(B) Mass is the force exerted by gravity on an object.
(C) Volume is the amount of space occupied by a substance.
(D) Temperatures below \(0^\circ\)C are possible in Celsius scale, but in Kelvin scale negative temperature is not possible.

Show Hint
- (A), (B) and (C) Only
- (B), (C) and (D) Only
- (C), (D) and (E) Only
- (A), (D) and (E) Only
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
- (A) is incorrect. Weight is the force exerted by gravity on an object, not the amount of matter.
- (B) is incorrect. Mass is the amount of matter, not the force due to gravity.
- (C) is correct. Volume is indeed the amount of space occupied by a substance.
- (D) is correct. Temperatures below \(0^\circ\)C are possible in Celsius scale, but negative temperatures are not possible in the Kelvin scale. - (E) is correct. Precision refers to the closeness of repeated measurements. Thus, the correct answer is (3) (C), (D) and (E) Only.
