Name all three subparticles in an atom

Proton, neutron, electron

100

What are 2 examples of physical properties

Color, mass, length, volume, boiling point, melting point, freezing point, texture, density, height, solubility

100

What is the height of the wave called?

Amplitude

100

What type of energy do plants need in order to do photosynthesis?

Light energy

100

Name a factor that influences the rise in global temperatures

Greenhouse gases, deforestation, volcanos, agriculture, burning of fossil fuels

200

What does the law of conversation of matter state?

Matter is not created or destroyed

200

A change in color, gas formation, combustion (formation of fire), new odor, formation of a precipitation are all evidence of what kind of change?

Chemical Change

200

Describe the relationship between amplitude and energy.

Amplitude and energy have a direct relationship.

200

Identify a natural cause and a human cause of carbon found on earth.

Natural- photosynthesis, volcanos, forest fires, decaying organisms, biological waste products.

Human- Factories, cars, burning fossil fuels, digging for resources, deforestation


200

Define greenhouse gas (bonus 20 points if you can name 2 greenhouse gases)

Molecules in the air that keep heat trapped in our atmosphere
300

Define Density (bonus 30 points if you can also identify the formula)

The amount of matter in a certain amount of volume (space)

300

What is the difference between natural and synthetic materials?

Natural materials are found naturally on the Earth, and synthetic materials are man-made

300

What is it called when a wave bends as it goes through an object?

Refraction

300

Identify the reactants of photosynthesis (bonus 30 points if you can remember the exact number of molecules)

6 Carbon dioxides and 6 waters

300

Describe the difference between a renewable resource and a nonrenewable resource.

Renewable resources replenish is a short time period (less than 100 years) nonrenewable resources can take way over 100 years to replenish.

400

What is an independent variable, dependent variable, and a control in an experiment.

Independent- the factor that changes

Dependent- What is measured

Control- The factor(s) that stay the same

400

What is is called when gas particles cool down and convert to a liquid?

Condensation

400

Which 2 factors influence how much gravitational potential energy an object has?

Mass and height

400

Describe the path of matter and energy getting to a carnivore.

Producers --> herbivores --> carnivores

400

What causes natural resources to be unevenly distributed?

Geological processes

500

Does this chemical equation follow the law of conservation of mass? Explain why

C3H8 + O2 --> H2O + CO2

No. There are not an equal amount of atoms.

This is correct:

C3H8 + 5O2 --> 4H2O + 3CO2

500

Describe how a hot air balloon works (words that need to be included- particles, thermal energy, density)

The thermal energy from the fire transfers to the air particles, they move faster and spread farther apart, which causes the air in the hot air balloon to be less dense then the air outside it (then it floats).
500

What is the relationship between speed and mass with the amount of kinetic energy an object has?

Mass and speed have a direct relationship with kinetic energy.

500

What is the entire equation for cellular respiration (bonus 50 points if you give the specific amounts of all the the molecules)

1 glucose + 6 oxygen molecules --> 6 carbon dioxide molecules + 6 water molecules

500

What are the specific conditions needed for a hurricane to occur?

Warm ocean waters, cooler atmospheric temperatures, moisture in the air, thunderstorms, wind
