300

Define physical change.

A change in the observable properties of matter.

300

State the Law of Conservation of Matter.

Matter cannot be created nor destroyed, only changed (transformed).

500

If 15 grams of powder reacts with 12 grams of liquid to produce a bubbling black liquid with a mass of 22 grams, what can be concluded?

a. the reaction violates the law of conservation

b. 5 grams of gas was produced

500

Explain the process of photosynthesis.

In order to make energy for survival, a plant must use light energy to produce a reaction between carbon dioxide and water.  Glucose and oxygen are produced as a result of the reaction.
