100
A physical property of metals meaning it can be hammered or rolled into thin sheets.
What is malleability?
100
This is a test of the color of the mineral left behind in powdered form when rubbed on a porcelain tile.
What is a streak test?
100
This is the calculated density of an unknown object whose mass is 18g and volume is 9ml.
What is 2g/ml?
100
This type of energy is also called stored energy.
What is potential energy?
100
If two cars are driving at the different speeds towards a brick wall, this is how you know which one would have more kinetic energy and therefore do more damage to the brick wall.
What is the one that is going faster will have more kinetic energy?
200
The physical property of nonmetals that means it doesn't bend and breaks easily.
What is brittleness?
200
This is the scale used to compare minerals' hardness to other minerals and to other ordinary objects.
What is Moh's Hardness Scale?
200
This is the formula to solve for the volume of a regular shaped object.
L x W x H
200
These are the two factors that determine how much kinetic energy an object has.
What are mass and speed?
200
If you need to create a graphic to show data from a lab experiment, these could be possible choices.
What are line graphs, bar graphs, pie charts, etc.
(Graphs)
300
This is the number of metalloids and where they are located on the periodic table.
What is 7, and on the stair steps on the right side of the periodic table between the metals and nonmetals?
300
This mineral is known to be the hardest mineral with a ranking of a 10 on the Moh's Hardness Scale.
What is a diamond?
300
The mass of an object is measured on a triple beam balance at 62.4g. The volume of the object was found using a graduated cylinder of water and measured at 32 mL. This would be that object's density.
What is 1.95g/mL?
300
These are the three types of potential energies.
What are gravitational, elastic, and chemical?
300
When reading a graduated cylinder, this is the proper technique to make sure you get a good measurement.
You should get eye level and read the bottom of the meniscus of the water/liquid.
400
This is an element that has physical and chemical properties of both metals and nonmetals.
What are metalloids?
400
Using the Moh's Hardness Scale https://www.tdncreations.com/blog/jewelry-education/mohs-hardness-scale-hardness-comparison
This mineral will scratch Apatite but NOT Quartz.
What is Orthoclase?
400
An unknown object has a mass of 19 g and a volume of 25 cm3. This would be that object's density.
What is 0.76 g/cm3?
400
These are the two factors that determine an objects gravitational potential energy.
What are mass and height from the ground?
400
The designer of this roller coaster made a mistake. The cart will not make it to the end of the track. Which point will it get stuck? (must be able to explain why)
What is point X?
500
An unknown element has been observed to have the following physical properties.
Brittle, dull luster, and not a good conductor of heat or electricity.
This would be that type of element.
What is a nonmetal?
500
If a student wanted to test a mineral sample to determine what type of mineral it is, they could run tests on its properties. These are FOUR tests/properties the student could observe.
What are color, hardness, luster, and streak test?
500
When measuring the volume of an irregular shaped object, the student can use a graduated cylinder to measure water displacement. If the meniscus of the water started at 21ml and went up to 33ml, this would be the volume of the object.
If the mass is 27g, this is the density.
What is a volume of 12ml and a density of 2.25g/ml?
500
Two boulders are rolling down a hill towards Susie. If Susie wanted to try to stop the boulder with less kinetic energy, which of these should she choose? Why?
Boulder A with a mass of 45kg and a speed of 25km/hr
Boulder B with a mass of 20kg and a speed of 25km/hr.
What is boulder B? It has less mass so it has less Kinetic energy.
500
Which graduated cylinder has an object that is less 1.25 g/mL? (choose right or left AND be able to explain how you know)
The graduated cylinder on the left.
Because it is floating just under the surface and the other object is all the way at the bottom. If water has a density of 1 g/mL then an item less than 1.5 g/mL will be at the top.
