55 mL.
Problem (question)
An atom
What powers the water cycle?
What celestial body orbits the Earth?
The moon
What tool would you use to measure a liquid?
Graduated cylinder, Erlenmeyer flask, beaker
An educated guess as to what will happen in an experiment.
Two or more atoms combined.
What is the main source of water for the water cycle?
The ocean
What process gives us day and night?
Where should you look when measuring a liquid?
What are the 3 types of variables in an experiment?
independent variable, dependent variable, controlled variable
Describe acids.
Sour, dissolve metal, change color, burn
Name the 4 steps in the water cycle.
Evaporation, condensation, precipitation, collection (accumulation)
What are the names of the planets in our solar system?
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
What tool would you use to measure mass?
Digital scale or triple beam balance
What NEEDS to be collected in any experiment?
Data
What is the law of the conservation of matter?
Matter is neither created or destroyed, it only changes forms.
Why is preserving fresh water so important?
What causes the seasons? How long does this process take?
Earth's revolution (orbit) around the sun. 365.25 days
The name of where you should look to measure a liquid. (the curve of a liquid in a container)
What is the meniscus?
The last step in the scientific method.
Conclusion and Report
What does the law of the conservation of matter mean?
Give an example. (in an experiment were baking soda and vinegar are combined in a closed environment, the total mass at the beginning will be the same at the end).
Define/explain all 4 steps of the water cycle.
Evaporation: when the sun heats the water up enough to turn it from a liquid to a gas.
Condensation: when the water vapor (gas) gets high enough in the school that the air is cold and cools the gas back to a liquid droplet (how clouds are made)
Precipitation: rain, snow, sleet, hail
Collection/Accumulation: water that is collected (ponds, lakes, oceans)
It is the closest star to the Earth so it appears both bigger and brighter.
