Question

List and briefly describe three properties of air ?

Answer 1

Dear student
Properties of Air
1.Colorless and odourless: Air generally has no color or odour. It is an invisible matter that can only be felt.

2.Occupy space:
It is a mixture of different gases. Hence, like every other matter, they also occupy space.e.g. On blowing, a balloon expands because the air being blown into it fills in the empty space.

3.Air exerts pressure: It has weight, and the pressure exerted by the weight of air is known as air pressure. Due to gravity, this mixture of gases near the surface is denser than at high altitudes.
