01. Which of the following statements about
matter is NOT correct?

A. Matter is made of tiny particles.

B. Particles of matter are moving all the
time.
C. Its particles have spaces between them.
D. The particles of matter do not attract
each other.
02. When you spray perfume on your clothes, its
fragrance spreads fast. Which property of gas
explains this phenomenon?
A. Gases are highly compressible.
B. Gases do not have definite volume and
shape.
C. The particles of gases move rapidly in all
directions.
D. The distance between the particles of gas is
large compared to the size of the particle.
03. In an experiment, you filled a syringe with
air, plugged the nozzle tightly and pushed
the plunger to see how far it can go. Why
were you able to puh the plunger?
A. Because gas has indefinite shape.
B. Because the particles of gas are moving.
C. Because gas can fill the space of the
entire container.
D. Because gas particles are far apart and
there is space between them.
04. In the liquid state of matter, the particles
are:
A. Very tightly packed so they cannot move
around.
B. So tightly packed together that they cannot
move even in place.
C. Packed fair tightly with enough room to
move around each other.
D. Not packed tightly at all, with lots of room
to move around at random.
05. The particle model of matter can be used to explain
the properties of solids, liquids and gases. Which of
the following is TRUE about solid particles?
A. They attract one another so strongly and motion is
not possible.
B. There is negligible attraction between them so they
can move freely.
C. The particles are closer to one another, and they
move fast each other.
D. There is strong attraction between particles, but
they can move in place.
06. Why the force of attraction between solid
particles is stronger?
A. Each particle flows easily.
B. Each particle is lock in place by particles
around it.
C. Each particle is close together and slide
fast one another.
D. Each particle is far apart and moves
independently of one another.
07. How does particle of gas are attracted to
each other?
a. Move and stay in different station.
b. Move fast enough to overcome some
attraction between them.
c. Do not move fast enough to overcome
the strong attraction.
d. Move fast enough to overcome all of the
attraction between them.
08. Why the cooking oil takes the shape of the
container, but the ball does not?
A. Because the ball is a liquid that has a definite
volume only.
B. Because the ball is a solid that has a definite
shape and volume.
C. Because the liquid has a definite volume but
does not take of the container.
D. Because the cooking oil is a liquid that has a
definite volume but takes the shape of the
container.
09. How would you explain the microscopic
behavior of the solid particles below?
A. Unnoticeable space between particles.
B. There are lots of free spaces between
them.
C. There is only little free space
between them.
D. Particles can move fast
one another as the same time.
10. How would you explain the distances of
liquid particles?
A. There is only little space between them.
B. There is unnoticeable space between
particles.
C. There are lots of free spaces between
them.
D. Particles are kept on moving at any
direction from one place to another.

A. Turn into liquid

B. Become gas
C. Remain in the same state
D. Become solid
14. Which of the following describes what happens
to the molecules of water vapor when cooled?
A. Slow down and lose kinetic energy causing
them to attract each other and become liquid.
B. Move faster and gain kinetic energy that cause
them to attract one another and become liquid.
C. Slow down and gain kinetic energy that cause
them to move apart and become gas.
D. Slow down and lose kinetic energy that causes
them to move farthest apart and become gas.
15. The evaporation of liquid is an important step in the
water cycle. How do liquid water molecules escape
into the gas phase? The molecules _________.
A. Gain kinetic energy, which enables them to move
faster and escape to gaseous phase.
B. Lose kinetic energy, which enables them to move
slower and escape to gaseous phase.
C. Gain kinetic energy, which enables them to move
slower and escape to gaseous phase.
D. Lose kinetic energy, which enables them to move
faster and escape to gaseous phase.
