Wild Card
100

My particles are found tightly packed together and I do not change my shape.

Solid

100

The process where a liquid changes into a solid.

Freezing

100

Does an object's temperature increase or decrease when it absorbs energy?

Increases (gets hotter)

100

Evaporation of water from plants.

Transpiration

100

Give 2 examples of runoff.

Waterfalls, streams, brooks, creaks, rivers

200

My particles have lots of room to move around and they fill their container.

Gas

200

The process where a liquid changes into a gas.

Evaporation

200

Sweat on a cold soda can occurs because the water (released or absorbed) energy?

Release (condensation; water vapor gets colder as it touches the cold can and transfers heat to the can)

200

When water seeps underground.

Infiltration

200

Which conditions would be the best for a swimming pool to keep water?

1) open and sunny

2) closed and sunny

3) open and dark

4) closed and dark

4) closed and dark

300

My particles are loosely packed and my surface stays level when my container is tipped.

Liquid
300

The process where a solid changes into a gaS.

Sublimation

300

THREE state changes that are caused by water RELEASING energy.

Freezing (liquid > solid), Condensation (gas > liquid), Deposition (gas > solid)

300

When groundwater becomes surface water.

Groundwater Discharge

300

Correct ONE WORD to make it true:

Water vapor freezes into frost.

Water vapor DESPOSITS into frost.

OR

LIQUID WATER freezes into frost.

400

I am the state of matter that is found in clouds.

Liquid

400

The process that causes frost to form.

Deposition (soliD)

400

List FOUR state changes that are caused by water ABSORBING energy. 

EMS is hoT

Evaporation (liquid > gas), Melting (solid > liquid), Sublimation (solid > gas), & Transpiration (evaporation from plants)

400

When plants take in water through their roots.

Absorption

400

Correct ONE WORD to make it true:

The snow evaporates and then it goes into the atmosphere.

The snow SUBLIMATES and then it goes into the atmosphere.

OR

The WATER evaporates and then it goes into the atmosphere.

500

The place where a majority of water vapor is found.

Atmosphere

500

The process that causes droplets, or morning dew, to form on grass in the early morning.

Condensation
500

With your whole group, you have 45 seconds to draw a picture of the molecules before and after deposition. 

Molecules far apart turning into molecules tightly packed together.

500

This is the cause of precipitation, infiltration, and runoff.

Gravity

500

Give 3 examples of discharge areas?

Wells, wetlands (swamps), rivers, lakes, oceans, any other body of water
