1.

Which is most likely a chemical property?

a)

Oxidation state: the charge an atom has if it was bonded ionically to other atoms. Different oxidation states indicate different abilities to bond with other atoms.

b)

Melting point: the temperature at which a solid turns into a liquid. Different substances have different melting points.

c)

Density: the amount of a substance that fits in a certain volume. Different states of matter of the same substance can have different densities.

d)

Conductivity: the ability to transfer electrical charges. Conductivity is different in different substances

2.

b)

color and shape

c)

color and odor

d)

shape and density

3.

Which is an example of a chemical change?

a)

boiling water

b)

melting butter

c)

chopping onions

d)

frying an egg

4.

During a camping trip, Sierra collected dry branches and broke them into smaller pieces. She then placed the sticks in a fire pit and used a match to light the sticks on fire. Next, she propped a metal pan of water over the fire and heated it until the water boiled.


Which list correctly describes physical and chemical changes that occurred in this scenario?

a)

physical change: breaking sticks

chemical changes: lighting the fire, boiling water

b)

physical change: boiling water

chemical change: breaking sticks, lighting the fire

c)

physical changes: lighting the fire, boiling water

chemical change: breaking sticks

d)

physical changes: breaking sticks, boiling water

chemical change: lighting the fire

5.

Which describes a value for density?

a)

a value for volume, such as m3, divided by a value for mass, such as kg

b)

a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume, such as m3

c)

a value for distance, such as m, divided by a value for time, such as s

d)

a value for time, such as s, divided by a value for distance, such as m

6.
