List it out! 100 points per correct answer! Up to 600
Make a table with physical properties of water on the left and chemical properties of water on the right. List up to 3 physical and 3 chemical properties of water.
Physical: clear/colorless, freezes @ 0oC, boils @ 100oC, odorless, tasteless, liquid/fluid @ room temp
Chemical: not flammable, reacts w/acids and bases, not highly reactive
The 4th step in the scientific method. This is when data is collected.
Analysis/observation
What are the 2 types of pure substances?
Elements
Compounds
Multiply:
4.0 x 106 x 2.0 x 103
8.0 x 109
Make the calculation and round your answer to the correct number of significant figures:
2.085 cm + 3.5 cm
5.6 cm
Term for any type of data that involves numbers.
Quantitative data
Why did the can of Coke sink while the can of Diet Coke floated in water?
Coke has sugar, Diet Coke has sweetener (much lighter)

Bonus 500 points if you can give a second name for this type of mixture.
Homogenous
Bonus: solution
Divide:
6.0 x 1012 / 6.0 x 104
1.0 x 108
Make the calculation and round your answer to the correct number of significant figures:
3.1 g / 0.0200 cm3
160 g/cm3
DAILY DOUBLE! 500 points each!
