Objects that blow into a swimming pool or that are dropped into the pool by swimmers need to be removed. These objects include foam cups, keys, and coins. Which of the following explains a useful method for removing some of these objects? (5.5A)

The foam cups are less dense than water, so they can be removed from the surface with a pool cleaning net.

The keys and coins are less dense than water, so they can be easily picked up off the bottom of the pool by divers.

The foam cups have the same density as water, so they can crumbled up for removal by the pool filter.

The keys and coins have the same density as water, so they can washed away when the pool is drained.

Density can be used to separate objects that sink in water from objects that do not.

Magnetism can be used to separate objects that are attracted by a magnet from objects that are not.

Solubility can be used to separate objects that dissolve in water from objects that do not.

Physical state can be used to separate objects that are solids from objects that are not.

A student puts four objects in a bucket filled with water. Which two objects are most likely less dense than the water? (5.5A)

Wood block and metal paper clip

Metal paper clip and glass marble

Wood block and metal paper clip

Metal paper clip and glass marble

For an investigation a teacher dropped a bolt into a container of maple syrup and asked students to remove it without touching the syrup. The students first tried to use a strong magnet to remove the bolt, but it remained on the bottom of the container. They finally poured the syrup into another container to get the bolt out. Which of these best describes some of the bolt's physical properties? (5.5A)

The bolt is nonmagnetic and more dense than the maple syrup.

The bolt is magnetic and has the same density as the maple syrup.

The bolt is nonmagnetic and less dense than the maple syrup.

The bolt is magnetic and less dense than the maple syrup.

The table lists some physical properties of two objects. Based on their properties, which of the objects is most likely a metal? (5.5A)

Object 2, because metals conduct thermal energy and electricity

Object 1, because it is a solid that is less dense than water

Object 2, because all metals float in water

Object 1, because it can be used to provide insulation for thermal energy.

A student measured out 10 mL of four clear liquids and added one drop of a different-colored dye to each liquid. One of the liquids was water. The student then carefully poured each liquid into a graduated cylinder and let the mixture settle for 30 minutes. The student observed that the liquids had separated into layers, as shown in the diagram. Which of these procedures would help the student identify the layer of water? (5.5A)

Add water to the graduated cylinder, let the mixture settle, and then identify the layer that increases in volume as water

Stir the liquids, let them settle, and then identify the bottom layer as water

Drop a piece of ice into the graduated cylinder, let the ice settle, and then identify the layer just above the ice as water

Carefully pour each layer into separate plastic containers, place the containers in a freezer, and then identify the liquid that takes the longest to freeze as water.
