Give reasons:
A gas fills completely the vessel in which it is kept.

उत्तर
- The kinetic energy in a gas is maximum due to the low force of attraction between the particles in which it is kept.
- The gas particles are constantly travelling in all directions at different speeds.
- As a result, they have no definite volume and, hence, completely fill the vessel in which they are kept.

Red-brown bromine vapour diffuse into air in a gas jar but the colourless air molecules do not diffuse into bromine vapour.
A bottle of perfume was opened in a room. The smell of its vapours spread in the entire room. Name the property of gases which is responsible for this behaviour of perfume vapours.

A girl is cooking some food in the kitchen. The smell of food being cooked soon reaches her brother's room. Explain how the smell could have reached her brother's room.
Give reason for the following observation :
The smell of hot sizzling food reaches us even from a considerable distance but to get the smell from cold food, we have to go close to it.
When a gas jar containing colourless air is kept upside down over a gas jar full of brown-coloured bromine vapour, then after some time, the brown colour of bromine vapour spreads into the upper gas jar making both the gas jars appear brown in colour. Which of the following conclusion obtained from these observations is incorrect?
A student placed a gas jar containing air in the upside down position over a gas jar full of red-brown bromine vapours. He observed that the red-brown colour spread upwards into the jar containing air. Based on this observation, the student concluded that it is only the bromine vapour which moves up and diffuses into air in the upper jar, the air from the upper jar does not move down by diffusion into the lower jar containing bromine vapours. Do you agree with this conclusion of the student? Give reason for your answer.
The substance X normally exists in a physical state which can flow easily but does not fill its vessel completely. It also turns anhydrous copper sulphate blue. When substance X is cooled excessively, it changes into a substance Y which has a fixed shape as well as a fixed volume. If, however, the substance X is heated strongly, it changes into a substance Z which has neither a fixed shape nor a fixed volume.
- Name the substances (i) X (ii) Y and (iii) Z.
- What is the process of conversion of X into Y known as ?
- At which temperature X gets converted into Y ?
- What is the process of conversion of X into Z known as ?
- At which temperature X gets converted into Z ?
