What does a rating of 1 on the HAZPAK ranking chart mean?

It is very likely that there will be a severe injury or illness from the hazard.

100

How are the particles in a solid arranged?

Tightly packed together.

100

What is density defined as?

The amount of matter within a certain volume.
100

What part of the bunsen burner should you hold when moving it around the room?

The base

100

What are animals called that only eat plants?

Herbivores

200

What branch of Science is "The study of forces, movement and energy"?

Physics

200
Are particles always moving?

Yes, unless the temperature is at absolute zero.

200

Water has a density of 1. Honey has a density of 1.36. If we pour both liquids into a measuring cylinder, what one would be on top?

Water

200

What are the two types of flames the Bunsen Burner can have?

Safety (yellow) flame and working (blue) flame

200
What is the smallest planet in the Solar System?

Mercury

300

What is an Inference?

A possible explanation for an observation.

300

What are particles described as in the particle model?

They are small, hard, round balls called particles.

300

How can I measure the volume of a mass using a measuring cylinder?

Putting it into the water and measuring the displacement of the water. This will equal the volume.

300

What is the name of the part on the bunsen burner that swivels to cover the air hole?

Collar

300

What is the order of the planets in the Solar System starting with the planet closest to the Sun?

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

400

An example of qualitative data would be..

Descriptive, can be observed but not measured.

E.g. colour, smell, taste

400

What is the change of state called when a liquid changes to a gas?

Evaporation

400

How does a hot air balloon float?

The heat in the balloon causes the particles to move further away from each other, making it less dense. The gas in the balloon is less dense than the air around it, so it will float.

400

When lighting a bunsen burner, do you light the match or turn the gas on first?

Light the match.

400

What are the colours of a rainbow?

Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet

500

What are the headings that should be in a scientific report?

Title, Aim, Hypothesis, Materials, Method, Results, Discussion, Conclusion

500
What is the change of state called when a gas changes to a liquid?

Condensation

500

What is the formula for density?

Density = mass/volume

500

What is the name of the man who invented the Bunsen Burner?

Robert Bunsen

If you spent a year in Space, would you come back taller, shorter or the same height?
Taller because you'll no longer be subjected to gravity in space.
