The density of water is 1 g/mL. the density of a shell is 1.12g/cm3. Will the shell sink or float?

Shell will sink. 

200

This is the name of the tool we used to pick up the steel wool. 

What are "tongs"?

200

The color, length, volume, mass, opacity, etc are examples of Physical or chemical properties?

Physical Properties

200

Boiling water to make steam. 

Endothermic reaction

200

This is the term that describes the amount of space an object takes up. NOT the weight of it. 

What is "volume"?

300

This is the formula you use to find density, using volume and mass. 

What is "density = mass/volume"?

300

This is the name of the gas that was produced when we mixed baking soda and vinegar together.

What is "carbon dioxide"?

300

When a candle is lit, this is the part of the candle that is actually on fire. (aka what is the "fuel" of the candle?)

What is the "vaporized wax"? NOT THE WICK

300

Ice melting in your hand.

Endothermic reaction.

300

This is a type of reaction that releases energy from the system in the form of heat. (aka the chemical reaction is giving off heat).

What is an "exothermic reaction"?

400

This is an example of the state of matter "plasma". 

What is "Aurora Borealis, lightning, neon signs, etc"?

400

There was an experiment where heat was produced, making it exothermic. What are the two materials used in this experiment?

What are "steel wool and vinegar"?

400

Copper conducts electricity.

Physical

400

Water freezing into ice.

Exothermic reaction

400

This is the term used when a solid changes directly to a gas, skipping the liquid phase. 

What is "sublimation"?

500

Describe the difference between "states of matter" and "properties of matter". Short explanation..... I will go around and check your answers. 

States of Matter: what state a substance is in (physical state of being)


Properties of Matter: characteristics of a substance such as color, if it's acidic, if it's toxic, etc.

500

Why did soaking the steel wool in vinegar cause it to rust? Short explanation... I will go around and read your answers

Vinegar dissolved the protective coating on the steel wool. The pure steel wool was then exposed to oxygen in the air which led to oxidation and rusting. 

500

Digestion of food.

Chemical

500

Dry ice turning into carbon dioxide gas.

Endothermic reaction

500

This is the term used when a gas turns directly into a solid, skipping, the liquid phase. 

What is "deposition"?
