1. Which of the following are matter?
Chair, air, love, smell, hate, almonds, thought, cold, lemon water, the smell of
perfume.
Solution:
The following substances are matter:
Chair
Air
Almonds
Lemon water
The smell of perfume (Smell is considered as a matter due to the presence of some
volatile substances in air that occupy space & have mass.)
2. Give reasons for the following observation:
The smell of hot sizzling food reaches you several meters away, but to get the
smell from cold food, you have to go close.
Solution:
Particles in the air, if fueled with higher temperatures, acquire high kinetic energy, which
aids them to move fast over a stretch. Hence, the smell of hot sizzling food reaches a
person even at a distance of several meters.
3. A diver is able to cut through water in a swimming pool. Which property of
matter does this observation show?
Solution:
The diver is able to easily cut through the water in the swimming pool because of the
