    Correct Answer
    C. Solid, liqui, and gas
    Explanation
    The correct answer is solid, liquid, and gas. These are the three states of matter. Solids have a fixed shape and volume, liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume. Protons, neutrons, and electrons are subatomic particles, not states of matter. Metals, non-metals, and metalloids are classifications of elements. Freezing, melting, and evaporation are physical processes that can occur in different states of matter.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    8. explain what happens to the molecules in matter when it is Heated

    • A.

      Molecules move close together

    • B.

      Molecules split

    • C.

      Molecules move farther apart

    • D.

      Molecules evaporate

    Correct Answer
    C. Molecules move farther apart
    Explanation
    When matter is heated, the molecules gain energy and start moving faster. This increased kinetic energy causes the molecules to move farther apart from each other. As the temperature rises, the intermolecular forces weaken, allowing the molecules to spread out more, leading to an expansion of the substance. This phenomenon is observed in various states of matter, such as solids turning into liquids or liquids turning into gases when heated.

      Macroscopic properties

    • C.

      Physical properties

    • D.

      Biological properties

    Correct Answer
    A. Sub-microscopic properties
    Explanation
    Sub-microscopic properties refer to properties that are too small to be observed with the five senses. These properties are at a scale that is smaller than what our senses can detect, such as the behavior of particles at the atomic or molecular level. Macroscopic properties, on the other hand, can be observed with the five senses as they are at a larger scale. Physical properties are characteristics that can be observed or measured without changing the composition of a substance, while biological properties are specific to living organisms.

  • 19. 

    19. a change from gas to liquid is called

    • A.

      Sublimation

    • B.

      Evaporation

    • C.

      Freezing

    • D.

      Condensation

    Correct Answer
    D. Condensation
    Explanation
    Condensation is the process in which a substance changes from its gaseous state to its liquid state. This occurs when the temperature of the gas decreases, causing the particles to lose energy and come closer together, forming a liquid. Sublimation refers to the change from solid to gas without passing through the liquid state, evaporation is the process of a liquid turning into a gas, and freezing is the transformation from liquid to solid. Therefore, condensation is the correct answer for a change from gas to liquid.

    22. a mixture of sand and water can be separated by

    • A.

      Filtration

    • B.

      Evaporation

    • C.

      Distilation

    • D.

      Crystalization

    Correct Answer
    A. Filtration
    Explanation
    A mixture of sand and water can be separated by filtration. Filtration is a process that involves passing the mixture through a filter, which allows the liquid (water) to pass through while retaining the solid particles (sand). This separation method is based on the difference in particle size between the sand and water. The sand particles are too large to pass through the filter, so they are trapped, while the water flows through.

    23. a mixture of peroxide and water can be separated by

    • A.

      Evaporation

    • B.

      Sublimation

    • C.

      Decantation

    • D.

      Distilation

    Correct Answer
    D. Distilation
    Explanation
    Distillation is the process of separating a mixture by heating it to create vapor and then cooling the vapor to collect the separated components. In the case of a mixture of peroxide and water, distillation can be used because peroxide has a lower boiling point than water. By heating the mixture, the peroxide will vaporize first, and then it can be condensed and collected separately from the water. This method allows for the separation of the two components based on their different boiling points.

    44. the electron configuration of phosphorus is

    • A.

      2,8,1

    • B.

      2,8,4

    • C.

      2,8,7

    • D.

      2,8,5

    Correct Answer
    D. 2,8,5
    Explanation
    The electron configuration of an element represents the arrangement of electrons in its atomic orbitals. Phosphorus has an atomic number of 15, which means it has 15 electrons. The electron configuration of phosphorus is determined by filling up the atomic orbitals in order of increasing energy. The first two electrons go into the 1s orbital, the next two go into the 2s orbital, and the next six go into the 2p orbital. This gives us a total of ten electrons so far. The remaining five electrons go into the 3p orbital, resulting in the electron configuration of 2,8,5.

      Bottom right hand side

    Correct Answer
    B. Bottom left hand side
    Explanation
    The most active metals are located on the bottom left hand side of the periodic table. This is because these metals have a low ionization energy and are highly reactive. As you move from left to right across a period, the ionization energy generally increases, making the metals less reactive. However, as you move down a group, the ionization energy generally decreases, resulting in more reactive metals at the bottom left.
