We have four substances P,Q,R,S. Substance P is dark coloured violet solid having diatomic molecules. Solution of P in alcohol is an Antiseptic 'T' Substance 'Q'is a white solid usually recovered from sea on a large scale. Substance 'R' is also a white solid insoluble in water and used in the form of small balls for safe storage of woolen clothes. Substance 'S' is a white solid too used in dry cell. P,Q,R,S,T, may be -(choose correct option)

  1. P-lodine, Q-Napthalene,R-$\displaystyle R-NH _{4}CI$ S-Nacl, T-lodine tincture

  2. P-NaCl,Q-Napthalene, $\displaystyle R-NH _{4}CI$

    S-lodine, T-lodine tincture

  3. P-lodine tincture, Q-$\displaystyle R-NH _{4}CI$ R- lodine, S-Napthalene, T-NaCl

  4. P-lodine, Q-Nacl, R- Napthalene,

    S-$\displaystyle R-NH _{4}CI$, T-lodine tincture


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

P = lodine $\displaystyle 1 _{2}$, dark coloured  violet solid Q = NaCl, recovered  from sea on large scale. R = Nephathalene, used in the from of small balls for safe storage of woolen clothes S = $\displaystyle NH _{4}Cl$, used in dry cells
T = TIncture iodine, a solution of iodine in alcohol as antiseptic 

Which of the following are the correct examples of matter?

  1. Glass bottle, water and noise.

  2. Air, wood and vacuum

  3. Silver foil, hot air and chalk.

  4. Sand, oxygen and light flash


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Noise, vacuum and light flash are not the examples of matter.

Which of the following is a state of matter?

  1. Quark-gluon plasma

  2. Quantum spin liquid

  3. Superfluid

  4. All of above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

There are more phases of matter which aren't as familiar nor do we see them every day. Some exist only in theory, others can be reproduced in laboratories, some are so new that scientists are still figuring out the details and others might exist, but have not yet been found in nature. They include: quark-gluon plasmas, Bose-Einstein condensates, fermionic condensates, strange matter, liquid crystals, quantum spin liquid (QSL), superfluids, supersolids and the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases of magnetic materials.

How many of the following is the matter?


Chair, Air, Heat, Smell, Sound, Almonds, Thought and Cold drink.

  1. $4$

  2. $5$

  3. $6$

  4. $7$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Chair, Air, Cold drink, Almonds are matters as they have mass and occupy space. 


Remaining all does not have mass and does not occupy space. 

Thus they are not a matter.

Hence the correct option is A.

 Which of the following can occupy space and has mass?

  1. Density

  2. Weight

  3. Matter

  4. A solid

  5. Volume


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Matter is defined as anything that occupies space and has mass. Matter occurs in one of three states: Solid, liquid or gas. 


Hence the correct option is C.

Every matter can be seen.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Any material can be seen if the molecules are dense or large but if the molecules are scattered like in gaseous state one cannot see it so every matter can be seen is a false statement.

Which of the following statements is TRUE of matter?

  1. The states of matter are interconvertible

  2. Force of attraction varies from one kind of matter to another

  3. The states of matter can be changed by changing the temperature of pressure

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Matter is a substance which has mass and takes up space by volume the properties of matter are,

States of matter (solid,liquid,gas)are inter convertable.
Force of attraction varies from one kind of matter to another.
States of matter can be varied by varying temperature and pressure.

Choose one of the following definitions that give the correct meaning of matter :

  1. anything that occupies space and has mass is known as matter.

  2. anything that has definite shape and volume is known as matter.

  3. anything that has mass but not definite shape is known as matter.

  4. anything that is intangible is known as matter.


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

There are many possible definitions of Matter. Matter is termed as any substance that has mass and occupy space.

Examples of matter- protons, atoms, molecules, compounds, pen, cap, ball, tree, cat, dog ,etc.
Examples that are not matter- light (photons), UV rays, heat, thought, infra-red waves, microwaves, emotions, etc.

What is the smallest constituent of matter that retains its chemical identity?

  1. Atom

  2. Molecule

  3. Ion

  4. Radical


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Atom is the smallest unit of matter that still retains its chemical identity.Atoms can be broken down into electrons,neutrons and protons which can be further broken down into quarks.Atoms differ from each other with different chemical properties.

Nine planets revolve around the sun. The outer, distant planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus and Pluto. In comparison to these, the 'inner planets', Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars that are nearer to the centre of the sun contain relatively:

  1. New elements of matter

  2. Lighter elements

  3. Heavier elements of matter

  4. Larger quantities of gas


Correct Option: C
