Janis is investigating the properties of an unknown substance. Which would be one way to determine if the substance contains iron?
It is attracted to Iron.
Ingrid places a toy rocket on one side of a balance. She adds plastic cubes to the other side of the balance and finds that it takes 137 cubes to make the sides even. Ingrid then takes the rocket apart and places the rocket parts back on the balance.
Now how many cubes will Ingrid most likely place on the balance to make the sides even?
137 cubes

Joshua has a bag of identical snap-together blocks. He makes a toy building using 15 of the blocks and puts the building on the left side of a balance. He puts a handful of blocks on the right side of the balance without counting them. The left side of the balance rises higher than the right side. Why does this most likely happen?
He has more blocks on the right side of the balance.
Tiko is washing the dishes. He puts the clean, wet dishes on the drying rack. Tiko knows that, over time, the water on the dishes will disappear and the dishes will be dry.
