    Q6. What was the basic classification of elements in ancient times? Name them.
    Answer: In ancient times, elements were classified in the form of five basic elements- the panch tattva,
    which are air, earth, fire, sky and water.

    According to ancient people, living and non-living things were made of these five primary elements.

    Q7. Fill in the blanks and give a suitable reason for your answer.
    (i) As the temperature rises, particles move ______.
    (ii) With an increase in temperature, the kinetic energy of the particles also _______.
    Answer: (i) As the temperature rises, particles move faster.
    Explanation: Particles of matter continuously move, and as we increase the temperature, particles
    move faster: Their speed increases greatly.
    (ii) With an increase in temperature, the kinetic energy of the particles also increases.
    Explanation: The particle of matter is continuously moving; that is, it possesses kinetic energy. As the
    temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the particles also increases.

    Q8. We can break a piece of chalk into small particles on hammering, but it is impossible to break a
    piece of iron in the same fashion. Why?
    Answer: A piece of chalk can be broken into small particles on hammering, but it is not possible to
    break a piece of iron in the same fashion because the force of attraction between particles of the chalk
    is too weak than the force of attraction between the particles of iron. Hence we can easily break chalk
    by hammering but not pieces of iron.

    Q9. Find the density of a handful of sand with a mass of 208 g displacing a volume of 80 mL of water.
    Answer: Given,
    Mass of sand (m) = 208 g
    Volume of water (V) = 80 mL.
    We will use the following formula to calculate the density of a handful of sand.
    Density = Mass / Volume
    Density = 208 g / 80 mL
    Density = 2.6 g / mL
    We know that, 1 mL = 1 cm 3.
    Thus, the density of sand is 2.6 g / cm3

    Q10. Why is liquid classified as a fluid?


    Answer: Liquids have no fixed shape but have a fixed volume. They take up the shape of the container
    in which they are kept. Liquids flow and change shape, so they are not rigid and can be classified as
    fluid.
    Examples of Fluid:
    (i) River flowing
    (ii) Blood circulates in our body.

    Q11. Why does solid ice float on water?


    Answer: Solid ice floats on water because it is less dense than water. It means solid ice is lighter than
    water. The heavier water removes the lighter ice. Hence ice floats to the top.

    Q12. By which physical process does the fragrance of burning an incense stick spread all around?
    Answer: The fragrance of burning incense sticks spreads through a physical process called diffusion.
    The spreading and intermixing of a substance with another substance due to the continuous motion of
    the particles is known as diffusion.

    Q13. Name the physical process responsible for drying wet clothes. Why does the spreading of clothes
    increase the rate of drying?
    Answer: The physical process responsible for drying wet clothes is evaporation.
    Spreading of clothes increases the rate of drying because of the following reasons.
    (i) If the surface area increases, the evaporation rate also increases.
    (ii) While putting clothes for drying up, we spread them out (as surface area increases)
    (iii) As a result, the rate of evaporation increases, and wet clothes dry up fast.

    Q14. Which property of gases helps us in detecting the leakage of LPG gas?
    Answer: The diffusion of gases helps us detect LPG gas leakage.
    (i) The gases have ample space between their particles.
    (ii) The speed of the particles is also much faster.
    (iii) This shows that the gases diffuse very fast into other gases.

    Q15. Convert the following temperature to the Kelvin scale.


    (i) 65 ° C
    (ii) 300 ° C
    Answer: (i) To convert the temperature on the Celsius scale to the temperature on the Kelvin scale, we
    will add 273.
    Temperature (K) = Temperature (° C) + 273
    Temperature (K) = 65 ° C + 273
    Temperature (K) = 338 K.
    (ii) To convert the temperature on the Celsius scale to the temperature on the Kelvin scale, we will add
    273.
    Temperature (K) = Temperature (° C) + 273
    Temperature (K) = 300 ° C + 273
    Temperature (K) = 573 K.

    Q16. Is dry ice same as the normal ice? If no, then differentiate between dry and ordinary ice.
    Answer: No, dry ice is not same as the ordinary ice.
    (i) Solid carbon dioxide is known as dry ice.
    (ii) It is stored under high pressure.
    (iii) Solid CO2 gets converted directly to a gaseous state on decreasing pressure without changing into
    the liquid state.
    (iv) Solid CO2 is known as dry ice, while frozen H2O is ordinary ice.

    Q17. Why are the particles in liquid held together less firmly as compared to solids?
    Answer: In liquids,
    (i) The force of attraction between the constituent particles is lesser than the particles in the solid-state.
    (ii) The diffusion rate of liquids is higher than that of solids. Hence, the particles of liquid move freely.
    (iii) They have greater space between each other than the particles in the solid-state.

    Q18. How will you differentiate between a gas and a vapour?


    Answer: We can differentiate between gas and vapour in the following ways.
    S. No. Gas Vapour

    1. A gas is formed at or above the A vapour is formed below the


    boiling point of the liquid. boiling point of the liquid.

    2. A gas is formed at or above 100 o C. A vapour is formed below 100 o C.

    3. The process of boiling forms a gas. The process of evaporation forms


    a vapour.

    Q19. What are the necessary conditions of a substance to be classified as a matter?


    Answer: The provisions of a substance to be called matter are mentioned below.
    1. It should occupy some space.
    2. It should have a definite mass.
    3. It should exist in any state of matter, i.e. solid, liquid or gas.
    4. The five senses of our body should feel it.

    Q20. A student spilt a bottle of ammonia in one corner of the laboratory. Soon the laboratory was filled
    with a pungent irritating smell. The students immediately opened the windows and doors and switched
    on the exhaust fans. After some time, students got relief. What did happen? Explain.
    Answer: Strong ammonia gas is diffused in the room, which has a very pungent, irritating smell.
    (i) The diffusion of gases occurs when the student spills a bottle of ammonia.
    (ii) The speed of the gas particles is very high, and they have huge space between them.
    (iii) As a result, the gases diffuse quickly with other gases.
    (iv) Hence, the smell of ammonia filled the whole laboratory.
