• Step 4. Shake the bottle.

  Observation: The eyedropper will float to the top because water will come out of it, and the volume of air will increase.

• Step 4. Squeeze the sides of the bottle.

  Observation: The eyedropper will float to the top because water will come out of it, and the volume of air will increase.

• Step 4: Shake the bottle.

  Observation: The eyedropper will sink to the bottom because water will go inside it, and the volume of air will be reduced.

• Step 4: Squeeze the sides of the bottle.

Two students are discussing the law of conservation of mass. The students disagree on how to test conservation of mass, especially when the reaction involves the combustion of charcoal. Student A believes that burning charcoal violates the Law of Conservation of Mass because the charcoal produces heat when it burns, and the ashes weigh as much as the original briquettes. Student B believes that student A is mistaken because some of the products produced when burning charcoal are gases, and it is difficult to capture gaseous products.

Which experiment will provide the BEST method for testing the law of conservation of mass when burning charcoal?

• Place a pre-weighed briquette of charcoal into a pre-weighed porcelain dish. Heat the dish to cause the briquette to burn. Allow the charcoal to burn completely to ash. Weigh the ash and the dish. The initial mass of the briquette and the dish should be equal to the final mass of the ash and the dish.

• Place a pre-weighed briquette of charcoal into a pre-weighed porcelain dish inside of a combustion chamber containing a known mass of oxygen. Heat the dish to cause the briquette to burn. Allow the charcoal to burn completely to ash. Collect all the combustion gases while the briquette is burning. The total initial mass should equal the total final mass.

• Place a pre-weighed briquette of charcoal into a porcelain crucible. Heat the crucible to cause the briquette to burn. Allow the charcoal to burn completely to ash. Collect the combustion gases by bubbling them through water. The mass of the charcoal should equal the mass of the ash plus the mass of heat released, and the mass of gases produced.

• Place a pre-weighed piece of charcoal into a porcelain dish. Heat the dish to cause the charcoal to burn completely to ash. Collect the combustion gases after bubbling them through water. The mass of the charcoal and the dish should equal the total mass of products less the mass of heat produced

Chromium-55,

55

Cr

, is a radioactive isotope used in scientific research. It has a half-life of 2 hours. A scientist can perform her experiments as long as the original sample contains AT LEAST 15 grams of non-decayed chromium-55.

If a scientist begins with 1,000 grams of chromium-55 at 06:00, by what time of the day MUST she complete her experiment? (Note that time is given in 24-hour clock format)

• 14:00

• 16:00

• 18:00

• 20:00
