This sounds like homework. Have a go yourself with online dictionaries and then have a go at posting the answers. I would post one list at a time.

no homework, i was going to use the list as a starting point in understanding the logic of each list. My main goal is trying to understand the logic on how to classify the different abstract noun types.

thanks Philip, this is a good start for understanding the list.

Why, generosity is not a "state of being" because it seems its in a state of someone being generious?
Why generosity is not an emotion?
