What is the difference between an element and a compound? Give me an example of each.
An element is a pure substance that can not be broken down into a simpler substance. A compound is a substance made up of two or more elements that are chemically bonded together.

State the law of conservation of energy:
Energy is neither created nor destroyed, it only changes from one form to another.

One advantage of using biomass as a renewable energy source is that biomass – A is a less concentrated energy source, making it less efficient. B is a more expensive option when compared to other fossil fuels. C releases some harmful emissions into the atmosphere when burned. D decreases waste products from municipal and agricultural sources.
D decreases waste products from municipal and agricultural sources.

Where on the periodic table would metals, nonmetals, and metalloids be located?
Metals would be to the left of the staircase, metalloids on the staircase, and nonmetals to the right.

All of the following are evidence of a chemical change EXCEPT – A change in state of matter. B formation of a gas. C color change. D precipitate forms.
A. Change in state of matter.

What is the difference between kinetic and potential energy? Give examples of both.
Kinetic energy is energy of motion. Potential energy is stored energy.

A rock with a mass of 70 grams is dropped into a graduated cylinder with 30 mL of water in it. The water level rose to 35mL. Calculate the density of the rock in g/mL.
The density of the rock is 14g/mL

The advantage of burning coal in order to generate electricity is that coal is – A an inexpensive source of energy. B the least energy efficient fossil fuel. C a non-polluting source of energy. D a renewable energy source.
A an inexpensive source of energy.

A student mixes two clear liquids together. After a few minutes, a white powder can be seen settling on the bottom of the test tube. Which of the following is a conclusion that the student can draw based on these observations? The two clear liquids – A have combined to produce a new substance. B were pure substances before they were mixed. C are toxic and should be handled with extreme caution. D have been stored too long and are no longer good.
A. have combinded to produce a new substance.

Explain the difference between a balanced and unbalanced force.
Balanced forces will not cause a change...what does that mean? Balanced forces will not cause a change in the motion of a moving object or cause a nonmoving object to start moving. Unbalanced forces WILL produce a change in the objects motion. This could be a change in speed...direction or even both.

Scientists test for the hardness of a mineral by doing which of the following? A Measuring the mass of the mineral and comparing it against other minerals B Observing how light reflects off the mineral and how the mineral looks as a result C Observing the color of a mineral and comparing it against other minerals D Scratching the mineral against other substances of known hardness
D. Scratching the mineral against other substances of known hardness.

Organisms that are members of the family Coccinellidae are heterotrophic, reproduce sexually, and are multicellular. Knowing this, we can be certain they belong to which Kingdom? A Animalia B. Plantae C Eubacteria D Protista
Plantae

An atom

How is a physical change different from a chemical change? What are properties of both?
A physical change is when matter changes size, shape, or form. A chemical change is when the substances that make up an object have been changed into other changes. Chemical changes: produces a new substance, a new color appears, heat, light, or sound, bubbles of gas are formed, a solid material (precipitate) is formed, the change is impossible or difficult to reverse. Physical change: size, shape, or state of matter (solid, liquid, gas) has changed.
