What is solubility?

Solubility is the measurement of whether something dissolves in a liquid.

300

If you dissolve sugar in water, why does the total mass of the sugar-water solution equal the mass of the water plus the mass of the sugar? 

A. Because the sugar disappears in the water 

B. Because matter cannot be created or destroyed 

C. Because sugar is lighter than water 

D. Because the sugar turns into water

B. Because matter cannot be created or destroyed 

400

What state of matter has no definite shape or volume?

gas

What happens to atoms when heat is added?

Atoms get farther apart and move faster.

400

True or False: Physical Changes are often just a phase change.

True

400

What does dissolve mean?

Dissolve means to break down in a liquid.

Name an object/item that is a solid, liquid, and gas.

Miss Till will determine if your answer is correct.

500

What is freezing point? YOU MUST ALSO TELL ME THE TEMPERATURE.

Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid turns to a solid. It occurs at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).

500

What factors tell us a chemical change has occured?

If something new is created. It produces light, color change, heat, bubbles, sound, or a precipitate. You cannot easily reverse a chemical change.
500

What is the difference between solute and solvent?

Solvent is the substance that does the dissolving (the liquid). Solute is the substance that dissolves in the liquid.

When an ice cube melts in a sealed glass, what happens to the total mass of the container and its contents? 

A. Increases because liquid takes up more space 

B. Stays exactly the same 

C. Decreases because ice is heavier than water 

D. Changes depending on room temperature  

B. Stays exactly the same
