9 Science NcertSolutions Chapter 1 Exercises

The document contains 9 questions and answers about phases of matter and phase changes. It addresses converting between temperature scales (Kelvin and Celsius), reasons for naphthalene subliming and smelling perfume from far away, ordering substances by interparticle forces, states of water at different temperatures, justifying why water is a liquid and iron is a solid at room temperature, why ice is more effective at cooling than water at the same temperature, which causes more severe burns between boiling water and steam, and labeling phases of matter and phase changes on a diagram. The document is from a Class 9 chemistry resource and provides explanations to build knowledge about physical and chemical properties relating to phases of matter.

Exercises
Question 1: www.tiwariacademy.com
Convert the following temperatures into the Celsius scale.
(a) 300 K (b) 573 K
Answer 1:
(a) 300 K = 300 – 273 = 27 0C
(b) 573 K = 573 – 273 = 300 0C

Question 2: www.tiwariacademy.com
Convert the following temperatures into the Kelvin scale.
(a) 25OC (b) 373OC
Answer 2:
(a) 25OC = 25 + 273 = 298 K
(b) 373OC = 373 + 273 = 646 K

Question 3: www.tiwariacademy.com
Give reasons for the following observations.
(a) Naphthalene balls disappear with time without leaving any solid.
(b) We can get the smell of perfume sitting several meters away.
Answer 3:
(a) Naphthalene shows the property of sublimation. Evaporation of naphthalene
takes place easily and so it disappears during course of time without leaving a
solid.
(b) Perfumes vaporize very fast and its vapours diffuse into air easily. That is why
we can smell perfume sitting several meters away.

Question 5:
What is the physical state of water at —
(a) 25°C (b) 0°C (c) 100°C?
Answer 5:
(a) Liquid
(b) Solid and Liquid
(c) Liquid and Vapours

Question 6:
Give two reasons to justify:
(a) Water at room temperature is a liquid.
(b) An iron almirah is a solid at room temperature.
Answer 6:
(a) Water at room temperature is a liquid because it has fluidity and has definite
volume but no definite shape.
(b) An iron almirah is a solid at room temperature because it is rigid and has a
definite shape.

Question 7: www.tiwariacademy.com
Why is ice at 273 K more effective in cooling than water at the same temperature?
Answer 7:
Ice at 273 K is less energetic than water. It is because of the difference in the
latent heat of fusion which is present in water at the same temperature in the form
of extra energy.

Question 8:
What produces more severe burns, boiling water or steam?
Answer 8:
Steam produces more severe burns than boiling water. This is because steam has
more energy than boiling water, present in it in the form of latent heat of
vaporization.
