When a beam of sunlight enters a room through a window, we can see tiny particles X suspended in a gas (or rather a mixture of gases) Y which are moving rapidly in a very haphazard manner.
(a) What could particles X be ?
Name the gas (or mixture of gases) Y.
(c ) What is the phenomenon exhibited by particles X known as ?
(d) What is causing the movement of particles X ?
(e) What conclusion does the existence of this phenomenon give us about the nature of matter ?
