What is (A) ice melting into water...b/c you can reverse it by freezing it again
400
The gravitational pull on an object is the object's ________.
What is WEIGHT. Your weight will change on the moon bc of the gravitational pull, but you mass (the amount of matter you are made of) will remain the same
400

What is chemical change...bubbles and irreversible.
400
Explain how wind and one of the types of heat transfer are related? clue: its not touch or radiation!
What is wind works are a convection cell... Warm air rises and cool air falls. Convection in liquids and gases works the same way. Warmer temps rise and cooler temps fall.

What is...the piece of paper takes of more space (volume), but the text book is has more matter in it (mass).
500
Using a piece of paper...tell me one chemical change and one physical change that you could do to it.
What is "answers vary" (ex) (physical) fold it, bend it, roll it, cut it, wrinkle it (chemical) burnt it, put it in chemicals, etc
500
