VII. Answer in detail:

1. Discuss briefly about three states of matter.

Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. Matter can exist in three states: Solid, liquid and gas.

1. a) Solid: In solids, molecules are very closely packed, solids are incompressible. They have a definite shape, size and volume.

Eg: Table, Book, Metals.

1. b) Liquid: In liquids, molecules are loosely packed. Hence, liquids are ineligibly compressible. They have a definite volume but no definite shape and size.

Eg: Water, Milk, Petrol

1. c) Gas: In gases, molecules are very loosely poked. Hence gases are highly compressible.

Eg: Air, LPG, Oxygen.

2. Draw a flow chart to indicate the process of making fabrics from cotton ball.

Answer:

 

VIII. Give Reason:

1. Why umbrellas are made up of synthetic clothes?

Answer:

• Umbrellas are made up of synthetic clothes because synthetic fibres are more hydrophobic than natural fibres. Nylon and polyester, the two fabrics most commonly used in umbrellas. Synthetic are not naturally absorb water like natural fibres. (Cotton, wool).

2. What determines whether an object floats or sinks in a fluid?

Answer:

• Whether an object floats or sinks is determined by its density. When an object is immersed into a liquid, the liquid exerts an upward force on the object. It is known as upthrust. If the weight is greater than the upthrust, it sinks. But it is less on the empty water bottle and so it floats.
