A barometer develops a leak in the column which is supposed to be free of air. As air seeps into the column, what will happen to the height of the liquid?

• The height will increase

• The height will decrease

If you wanted to study the ozone layer, which region of the atmosphere would you study?

• troposhpere

• stratosphere

• heterosphere

If a sample of air is predominately oxygen, did it most likely come from the homosphere or the heterosphere?

• homoshpere

• heterosphere

We know that ice melts because of heat. Why is it also correct to say that ice also freezes because of heat?

• The molecules will not arrange correctly unless you have a l ittle heat

• Heat is energy transferred. You have to transfer heat to freeze a substance.
