Chemistry ⇒ States of Matter

Kinetic Particle Theory of Matter starts at 7 and continues till grade 12. QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Kinetic Particle Theory of Matter. How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take. When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 8
A balloon filled with air is left in the sun and expands. Using kinetic particle theory, explain why this happens.
A student notices that the smell of cooking spreads from the kitchen to the living room. Which property of gases does this demonstrate?
A student observes that a drop of ink spreads out faster in hot water than in cold water. Explain why this happens.
A student places a crystal of potassium permanganate in water and observes the color spreading throughout the water. What process is being observed?
Describe how the kinetic particle theory explains the process of evaporation.
Describe the arrangement and movement of particles in a solid.
Describe the difference in particle movement between a solid and a gas.
Describe what happens to the particles of a solid when it is heated until it becomes a liquid.
Explain why diffusion occurs faster in gases than in liquids.
Explain why gases can be compressed easily but solids cannot.
Explain why liquids have a definite volume but no definite shape.
Explain why solids cannot flow but liquids can.
