MCQ Science Curiosity Chapter 7 Class 8 CBSE Board Advertisement Particulate Nature of Matter 1. Why can stones and sand be piled up, but not water?Water particles are too large to stack.Water has a fixed volume.Water has no fixed shape due to weak interparticle forces.Water particles are tightly packed.Question 1 of 202. Why does water lose the shape of folded hands when released?Water particles are stationary.Water has strong interparticle attractions.Water has no interparticle spaces.Water particles move freely and take the shape of the container.Question 2 of 203. How does air add weight to an inflated balloon?Air particles are weightless.Air has no particles.Air particles are tightly packed.Air particles have mass and occupy space.Question 3 of 204. Is the air we breathe today the same as thousands of years ago?Air particles are newly created daily.No, air particles are completely replaced.Air has no particles.Yes, air particles are recycled and conserved.Question 4 of 205. What happens to chalk when it is ground into a fine powder?It becomes a new substance.It undergoes a physical change.It undergoes a chemical change.It loses its constituent particles.Question 5 of 206. What are the smallest units of chalk obtained after continuous grinding?Large rock piecesGrains of sandConstituent particlesLiquid particlesQuestion 6 of 207. What happens to sugar particles when dissolved in water?They form a new substance.They disappear completely.They break into smaller constituent particles.They remain visible in the solution.Question 7 of 208. Why can’t sugar particles be seen in a sugar-water solution?They evaporate into the air.They are too large to be visible.They are chemically altered.They break into tiny constituent particles.Question 8 of 209. What are interparticle spaces?Spaces filled with airGaps between constituent particles of matterSpaces between large rocksAreas where particles are absentQuestion 9 of 2010. What holds constituent particles together in matter?Gravitational forcesRepulsive forcesInterparticle attractionsMagnetic forcesQuestion 10 of 2011. What determines the physical state of a substance?The color of the substanceThe size of the particlesThe strength of interparticle attractionsThe weight of the particlesQuestion 11 of 2012. Who first proposed the idea of Parmanu (atom)?John DaltonAcharya KanadAlbert EinsteinIsaac NewtonQuestion 12 of 2013. Why do solids have a definite shape and volume?Particles move freely.Particles have strong interparticle attractions.Particles are loosely packed.Particles have no interparticle spaces.Question 13 of 2014. What happens to solid particles when heated?They lose their mass.They become stationary.They vibrate more vigorously.They stop vibrating.Question 14 of 2015. What is the melting point of a solid?The temperature at which it evaporatesThe temperature at which it freezesThe temperature at which it turns into a liquidThe temperature at which it becomes a gasQuestion 15 of 2016. Why do some solids have low melting points?They have no interparticle spaces.They are gases at room temperature.They have strong interparticle forces.They have weak interparticle forces.Question 16 of 2017.
