Open toed shoes and crocks.

What is unacceptable lab attire? 

200

Any physical substance that takes up space and has mass. 

What is matter?

200

To reach, through the addition of thermal energy, the temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas.

What is boil?

200

This assignment is generally assigned every Monday and due by Wednesday morning.

What is the vocabulary list?

200
The process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance when there is a difference of temperature or of electrical potential between adjoining regions, without movement of the material.

What is conduction? 

300
To ensure proper safety protocols are followed during science class, students with long hair must...

What is tying back your hair/ponytail? 

300

Matter that has a defined state and takes up a definite amount of space.  

What is a solid?

300

To reach, through the addition of thermal energy, the temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid.

What is melt? 

300
All students should store their backpacks and all other personal belongings...

Where is under the desk? 

300

The movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.

What is convection? 

400

Types of unacceptable behavior in the science classroom include...

What is horseplay? What is running around? What is throwing items? What is not following directions? 

400

Matter that takes up a defined amount of space but takes the shape of its container.

What is a liquid? 

400

What is the phases of matter? 

400

While performing an experiment, a student breaks a glass beaker and no one else sees. The student should...

What is immediately notify the teacher? 

400

The process of carrying thermal energy from object to object, even through empty space. When the waves strike a material, the particles in the material absorb energy and move faster.

What is radiation? 

500

A resource for finding out more information about any potentially dangerous chemicals used during labs. 

What is the MSDS sheet?

500

Matter that has no defined size or shape.

What is a gas? 

500

A type of renewable energy taken from the Earth's core. It comes from heat generated during the original formation of the planet and the subsequent radioactive decay of materials.

What is geothermal energy? 

500

Quizzes and vocabulary lists will be submitted through this platform...

What is Google Classroom? 

500

Used to create a barrier between the hot and the cold object that reduces heat transfer by either reflecting thermal radiation or decreasing thermal conduction and convection from one object to the other.
