Physics - Thermal Properties of Matter
Practise 11 VITEEE previous year questions on Thermal Properties of Matter, compiled from papers spanning 2009 to 2023. Each question is pulled directly from the actual exam paper it appeared in, so you're practising in the exact style and difficulty VITEEE tests.
Thermal Properties of Matter has been asked in 8 of the 18 years of VITEEE papers analysed (2006–2024), with 11 questions in all. 55% of them were easy, 27% moderate and 18% tough. Most of its questions came from 2009, with 3 questions that year. In the last three years (2022–2024) it had 2 questions across 2 papers, about 1 per paper.
The chapter's 4 topics are not weighted equally: Thermal Expansion (4 questions, 36%), Calorimetry (3 questions, 27%), and Conduction (3 questions, 27%) have been asked the most. Thermal Expansion has also led over the last five years, with 2 questions. Calorimetry has produced the most tough questions (1).
