Properties of Matter Games

Which state of matter has no definite shape or volume?

• Solids have no definite shape or volume.
• Liquids have no definite shape or volume.
• Gases have no definite shape or volume.
• Displacements have no definite shape or volume. 

The illustrations shows the spacing of particles in different types of matter. Which illustration is an example of the spacing of particles in solids?

• illustration A
• illustration B
• illustration C
• illustration D

Anything that occupies space and has mass is known as

• liquid
• air
• matter
• solid

Study the diagram  and carefully read the description below the diagram. Gases have no definite shape or volume. Instead, they take the shape of their container. The particles of a gas spread out within the available space. Which diagram illustrates gas particles? 

• Diagram A illustrates gas particles.
• Diagram B illustrates gas particles
• Diagram C illustrates gas particles.
• None of these illustrates gas particles.

The drawing shows how a solid piece of matter can be magnified. Which of the following tools would be the best to use to generate this degree of magnification?

• A magnifying glass
• A microscope
• A telescope
• A prism

5. In the diagram, State of Matter C is a gas. This means that which of the following statements is true about this state of matter? 

• Its particles can move freely throughout the container
• It has a definite volume, but no definite shape
• It has a definite shape and volume
• The particles are rigid and densely placed 

Melting is the change in state of a

• solid to a gas.
•  liquid to a gas.
• solid to a liquid.
•  liquid to a solid.

Has no definite shape or volume, but take the shape and volume of their containers, filling the space available. The particles easily move far apart from each other and spread out through the available space.

• solid
• liquid
• gas
• mass

Has a definite shape and volume. Particles are very close to one another (dense).They vibrate, but do not move about. 

• solid
• liquid
• gas
• mass

Has a definite volume, but their shape changes according to the shape of their containers. The particles are close to one another, but they are able to move apart from each other and flow from place to place.

• solid
• liquid
• gas
• mass
