3. Anything that takes up space is what
Anything that takes up space is what? Bonus: How do you measure the amount of space something takes up?

4. Matter
100

5. An object’s _________ will differ depending on where it is in the universe. A) Mass B) Weight C) Density D) Volume

6. Weight Fact: An object’s weight depends on the gravitational pull of the earth. An object weights 6 times more on earth than it does in space (due to gravity).

7. Which tool would be used to measure the mass of a battery? A) B) C) D)

8. a Balance
300

9. Which liquid has a greater density?
Liquid A
Liquid B
Liquid C

10. Liquid C
Why? Because the matter is packed tighter together in Liquid C causing it to settle at the bottom
400

11. A beaker would most likely be used to find the __________ of a liquid.
Hint: What measurement of matter?

12. Volume Fact: Volume determines the amount of space an object takes up
Volume Fact: Volume determines the amount of space an object takes up. We could measure how much space the liquid takes up in milliliters.

13. Identify each state of matter in relation to the number of molecules in each?

14. Liquid A)
Solid B)
Gas C)
100

15. What is the point at which a liquid changes to a solid

16. Freezing Point Bonus: What is the point at which a solid changes to a liquid?
200

17. Which of the following is an example of a chemical change?
Sugar
Salt A B C D

18. A The fire is a chemical change because it produces something new – a gas

19. An ice cube was put on a scale and weighed 3 ounces
An ice cube was put on a scale and weighed 3 ounces. One hour later the ice cube melted. How much will the melted ice weight?

20. The ice should weight the same (or a little less due to evaporation) because the only thing that happened was a physical change.
400

21. Boiling Points of Various Liquids
If the temperature of vegetable oil reached 400 degrees what state of matter would it be in?

22. Gas Why? Because once the substance reaches the boiling point it changes phases of matter (from a liquid to a gas)
500

23. What is two or more substances that have not combined chemically called?

24. Mixture Bonus: Give an example of a mixture?
100

25. Because sugar dissolves in water what is Kool-Aid an example of?

26. Solution
200

27. Is salt or pepper more soluble in water based on the pictures below:
Salt and Water
Pepper and Water

28. Salt because it mixes more thoroughly in the water.

29. What steps could you do to separate a mixture of salt, water, and rocks?

30. 1. Evaporate the water out of the mixture (sun or heat) 2
1. Evaporate the water out of the mixture (sun or heat) 2. Pick the rocks out of the mixture. 3. Leave the salt with all three substances separated.
400

31. Which process would result in the forming of a solution
Which process would result in the forming of a solution? A) Evaporation B) Melting C) Freezing D) Dissolving

32. D) Dissolving – because if a substance dissolves in another substance it creates a solution (such as sugar and water).

33. What type of energy is stored energy that can be released later?

34. Potential Energy
100

35. What types of energy can electricity convert to?

36. Heat, Sound, and Light Also motion
200

37. If each light bulb is NOT hooked up to the energy source what type of circuit is it called:
Series circuit
Parallel circuit
Magnetic circuit
Copper circuit

38. Series Circuit
300
300

39. This prism is an example of light doing what?
Reflecting
Refracting
Sliding
Flipping

40. B) Refracting because the light is bending as it passes through the object
400

41. When the student bangs the drum what makes the sound?

42. Vibrations
500

43. Which is the correct order to show how energy flows through this community?A) B) C)

44. C)
The primary source of energy is the sun. The sun gives energy to the plants to make photosynthesis and herbivores eat the plants while carnivores eat the herbivores.

45. This tool is used to measure what

46. Temperature
200

47. This is the statement that states what you “think” will happen
This is the statement that states what you “think” will happen. Educated Guess.

48. Hypothesis

49. Which plant would most likely live in a cool, dry climate? Why?B

50. A Because the thin dry leaves (needles) can survive the cold Bonus: What type of tree is this called? (300 points)
400

51. Which of the following best helps an owl survive in a cold climate?
Nocturnal Eyes
Pointed Beak
Camouflage
Thick Fur

52. Thick Fur (for cold climates)
