The weight of the beaker of ice cubes is  [Gap 1]  the weight of the beaker of liquid water. I know this because the ice cubes and the liquid water  [Gap 2 ].

• GAP 1: greater than

  
  GAP 2: have the same amount of matter

  
  

• GAP 1: less than

  
  GAP 2: take up different amounts of space

  
  

• GAP 1: equal to

  
  GAP 2: have the same amount of matter

  
  

• GAP 1: equal to

  
  GAP 2: take up different amounts of space

In a lab demonstration, Mr. Sharpe placed a piece of zinc into a glass beaker containing hydrochloric acid. When the two substances were mixed, the zinc turned black and hydrogen gas was released. What happened during the reaction?

• The zinc and hydrochloric acid changed, creating products with different properties.

• The zinc and hydrochloric acid all combined, creating one product with the same properties.

• Some of the zinc and hydrochloric acid became energetic, causing the zinc to evaporate the hydrochloric acid.

• 
  Some of the zinc and hydrochloric acid escaped, leaving behind smaller amounts of the same zinc and hydrochloric acid.

• What is the odor of the baking soda in the experiment?

  
  

• What is the texture of the baking soda in the experiment?

  
  

• How many milliliters of vinegar are used in the experiment?

  
  

• How many grams of baking soda are used in the experiment?

  
  

• What is the number of trials that are performed in the experiment?

Use the drop-down menus to complete the description of how the data collected could be used as evidence.

If the data show that the properties of the substances [Gap 1] when the substances are mixed together, then [Gap 2] . This is because all substances have [Gap 3] properties.

• GAP 1: change

  GAP 2: a new substance has formed

  
  GAP 3: unique

• GAP 1: stay the same

  
  GAP 2: there must be more substances in the beaker

  
  GAP 3: the same

  
  

• GAP 1: change

  
  GAP 2: there must be less substances in the beaker

  
  GAP 3: the same

  
  

• GAP 1: change

  GAP 2: there must be less substances in the beaker

  
  GAP 3: unique
