9.

Mass is an extensive property because

a)

the mass changes when the size of the sample changes

b)

the mass will be the same because it can be compacted into a smaller space.

the boiling point changes when you add more of the sample.

10.

Which of the following best describes the particles when substances change from solid to liquid to gas?

a)

Solids are compact and close together; liquids are more fluid and have some space between the particles; gases have a lot of space between the particles.

b)

Solids have loosely-held, larger particles; liquids are more have some space between the particles, but are mostly rigid, and unable to move; gases have a lot of space between the particles.

c)

Solids are compact and close together; liquids are more have some space between the particles, but are mostly rigid, and unable to move; gases have smaller, fast-moving particles.
