Water Cycle/Properties of Matter Final Test Review

Front

What is a chemical change?

Back

A chemical change is a process where substances combine or break apart to form new substances, which cannot be reversed easily.

Front

What is a physical change?

Back

A physical change is a change that affects one or more physical properties of a substance without altering its chemical composition.

Front

What happens during condensation?

Back

Condensation is the process where water vapor cools and changes back into liquid water, forming droplets.

Front

What is evaporation?

Back

Evaporation is the process where liquid water turns into water vapor due to heat.

Front

What is precipitation?

Back

Front

What is transpiration?

Back

Transpiration is the process by which plants release water vapor into the air through their leaves.

Front

Why is baking a cake a chemical change?

Back

Baking a cake is a chemical change because the ingredients undergo a chemical reaction and cannot be reversed.

Front

What are the properties of matter?

Back

The properties of matter include characteristics such as mass, volume, density, color, and state (solid, liquid, gas).

Front

What is the water cycle?

Back

The water cycle is the continuous movement of water through evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass.
