These answers are a bit of a mixed bag. Number 10 is good though, so point to mgwilliams. Not the same as my answer though so all 10 are still open!

I think 3 and 5 are the only ones with really clear distinctions there, but don't fit the clues so well. In the end I have to just judge it the best I can, sorry if it seems harsh!
