True or False. If Ms. Mathurin freezes apple juice and takes it out of the freezer the juice will be in liquid form? Why or Why not?
No it will be in a solid form. (Freeze: Liquid - Heat= Solid)

True

Mr. Cole is taking a trip to Hawaii. On this island he begins to explore and find a rock near a volcano. According to the three types of rocks, what type of rock did Mr. Cole find? Why can you guess that it is this type of rock?
Igneous: The rock is found near a volcano and Igneous Rocks are formed when magma cools (magma is found near volcanoes) therefore we can guess that the rock is most likely Igneous

Ms. Mathurin was drinking water and left her bottle of water outside in the sun. When she returned all the water was gone! What most likely happened to the water in the bottle?
The water evaporated. *How does heat affect evaporation?

Which of the following best describes a mineral? A. A solid natural material with a crystal structure B. A material that was once living but has decayed C. A liquid chemical used to make soil more fertile D. A nutrient produced by plants that
A solid natural material with a crystal structure

Do you add or subtract heat when... Change a gas into a liquid
Subtract heat *What part of the water cycle is this?
300
___________ can fill the entire space or volume of a container regardless of the container size.
gas
300
Describe how sediments form
Weathering and Erosion (the breakdown of rocks by rocks, water and wind. The movement of rocks from one location to another by water and wind) and create sediments
300
What state of matter is water vapor?
gas *What part of the water cycle does this occur?
300
Which of the following does not describe a mineral? a. Minerals are natural b. Minerals are found in rocks c. Minerals are pure d. Minerals are not found in rocks.
Minerals are not found in rocks.

Does heat slow down or speed up particles in ice?
Speed Up

What is a physical change of matter?
Change of size and shape extra points * Give an example of a physical change

A student observed a rock from the bottom of the ocean floor that looks shiny and glasslike. Which of the following statements describes how this type of rock most likely formed? A. Clay was crushed and frozen under a glacier. B. Lava from a volcano cooled quickly in water. C. River sediments were slowly compacted and cemented together. D. Mineral deposits hardened into solid rock in underground caves.
Lava from a volcano cooled quickly in water.

How does the water cycle affect the rock cycle?
The water cycle is the erosion and weathering that creates sediments (sedimentary rock).

Describe one difference between a rock and a mineral
rock is made up of more than one mineral where as a mineral is a pure substance

If the temperature in Lawrence is 42 degrees what form of precipitation will most likely form? How do you know this?
rain. Because water's freezing point is 32*F and anything over falls as rain and another below falls as a solid.
500
What are the three stages in the rock cycle? What Happens at each stage?
Igneous: Melting (Magma) cools Sedimentary: Weathering and Eriosion, Sediments, Compacting Metamorphic: Heat and Pressure

If water is Evaporated from the Lake Erie, how can it one day fall as rain water in Lawrence. (Use the four steps of the water cycle in your answer)
1. Water in Lake Erie is evaporated 2. Condensation happens and clouds are formed 3. Wind moves the clouds over to lawrence 4. The clouds become heavy and precipitation occurs 5. Water that is not absorbed falls as rain water

What is the Moh's scale? What does it measure?
The Moh's scale measures the hardness and softness of minerals by ranking them from 1-10. One being the softest (Talc) and 10 being the hardest (Diamond)

Ms. Mathurin took a weekend long trip to Buffalo, New York with her little sister Arie. She will get to New York on Saturday and wanted to predict the weather for Sunday. Saturday’s high temperature in Buffalo, New York will be 15°F, with high winds. Sunday’s high will be 7 degrees warmer than Saturday’s. What form of precipitation will most likely form on Sunday?
Snow *What form of matter is snow?
