Class 9 Science Chapter 1 MCQ

The bromine vapor is heavier than air. And rest of all statement are correct. Hence, your answer will be option [D].

During melting, temperature of the ice does not change at all because the heat is used in overcoming the particle-particle attraction forces, which in turn keeps the temperature constant.

Explanation: The particles of matter attract each other. There are the characteristics of particles of matter.

The rates of evaporation, diffusion and expansion of gases increases due to increase in temperature because when temperature increases the kinetic energy of molecules increases, which breaks or weakens the interaction between the atoms and sets the molecules free.

The correct order of boiling points of diethyl ether, acetone and n-butyl alcohol in kelvin scale is 308 K, 329 K and 391 K, which can be explained as: Boiling point of diethyl ether = 35 degree Celsius + 273 = 308 K Boiling point of acetone = 56 degree Celsius + 273 = 329 K Boiling point of n-butyl alcohol = 118 degree Celsius + 273 = 391 K

At 0°C, water releases some heat to lower the speed of molecules, and when it is cool enough the molecules of water are fixed at one position and they start vibrating. Ultimately, the water molecules convert into ice (solid).

Conversion of solid into vapours on heating or vapours into solid on cooling without undergoing in liquid state is called sublimation. The conversion of liquid into gas or vapour is called vaporization. The conversion of liquid into solid is called freezing. The conversion of solid into liquid is called melting.

Here, all the statements are correct. Hence, your answer will be option [D].

Therefore, the correct sequence of temperature will be 298 K, 311 K, and 339 K. On converting 25 degree Celsius, 38 degree Celsius, and 66 degree Celsius, to Kelvin scale, we get the following temperatures: 25 + 273 = 298 K, 38 + 273 = 311 K, 66+ 273 = 339 K. Therefore, the correct sequence of temperature will be 298 K, 311 K and 339 K.

The correct order of increasing “force of attraction” between their particles is : Oxygen < Water < Sugar It is because the force of attraction increases in the order i.e. Gas < Liquid < Solid.

When surface area increases and temperature rises, evaporation of water increases because the area which is exposed to the outer atmosphere is more and increasing the temperature leads to increase in the kinetic energy, due to which rate of evaporation increases.

During summer, water kept in an earthen pot becomes cool because of the phenomenon of evaporation. Earthen pot has a large number of tiny pores in its walls and some of the water molecules continuously keep seeping through these pores to outside the pot. This water evaporates continuously and take the latent heat required for vaporization from the remaining water. In this way, the remaining water loses heat and gets cooled. Note: i) Diffusion is the net spreading out movement of a substance from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration and mixing of a substance with another substance due to motion of its particles. ii) Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts such as leaves. iii) Osmosis is the process in which solvent molecules move from their higher concentration to their lower concentration through semi permeable membrane. iv) Evaporation is the process in which a liquid changes into vapour or gas even below its boiling point.

Here, all the statements are correct. Hence, your answer will be option [D].

The statement that the particles of some forms of matter move constantly is incorrect because the particles of matter of all three states– solid, liquid and gas –are moving constantly. Although the particles of solids are fixed at their positions, they vibrate constantly.

The statement that the particles of bromine are moving but those of air are not moving is incorrect because the particles of matter are constantly in motion. It appears as if the air molecules are not moving because air is colourless.

Gases and liquids behave like fluids. Both gases and liquids tend to flow due to less force of attraction between their particle. Also, they required vessel to keep them. Solids do not flow. Note: Fluid means a material which can flow easily and requires a vessel to keep it.

With the help of experiments it can be shown that at low temperature and high pressures, gases will liquefy. Because these factors affect the interaction force of molecules i.e. the molecules are able to establish a force of attraction between them on lowering the temperature and increasing pressure.

Here, all the statements are correct. Hence, your answer will be option [D].

Low temperature and high pressure required to liquefy gases to liquids. There is a lot of space between the particles of a gas. On applying high pressure, the particles of gas move get so close that they start attracting each other sufficiently forming a liquid. When gas is compressed too much, heat is produced, so it is necessary to cool it. Cooling lowers the temperature of compressed gas and helps in liquifying it. Hence, a gas can be liquefied by applying high pressure and lowering the temperature (cooling).

The process occurring here is diffusion and it is unaffected by the mass. Therefore, bromine being heavier, mixes with the colorless air.

Here, all these statements are correct. Hence, your answer will be option [D].

Here, all these statements are correct. Hence, your answer will be option [D].

The smell of perfume spreads due to the diffusion of perfume into air.

Here, all these statements are correct. Hence, your answer will be option [D].

It has been found that the burns caused by stems are much more severe than those caused by boiling water though both of them at the same temperature of 100 degree Celsius. This is due to the fact that steam contains more heat, in the form of latent heat, than boiling water. So, when stem falls on our skin and condensed to produce water it gives out 22.5 x 10 to the power 5 J/kg more heat than boiling water, at the same temperature. Since, steam gives out more heat than boiling water it causes more severe burns.
