The diagram shows water in a graduated cylinder. A student states that the graduated cylinder contains 150 mL of water. This statement is

• a prediction

• an observation

• a theory

• a hypothesis

The data table below shows that as the pressure of a gas sample was changed, the volume of the gas changed. The pressure was measured in atmospheres (atm) and the volume was measured in milliliters (mL). According to the data table, as the pressure of the gas increases, the volume of the gas...

A student set up the experiment shown to determine if radish seeds take in oxygen as they germinate (grow). Methylene Blue is a chemical that is blue when oxygen is present, but clear when oxygen is not present. Containers A and B each contained 200 mL of water and 10 drops of Mathylene Blue. Ten radish were added to container A, container B had no radish seeds. The purpose of container B (no radish seeds) in this experiment was to

• serve as the control container

• serve as the experimental container

• show that seeds do not give off oxygen

• show that seeds do not give off carbon dioxide
