Answer 1

Air, Smell,Thoughts,Cold,Hate&Almonds are pure matter

Answer 2

Answer:

almonds because they are nearly pure benzaldehyde.

Explanation:

Generally pure matter refers to a material which is composed of only one type of particle. For instance, a pure substance could be gold, oxygen and water.

Chair is not a pure matter because its made from more than one matter or more than one particle.

Air is not pure either because it too is made up of many gases.

smell, hate, thought, cold, smell of perfume, cold drink are also not matter. Because the tangible things are made up of more than one substance and the intangible ones are not even matter, thus none of these.
