Class 6th Chemistry Lesson 3 Matter: Answer The Following Question in Short
2. Name one common substance which can be easily changed from one state to another by
heating or cooling.
Ans. Water is one common substance which can be easily changed from one state to another by
heating or cooling.
3. A liquid can change into gas, either by evaporation or boiling explain the difference between
two process.
Ans. A liquid can be changed into gas either by evaporation or boiling. The difference between
the two process are.
Boiling : The process in which a liquid substance changes into a gas rapidly on heating is called
boiling.
Evaporation: evaporation is a slow process that it involves the change of liquid into Gas state
from the surface.
13. Give an example of Brownian motion in gases from your daily life.
Ans. Sometimes, when a beam of Sunlight enters the room we can see Tiny dust particles
suspended in air which are moving rapidly this is an example of Brownian Movement in gases.

Answer 2.b)Expansion: property of matter to increase volume and decrease density on heating
is known as expansion.
Contraction: the process of becoming or of making something become smaller or shorter is
known as contraction.
Question 3. Why do solids liquids and gases have different properties? Explain giving example.
Answer 3. The following properties of particles decide whether a given substance will exist as a
solid ,a liquid or a gas :
1. The spaces between the particles: the spaces between the particles are the minimum in
solids, a little more liquids
and the maximum in gases.
2. The force of attraction between particles: the force of attraction between the particles are the
strongest in solids, lesser strong in liquids and negligible in gases.
3. The amount of movement of particles: the movement of particles is the minimum in solid,
more in liquids and the maximum gases
Question 4. Explain how heat bring about chemical change in a matter ? Explain giving examples.
Answer 4. Chemical change is also one of the effect on matter on heating. During chemical
change if substance undergoes a change in its chemical composition. Burning of candle is one
of the example of chemical change. When we light the candle then the wax present in its start
burning to produce heat and light. The burning of wax also produces carbon dioxide water
vapour and soot which all go into air. We cannot combine all the products of burning of wax to
get back the original candle. Hands burning of candle wax is an example of chemical change.
Question 5. Explain giving example that particles of matter has interparticle space between
them.
Answer 5.Aim: to show the presence of space between the particles of matter.
Material required: a beaker ,pebbles and 75 grams of sugar.
Procedure: 1. Take a beaker and add pebbles in it.
2. 75 grams of sugar into the beginning mix.
3. Observe the level of the content in the beaker.
Observations:1. The level of contents in the beaker remains same.
2. The sugar particles get fit into the spaces between the pebbles.
Inference: the smaller particles of matter occupy spaces between the bigger particles.Here
smaller particles are sugar particles and bigger particles are pebbles.( draw figure 3.5 given on
page number 52 with this answer)
1. The process in which particles of matter gain energy and rapidly on heating. Expansion
2. The process of conversion of gas into liquid on cooling. Condensation
3. The process of conversion of liquid into gas on heating at any temperature. Boiling
4. The temperature at which a liquid changes into a gas at atmospheric pressure. 100 degree
Celsius
5. The process of conversion of solid into liquid on heating. Melting
6. State of matter which have neither a fixed shape not a fixed volume. Gas
7. A solid substance that undergoes sublimation. Camphor
