Metals are lustrous as they have a smooth surface and reflect light while non-metal like wood have a rough surface and cannot reflect light. Hence, they are not lustrous. 19 .
(a) Feather, plastic ball Explanation: Feather, plastic ball 20 .
(b) Absent Explanation: In solid state, intermolecular space is negligible or absent due to strong force of attraction between the particles. Thus solid substances cannot be compressed and are usually very hard due to the absence of space between the molecules. Further solid state objects have definite shape and volume.
21 .
(c) Miscible liquid Explanation: Two or more liquids that dissolve in one another are called as miscible liquids. The mixture is called as a homogeneous mixture. Some examples are ethanol and water, benzene and carbon tetrachloride. 22 .
(d) Petrol is a volatile substance Explanation: When petrol is kept open in a container, some amount of petrol changes into gaseous state because petrol is a volatile substance. Volatality means substance that readily vapourises quickly. This process can happen while heating or not heating.
23 .
(a) Gold Explanation: Gold is the most ductile metal as it can be stretched into thin wires. Ductility is a solid materials ability to deform under tensile stress. It is often characterized by materials ability to be stretched into wires. 24 .
(b) Liquid Explanation: A solid has a definite shape and it takes up a fixed volume. Liquid has a fixed volume, but no definite shape. A liquid will change its shape to fit its container. A gas has no definite shape and no fixed volume. Like a liquid, a gas will change its shape to fit its container, but it will also expand to fill the entire volume of the container.
25 .
(a) Painting Explanation: Rusting of iron can be prevented by painting, galvanising and greasing. In galvanising a layer of zinc coating is done on the iron which gets oxidised and prevents iron from rusting. Alloying the metal to make its chemical properties resistance to rust. 26 .
