloon is a ___________ shape.

    Explanation
    The gas takes the shape of its container, meaning it will fill the available space regardless of the shape of the container. In this case, the helium gas in a star-shaped balloon will take on the shape of the balloon, which is a star shape.

    Air is made up of ____________

    Explanation
    Air is made up of gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other trace gases. These gases are essential for supporting life on Earth. Nitrogen makes up the majority of the atmosphere, while oxygen is vital for respiration. Carbon dioxide plays a role in the Earth's climate system. Other gases like argon, helium, and methane are present in smaller amounts. Together, these gases create the composition of air that we breathe.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    The state of matter of the air in a balloon or ball is __________

    Explanation
    The state of matter of the air in a balloon or ball is gas because air is composed of various gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and other trace gases. In a balloon or ball, the air molecules are not tightly packed together like in a solid or liquid, but instead, they are spread out and move freely. This allows the air to fill the entire volume of the balloon or ball, making it a gas.
