A student pours ¼ cup of salt on a scale. The student then puts 3 cups of water in a container on the scale, and records the weight of the salt and the container of water. The student pours the salt into the container of water, and waits for it to dissolve. The student then weighs the salt and water solution. Which of the following best describes the weight of the salt and water mixture compared to the weight of the salt and water before they were mixed?

The weight of the salt and water mixture will be the same, because the mass of the salt and the mass of the water did not change.

The weight of the salt and water mixture will be less, because the salt lost some of its mass when it dissolved.

The weight of the salt and water mixture will be more, because the molecules will inflate, causing the mass to increase.

The weight of the salt and water mixture will be more because the water absorbs the salt, which increases the mass.

A glass is filled with 100 g of tea and ice cubes. Which best describes the weight of the contents after the glass sits in the sun for 2 hours?

The weight will be less than 100 g because some of the liquid will evaporate into the atmosphere.

The weight would be much less than 100 g mass is lost as the ice cubes melt.

The weight will be 100 g because the weight of the tea and the ice cubes will remain the same since no change occurs.

The weight will be more than 100 g because mass is increased as the ice cubes melt and more liquid is added to the glass.

Chris fit the pieces of a space shuttle model together. Which statement best describes how the pieces compare to the completed model?

The mass of the completed model equals the mass of all the pieces.

Each piece is stronger than the completed model.

Each piece is made from a different material than the completed model.

The mass of the completed model is more than the mass of the all the pieces.

Which best explains how Earth's climate is impacted by convection?

Convection helps move thermal energy around the Earth.

Convection helps cool the Earth and the atmosphere around it.

Convection continuously pumps cool energy through the oceans.

Convection stops the flow of cool air and maintains warm weather.

Add water to the object after it is burned

Split the object into two equal pieces before burning.

A student places a cup of cold water on a counter in a hot room. After a short time, the student notices that the water in the cup is no longer cold. Which best explains why the water in the cup is no longer cold?

The heat from the air transferred to the water in the cup, making the water in the cup warmer.

The coldness of the water transferred to the air, making the water in the cup warmer.

The coldness of the water was conducted to the cup, making the water in the cup warmer.

The heat from the air caused the cold water in the cup to condense, making the water warmer.

Examine the diagram. What would a teacher most likely use this image to explain?

Heat being added and taken away is causing physical changes in water.

Air being added and taken away is causing physical changes in water.

Heat being added and taken away is causing chemical changes in water.

Air being added and taken away is causing chemical changes in water.

Which best demonstrates a physical change?

The color of metal changing when it reacts with oxygen

Why should Ann leave space at the top of her plastic bottle when filling with water and then freezing it overnight?

Water expands when frozen, so the water will need more space.

Water contracts when frozen, so the water will need more space.

Plastic contracts when frozen, so the water will need more space.

Plastic expands when frozen, so the water will need more space.

Which best explains why boiling water is an example of a physical change?

The water changes from a liquid to a gas.

Heat is added, causing evaporation.

Heating the water causes solids to form.

Which is the best choice for the handle of a frying pan?

Wood, because it does not conduct heat.

Metal, because it conducts heat.

Wood, because it conducts heat.

Metal, because it does not conduct heat.

The position of a soccer ball over time is recorded in the graph below. Which best describes the movement of the soccer ball?

The ball traveled 30 meters, stopped, and returned to its starting point.

The ball traveled 20 meters and was kicked to the right.

The ball traveled 20 meters and returned to its starting point.

The ball traveled 50 meters, stopped, and returned to its starting point.

Which best explains how bacon is fried on a stove burner?

The stove burner transfers heat directly to the pan, and the pan directly transfer heat to the bacon.

The bacon creates a convection current, the heat rises to the pan, and then rises to the stove burner.

The bacon transfers heat directly to the pan, and the pan transfers heat directly to the stove burner.

The stove burner radiates heat to the pan, and the pan radiates heat to the bacon.

Students set up the investigation shown. What can the students do to increase the speed that the marble will roll down the ramp?

replace the board with a smoother board

use a longer board for the ramp

When Julie was cooking macaroni she noticed that it would rise to the top of the boiling water and then sink back to the bottom of the pot. This is most likely because

the convection of heat within the water was creating a current.

the convection of air around the pot was creating a current.

the conduction of heat within the water was creating a current.

the conduction of air around the pot was creating a current.
