7.

Beaker#1 has 100 mL of water and Beaker#2 has 500 mL of water. In order to identify common physical properties between both substances, both substances were heated to 100 oC. After a few minutes both substances begin to bubble at the same time.

a)

This experiment provides evidence that the boiling point is a property independent of the amount of water.

b)

This experiment provides evidence that the boiling point does change based on sample size.

c)

This experiment provides evidence that the volume remains constant in the samples.

d)

This experiment provides evidence of a change in the volume of the samples.

8.

Which would be the most useful for identifying an unknown substance?

a)

Weight because it does not depend on sample size

b)

volume because it will depend of the size of the sample

c)

mass because it will depend on the size of the sample

d)

density because it does not depend on sample size
