True or false? Three different types of states of matter are solids, liquids, and gases.
Answer
True
False
Question 3
Question
How do the particles move past each other in a solid?
Answer
They vibrate next to each other, forming neat rows.
They move past each other, but stay at a close distance and do not move fast.
Question 4
Question
Solids can't be compressed/squashed, and have a fixed volume.
Answer
True
False
Question 5
Question
Is heat energy the main form of energy, and is it stronger than cold energy?
Answer
Yes
No
Question 6
Question
Why does ice melt?
Answer
Ice is made up out of cold energy. As heat energy is stronger than cold energy, if the heat energy is applied to the ice, the particles start to move around each other again, and therefore start to flow, creating water.
Because the particles get sad
Question 7
Question
How do the particles move around each other when in water?
Answer
They are close and move at slowly around eachother
They are far away and move fast around each other
They are so close they vibrate against each and do not move
Question 8
Question
Can liquids be squashed? Do they have a fixed volume?
Answer
Yes, they can be squashed, as they have have a fixed volume.
Yes, they can be squashed, as they have a fixed volume.
No, they can't be squashed, as they have a fixed volume.
No, they can't be squashed, as they do not have a fixed volume.
Question 9
Question
What happens to water when it reaches boiling point?
Answer
First the water bubbles, then steams, becomes extremely hot and turns into a gas (therefore evaporating).
It stays the same, but gets really hot.
Question 10
Question
Can solids and liquids be measured?
Answer
Yes
No
Question 11
Question
What particles make up a molecule?
Answer
Hydrogen, hydrogen and oxygen
Hydrogen and oxygen
Hydrogen, hydrogen and hydrogen
It just is water
Question 12
Question
Do liquids have a fixed shape?
Answer
Yes - it has to as it can't be squashed.
No - They take on the shape of the container they are in.
Question 13
Question
How do the particles move around each other in their gas form?
Answer
They move quite fast around each other, and are spaced quite far apart.
They move slowly around each other, but at a far distance.
Question 14
Question
Can gases be squashed, and do they have a fixed volume?
Answer
Yes, as they do not have a fixed volume, and therefore can be compressed.
Yes, as they have a fixed volume.
No, as they have a fixed volume.
No, as they do not have a fixed volume.
Question 15
Question
Gases can be measured.
Answer
Yes, but with special instruments.
No, as they do not have a fixed volume, therefore it is impossible to measure it.
