11.

A student was reading about the gases in air. Ozone helps protect Earth from harmful ultraviolet rays that come from the sun. Certain types of pollution created by humans have caused a hole in the ozone layer. This hole is over the South Pole and could become larger if this type of pollution increases. Which question should the student ask to determine if ozone is an elemental molecule? (7.PS1.2)

a)

What is the color of the molecule?

b)

What is the shape of the molecule?

c)

What elements are present in the molecule?

d)

How many atoms are present in the molecule?

12.

A student has been learning about atoms. He wrote a small paragraph describing one. The student describes particles on the edge of the atom. Which statement supports the student’s claim that the particles on the edge of the atom do not move away from the center? (7.PS1.1)

a)

The particles are connected to the center by an object similar to a rope.

b)

The particles are attracted to the center because they have a charge opposite to the center’s charge.

c)

The particles are held in place because atoms are a solid structure.

d)

The particles are pushed toward the center by the nuclear charges of other atoms.

13.

Using the data table and a periodic table, which three of these compounds are most likely to be conductors of electricity? (7.PS1.5)

15.

Students were looking at coins during lunch. One of them noticed that older pennies looked and felt different from new pennies. The students decided to investigate whether all pennies are made of the same materials. The students measured the mass and the volume of 10 pennies and then divided the mass by the volume to determine the density. The measurements were recorded in a data table. The teacher told the students that newer pennies contain copper and zinc. Copper has a density of 8.96 g/cm³. Zinc has a density of 7.1 g/cm³. Which statement is best supported by the data and information from the teacher?

a)

All pennies are pure copper.

b)

All pennies have the same amount of copper since their volume is the same.

c)

Pennies 1 through 5 are mostly copper because the mass of copper is less than the mass of zinc.

d)

Pennies 6 through 10 are mostly copper because their density is closer to copper’s density.

16.

Which of the following can indicate that a chemical change has occurred?

a)

light is emitted

d)

a change in smell or taste
