compressibility.
Fluidity : It is the Property of a matter which allows it to flow. It depends on the
force of attraction between the Particles. Smaller is the force of attraction between

Q.1. Why does a desert cooler cool better on a hot dry is Z lac io whe
ben On a hot dry day temperature is high and humidity is ee nes toe
evaporation increases. Moreover, the water vapours 20°0 mp ene ae
surrounding to regain the energy lost during evaporation. bea abe
makes the surroundings cold. Due to the higher rate of evaporat on a ae
of energy by water vapours, a desert cooler gives better cooling effect
dry day.
Q.2. How does the water kept in an earthen pot (matka) become cool during
summer?
Ans. There are some pores in an earthen pot. Water from inside the earthen pot seeps into
its walls through the pores. The particles of water on the walls absorb energy from
the surroundings and evaporate into the atmosphere. Since this energy is taken from
the water itself, it leads to the lowering of temperature of water in the pot.
Q.3. Why does our palm feel cold when we put some acetone or petrol or
perfume on it?
Ans. Acetone or petrol or perfume are volatile in nature. The particles of acetone or petrol
or perfume take away energy from the surface of palm or the surroundings and
evaporate. So our palm feels cold when we put some acetone or petrol or perfume
faster from a Saucer rather than a cup.
