**Multiple Choice (3 points each)** 1. Matter exists in how many basic states? a) 1 b) 2 **c) 3** d) 4 2. Which of the following has a definite shape and volume? a) Gas b) Liquid **c) Solid** d) All of the above 3. Particles in a liquid are arranged in a: **a) Fixed pattern** b) Random pattern c) Both d) None 4. Honey is an example of a liquid with: a) High surface tension b) Low surface tension **c) High viscosity** d) Low viscosity 5. Which of these gases is used in balloons? a) Oxygen b) Carbon dioxide **c) Helium** d) Nitrogen **True/False (2 points each)** 6. Solids have a fixed shape and volume. (True) 7. Liquids can flow and take the shape of their container. (True) 8. Gases have a definite shape and volume. (False) 9. Particles in a solid are tightly packed together. (True) 10. Viscosity describes the resistance of a gas to flow. (False) **Matching (2 points each)** **Match the state of matter with its description (Column A to Column B)** -------------- -------------- **Column A** **Column B** -------------- -------------- Export to Sheets 11. Solid \| a) No fixed shape or volume, can be compressed 12. Liquid \| b) Fixed shape, definite volume, particles vibrate 13. Gas \| c) Flows easily, takes the shape of its container **Fill in the Blank (2 points each)** 14. The three states of matter are: \_\_\_\_\_\_, \_\_\_\_\_\_, and \_\_\_\_\_\_. 15. Amorphous solids have a(n) \_\_\_\_\_\_ particle arrangement. 16. Crystalline solids have a(n) \_\_\_\_\_\_ particle arrangement. 17. Surface tension allows water to form \_\_\_\_\_\_ shaped droplets. 18. The resistance of a liquid to flow is called \_\_\_\_\_\_. **Short Answer (4 points each)** 19. Describe the main differences between crystalline and amorphous solids. 20. Explain how surface tension works in liquids. 21. Give two examples of how viscosity affects our daily lives. 22. Draw and label a diagram showing the arrangement of particles in each state of matter (solid, liquid, gas). **Challenge Questions (5 points each)** 23. How does temperature affect the viscosity of a liquid? 24. What are some applications of surface tension in nature? 25. Can you think of any exceptions to the rules about the shape and volume of different states of matter? **Bonus Question (5 points)** 26. Imagine you discovered a new material that doesn\'t fit neatly into any of the three states of matter. Describe its properties and explain why it might be a new state altogether.
