A group of students mixed 10 ounces of liquid X with 12 ounces of liquid Y to create a new substance. The experiment was conducted in a closed soda bottle weighing 3 ounces. The students weighed the bottle with the new substance immediately following the experiment. Which best describes their results?

• It weighed 13 ounces because liquid Y dissolved in liquid X.

• It weighed 15 ounces because liquid X dissolved in liquid Y.

• It weighed 25 ounces because the weight of both liquids and the bottle remain the same and must be added together.

• It weighed 47 ounces because the weight of the liquids is doubled when they are mixed, and the weight of the bottle remains the same.

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 because 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.

Mrs. Champion’s class performed an experiment in which they combined 10 ounces of lemon juice with 15 ounces of vinegar to create a new cleaning solution. The experiment was conducted in a sealed spray bottle weighing 5 ounces. The students weighed the bottle with the solution immediately following the experiment. What did the students most likely discover about the weight of the solution and the bottle?

• It weighed 25 ounces because the solutions mixed and dissolved the bottle.

• It weighed 10 ounces because some of the solution dissolved when it was combined.

• It weighed 60 ounces because the solutions doubled in quantity when mixed together.

• It weighed 30 ounces because the solutions mixed and everything was contained inside the closed bottle.

A fresh apple is placed in a tightly sealed glass jar. The total mass of the jar and apple is measured. After a week, the apple in the jar begins to rot. The total mass is measured again. Which can be accurately predicted?

• The total mass will not change because the amount of matter in the jar and the apple will not change.

• The mass of the jar will be the total mass because no matter will be left in the jar after the apple rots.

• The total mass will increase because the rotting apple will produce gases.

• The total mass will decrease because the rotting apple will release heat.
