Question 61.


All objects can be differentiated based on their shapes.


  1.     True
  2.     False
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B

Not all objects can be differentiated based on shape. Neither do all objects with the same shape have similar functions. Objects can also be segregated on the basis of colour, function, size, density, etc.

Question 63.


Which of the following is made of more than one material?


  1.     Computers
  2.     Copper shavings
  3.     Plastic Bottles
  4.     Iron rods
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Computers
:
A

A Computer is made of different materials like plastic, glass and metal etc. Whereas the other options like iron rods and tyres  and bottle are each made of the same substances individually. 


Question 64.


Materials are classified as liquids if they have a specific shape.


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     opaque
  4.     conductor
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B

-Liquids do not have definite shapes; they take the shape of the container they are stored in. 
-They have definite volume.
-The particles of liquids are loosely packed compared to particles in solids
-They can be compressed to a small extent. 


Question 65.


Which of the following properties is not helpful in making plastic bottles to hold water?


  1.     It should be elastic in nature.
  2.     It should not react with water.
  3.     It should be light and easy to carry.
  4.     Water should not pass through plastic.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> It should be elastic in nature.
:
A
The following properties make plastic a good choice for making bottles:
(i) Water should not pass through plastic.
(ii) It should not react with water.
(iii) It should be lighter and easy to carry.
While being elastic in nature does not serve the purpose for holding water, as it would make the bottle difficult to handle.
Question 66.


A block of wood was placed in the path of light. It completely blocked the light to form a shadow. This is because wood block is ____.


  1.     transparent 
  2.     translucent
  3.     opaque
  4.     conductor
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> opaque
:
C

The materials through which light cannot pass are called opaque. When light falls on an opaque object, some part of the light gets absorbed and the other part gets reflected back.


Question 67.


Pick the right order based on their hardness - wood, iron, paper.


  1.     iron > paper > wood
  2.     iron > wood > paper
  3.     paper > wood > iron
  4.     wood > paper > iron
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> iron > wood > paper
:
B

Materials which are difficult to compress are called hard materials.
Iron is the hardest material among all followed by wood and then paper.


Question 68.


What happens when water is added to kerosene?


  1.     Water floats above kerosene.
  2.     Kerosene floats above water.
  3.     They both mix well.
  4.     Kerosene reacts with water.
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Kerosene floats above water.
:
B

Kerosene forms a layer above water when both the liquids are mixed and left to settle for some time. This is because the density of kerosene is less than that of water and they do not mix. 


Question 69.


The objects which do not allow the light to pass through them are called:


  1.     Opaque
  2.     Transparent
  3.     Transitional
  4.     Translucent
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> Opaque
:
A

Opaque objects do not allow the light to pass through them. 
Example:- Wood, Gold, etc.
Tranparent objects allow the light to pass through them while translucent objects partially allow the light to pass through them.


Question 70.


What will happen when we mix vegetable oil, corn syrup and water in a glass?


  1.     Corn syrup will be the uppermost layer, vegetable oil will be the middle layer and the water will be the bottom layer.
  2.     Water will be the uppermost layer, vegetable oil will be the middle layer and the corn syrup will be the bottom layer.
  3.     Vegetable oil will be the uppermost layer, water will be the middle layer and the corn syrup will be the bottom layer.
  4.     Corn syrup and the vegetable oil mix together and the water will be the bottom layer. 
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Vegetable oil will be the uppermost layer, water will be the middle layer and the corn syrup will be the bottom layer.
:
C

The density of corn syrup, vegetable oil and water is in the order:
Corn syrup > Water > Vegetable Oil.
The less dense material will float on top of the more dense material. 
Thus, vegetable oil will be the uppermost layer followed by water in the middle and corn syrup being at the bottom layer.
