A student collects data on the properties of four different substances and records them in a table. What makes Material 4 different from the other materials? Only Material 4 -
looks like colored crystals
does not dissolve in water.
is not magnetic.

A student was investigating a sample of matter that is attracted to a magnet and is a good conductor of electricity. Based on this evidence, the matter is made of -
iron
wood
glass
paper

A group of students have a block of aluminum 10 cm by 10 cm by 10 cm. They conducted some tests and recorded their results. The students found a smaller block of aluminum that is only 1 cm by 1 cm by 1 cm. Which property do we expect to observe in the smaller block? The smaller block will -
have a mass of 2.8kg
float in water.
conduct electricity.
be attracted to a magnet.
Students filled a graduated cylinder with water and oil. Next they placed two samples, Substance X and Substance y, in the same graduated cylinder. The illustration shows the final positions of all these materials. What conclusion can be drawn from this observation?
Water is less dense than oil.
Substance Y is less dense than oil.
Oil is more dense than water.
Substance X is less dense than water.

Water and oil are poured into the same container. An object is added. The materials are allowed to sit and their final positions are shown in the illustration. What is the most reasonable conclusion that can be made from this test?
The object has the lowest density.
Water is more dense than oil.
The object is more dense than water
Oil has the highest density.

Container 1
Container 2
Container 3
Container 4
