    Does a solid have a shape of its own?

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    A solid does have a shape of its own because it has a fixed volume and maintains its shape even when subjected to external forces. Unlike liquids and gases, solids have a definite shape due to the strong intermolecular forces that hold their particles closely together. This allows them to maintain their structure and resist deformation. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct in stating that a solid has a shape of its own.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    A solid does not have a liquid of its own. Solids have a fixed shape and volume, and their particles are tightly packed together. Liquids, on the other hand, have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container. So, solids do not possess a liquid phase that is unique to them.

    Does a gas have a shape of its own?

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Gas does not have a shape of its own. Unlike solids and liquids, gases do not have a definite shape and can expand to fill the entire space available to them. The particles in a gas move freely and are not held together in a fixed arrangement, allowing them to spread out and take the shape of their container. Therefore, the statement that a gas has a shape of its own is false.

    Does a liquid have a volume of its own?

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Liquids have their own volume because they take up space and have a definite shape that conforms to the container they are in. Unlike gases, which can expand or contract to fill any container, liquids have a fixed volume and cannot be compressed easily. Therefore, it is true that a liquid has a volume of its own.

    Explanation
    A gas does not have a volume of its own. Unlike solids and liquids, gases do not have a fixed shape or volume. They can expand and contract to fill the space available to them. The volume of a gas is determined by the container it is in.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    How do particles move through a solid?

    • A.

      Slowly

    • B.

      They Don't

    • C.

      Quickly

    Correct Answer
    B. They Don't
    Explanation
    Particles do not move through a solid because the particles in a solid are tightly packed together and held in fixed positions by strong forces of attraction. This lack of mobility prevents the particles from freely moving and flowing through the solid. Therefore, the correct answer is "They Don't".

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    How do particles move through a liquid?

    • A.

      Slowly

    • B.

      They Don't

    • C.

      Quickly

    Correct Answer
    A. Slowly
    Explanation
    Particles move through a liquid slowly because of the high viscosity of the liquid. Viscosity refers to the resistance of a fluid to flow, and liquids with high viscosity have strong internal friction that hinders the movement of particles. As a result, particles in a liquid experience a slower and more gradual movement compared to particles in a gas or a less viscous liquid.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    How do particles move through a gas?

    • A.

      Slowly

    • B.

      They Don't

    • C.

      Quickly

    Correct Answer
    C. Quickly
    Explanation
    Particles move quickly through a gas because they have high kinetic energy. Gas particles are in constant motion and collide with each other, transferring energy and momentum. These collisions cause the particles to move rapidly in random directions. The speed of gas particles is influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the mass of the particles. Therefore, the correct answer is "Quickly" as it accurately describes the movement of particles in a gas.

    Rain is an example of:

    • A.

      Condensation

    • B.

      Evaporation

    • C.

      Precipitation

    Correct Answer
    C. Precipitation
    Explanation
    Rain is an example of precipitation because it is a form of water that falls from the atmosphere to the Earth's surface. Precipitation includes any form of water, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail, that falls from the clouds due to the condensation of water vapor. In the case of rain, the water droplets in the clouds combine and become heavy enough to fall to the ground under the force of gravity. Therefore, precipitation is the correct term to describe rain.

    • C.

      Melting

    • D.

      Freezing

    Correct Answer
    B. Condensation
    Explanation
    Condensation is the process in which a substance changes from its gaseous state to its liquid state. This occurs when the gas loses heat energy and the particles slow down, coming closer together and forming liquid droplets. This process commonly happens when warm, moist air comes into contact with a colder surface, such as when water vapor in the air condenses on a cold window pane. Therefore, condensation is the correct answer for the given question.

    • C.

      Melting

    • D.

      Freezing

    Correct Answer
    A. Evaporation
    Explanation
    Evaporation is the process in which a liquid changes into a gas at a temperature below its boiling point. It occurs when the particles in the liquid gain enough energy to escape from the surface and become vapor. This process does not require the liquid to reach its boiling point, unlike boiling which occurs at the boiling point. Therefore, evaporation is the correct answer as it accurately describes the transformation of a liquid into a gas.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    Changing from a liquid to solid is:

    • A.

      Evaporation

    • B.

      Condensation

    • C.

      Melting

    • D.

      Freezing

    Correct Answer
    D. Freezing
    Explanation
    Freezing is the process in which a substance changes from a liquid state to a solid state due to the removal of heat energy. During freezing, the particles in the substance slow down and come closer together, forming a rigid structure. This is different from evaporation, which is the change from a liquid to a gas, and condensation, which is the change from a gas to a liquid. Melting, on the other hand, is the process of changing from a solid to a liquid state. Therefore, freezing is the correct answer as it specifically refers to the change from a liquid to a solid.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    Changing from a solid to liquid is:

    • A.

      Evaporation

    • B.

      Condensation

    • C.

      Melting

    • D.

      Freezing

    Correct Answer
    C. Melting
    Explanation
    Melting refers to the process in which a solid substance changes into a liquid state due to an increase in temperature. This occurs when the substance's particles gain enough energy to overcome the forces holding them in a fixed arrangement. As a result, the solid's structure breaks down, and it transforms into a liquid without changing its chemical composition. This explanation aligns with the given correct answer, "Melting."

    A way heat is produced

    • A.

      Precipitation

    • B.

      Burning

    • C.

      Condensation

    Correct Answer
    B. Burning
    Explanation
    Burning is a process that produces heat. When a substance undergoes combustion, it reacts with oxygen in the air and releases energy in the form of heat and light. This is a common way of producing heat, such as in fireplaces, stoves, or engines. During the burning process, the bonds between atoms in the fuel are broken, and new bonds are formed with oxygen atoms, resulting in the release of energy in the form of heat. Therefore, burning is a valid explanation for how heat is produced.

      Rubbing

    • B.

      Evaporation

    • C.

      Freezing

    Correct Answer
    A. Rubbing
    Explanation
    Rubbing is a way heat is produced because when two objects are rubbed against each other, friction is created. Friction generates heat energy due to the resistance between the two surfaces. The kinetic energy of the rubbing motion is converted into thermal energy, resulting in the production of heat. Therefore, rubbing is a process that can generate heat.

    Correct Answer
    B. Closely Together
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Closely Together" because particles in solids are held tightly or closely together due to strong intermolecular forces. This close arrangement of particles is what gives solids their fixed shape and volume. Unlike particles in liquids or gases, particles in solids have limited freedom of movement and vibrate in fixed positions. This close proximity of particles also allows solids to have a high density and makes them less compressible compared to liquids and gases.

    Particles in liquids

    • A.

      Are not moving

    • B.

      Are very far from each-other

    • C.

      Slide past one another

    Correct Answer
    C. Slide past one another
    Explanation
    Particles in liquids are not stationary or fixed in place, but rather they have the ability to move. However, they are also closely packed together, unlike particles in gases. The correct answer states that particles in liquids slide past one another, which accurately describes their movement. This sliding motion allows liquids to flow and take the shape of their container.

    When something boils in changes from

    • A.

      A solid to gas

    • B.

      A liquid to gas

    • C.

      A solid to liquid

    • D.

      A liquid to solid

    Correct Answer
    B. A liquid to gas
    Explanation
    When something boils, it changes from a liquid to a gas. This process occurs when the substance is heated to its boiling point, causing the particles to gain enough energy to break free from their liquid state and form a gas. This change is accompanied by the release of energy in the form of heat.

    Heat causes particles in a liquid to

    • A.

      Move faster and spread-out

    • B.

      Move slower and freeze

    • C.

      Move faster and freeze

    • D.

      Move slower and spread-out

    Correct Answer
    A. Move faster and spread-out
    Explanation
    When heat is applied to a liquid, it increases the kinetic energy of its particles. This increase in energy causes the particles to move faster and spread out. As the particles gain more energy, they overcome the attractive forces between them and move further apart, resulting in the liquid expanding and spreading out. Therefore, the correct answer is that heat causes particles in a liquid to move faster and spread out.

    Liquids can slowly change into a gas, a process known as

    • A.

      Condensation

    • B.

      Evaporation

    • C.

      Liquidation

    • D.

      Freezing

    Correct Answer
    B. Evaporation
    Explanation
    Evaporation is the correct answer because it refers to the process of a liquid slowly changing into a gas. This occurs when the liquid's molecules gain enough energy to break free from the surface and become vapor. Unlike condensation, which is the opposite process of gas turning into a liquid, evaporation does not require a specific temperature or pressure. Liquidation and freezing are unrelated to the transformation of a liquid into a gas.

    Water in the form of gas is called

    • A.

      Spa

    • B.

      Water Vapor

    • C.

      Ice cube

    • D.

      Hot water

    Correct Answer
    B. Water Vapor
    Explanation
    Water in the form of gas is called water vapor. When water is heated, it undergoes a phase change from liquid to gas, forming water vapor. Water vapor is invisible and is found in the atmosphere, contributing to the formation of clouds and precipitation. It can also be produced through processes such as evaporation and boiling. Water vapor is an important component of the Earth's water cycle and plays a crucial role in weather patterns and climate.

    The amount of energy is a solid, a liquid or a gas when  is cooled increases

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    When a solid, liquid, or gas is cooled, the amount of energy it contains decreases, not increases. Cooling causes the particles in the substance to slow down, resulting in a decrease in kinetic energy. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

  • 49. 

    The amount of energy is a solid, a liquid or a gas when  is cooled decreases

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    When a solid, liquid, or gas is cooled, the amount of energy it possesses decreases. This is because cooling involves the removal of heat energy from the substance, causing its particles to slow down and have less kinetic energy. As a result, the substance transitions to a lower energy state, which is reflected in a decrease in its overall energy. Therefore, the statement "The amount of energy is a solid, a liquid or a gas when cooled decreases" is true.

    When a gas cools to the right temperature, it will

    • A.

      Evaporate

    • B.

      Condense

    • C.

      Boil

    • D.

      Freeze

    Correct Answer
    B. Condense
    Explanation
    When a gas cools to the right temperature, its particles lose energy and slow down. As a result, the particles come closer together and the intermolecular forces become stronger. This causes the gas to undergo a phase change and transform into a liquid. This process is known as condensation. Therefore, the correct answer is "Condense".
