300

When a liquid cools to form a solid. 

What is freezing?

300

The mixture made when one substance dissolves in another. 

What is the solution?

300

What needs to be done so that this bulb will light? 

A battery or cell needs to be added and the switch must be closed. 

300

Would you expect these lightbulbs to be bright or dim when the circuit is complete? 

Give a reason for your answer. 


Bright, this is a parallel circuit and the current is split. 

400

Name three differences between plants and animal cells. 

Plant cells have chloroplasts, a vacuole and a cell wall. 

400

When a solid cools to form a liquid.

What is melting?

400

Name three soluble solids. 

Sugar 

Salt 

Coffee

Why is it unsafe to use electrical devices near water?

Water is a conductor and you could get an electric shock.

400

John sets up the following circuit, but the bulb does not light. Give 3 reasons why the bulb did not light. 


The bulb was broken 

The circuit had a gap somewhere (not completed) 

The battery was flat. 

500

When a gas cools to form a liquid. 

What is condensation?

500

Name three substances which are insoluble in water. 

Flour 

Wood

Sand 

500
The electric flow of a circuit. 

What is the current of a circuit?

500

As this circuit is, which lightbulbs will be on and which will be off? 

X and Y will be on as it is a parallel circuit and they are making a complete circuit with the cell. 

Z and Q will be off as they are in a circuit with the open switch, S

600

What device is used to measure current?

An ammeter

600

If the reading at A1 is 0.54A, what will the reading at A2 be? Explain your answer.

0.54A as current in a series circuit is constant/equal. 

700

How do plants respire?

Photosynthesis

700

Current is measured in ____________ . 

Amps

700

What is the missing Ammeter reading? Explain your answer. 

2A, as the current at the branches of a parallel circuit equal the total current that flows from the source (battery).
