MATTER MCQs
:
B
Crystal is a solid and when a strong force is applied on it, it breaks into smaller pieces. This property of solids is known as brittleness.
:
B
Water does not change colour as salt crystals are clear. We can see the salt particles in water at first, but when you stir they dissolve and the size becomes so small that it cannot be seen through the naked eyes.
:
A
Water molecules in a liquid state only move around a little bit and not as much as the molecules in gas. In gaseous state the spaces between the molecules is maximum.
:
C
Element is a substance which has same type of atoms. From given options Nitrogen is the only element.
:
C
An element is a substance which cannot be broken down into smaller units by any chemical reaction. Nitrogen is an example of element.
:
C
When liquid water is heated, thedistance between the particles increases. This turns liquid waterinto a gaseous state called vapour.
:
A
The molecules in gas have fastermovement as compared to solids. Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. Itreleases carbon dioxidegas and hence the molecules coming out movefaster.

3- Solid
:
A
Water has the fluidic property and it takes the shape of the container it is kept in, a property shown by liquids.
Each sand grain is a solid particle which is a piece from broken rocks. Each sand grain has a fixed shape and volume. It is a solid.
When we squeeze a sponge, it changes shape but returns to its normal shape when we let go of the force. It has a definite shape.
:
A and C
Among solids, liquids and gases; the molecules in solid are more tightly packed than liquids and gases. Hence, solids have least mobility.
:
C
Dry ice is a solid block of carbon dioxide. When we pour water on dry ice, the temperature goes up and solid ice directly turns into carbon dioxide in the form of gas. The process in which a solid substance directly turns into gas without turning into a liquid is called sublimation.
