SLG REVIEW

Why does solid water (ice) float when placed in liquid water?

• Ice is less dense than liquid water.

• Ice is more dense than liquid water.

• Ice has less mass than the water in which it is floating.

• Ice has less volume than the water in which it is floating.

Jada and Brian are using a Venn diagram to organize the information they learned about solids, liquids, and gases.

What should they write where all of the states overlap at position 7?

• Particles are spaced far apart.

• Particles are constantly moving.

• Shape depends on the container.

• Sample does not take shape of the container.

Ana is creating models to show atoms of solid bromine, liquid bromine, and gaseous bromine. How should her three models differ?

• The size of the atoms should vary depending on the state.

• The identity of the atoms should vary depending on the state.

• The motion of the atoms should vary depending on the state.

• The mass of the atoms should vary depending on the state.
