liquid to a gas
400
A gas has ____________ shape and ___________ volume.
indefinite, indefinite

I have a container filled with a mixture of sand and iron filings. What is the best way to separate the substances?
Spread the mixture out onto a smooth surface. Use a magnet to pick up the iron filings and separate them from the sand.
500
When a substances reaches its melting point, it changes from a-
solid to a liquid
500
Identify the boiling point and melting point of water.
100 degrees Celsius, 0 degrees Celsius.

What is the difference between REFLECTION and REFRACTION? Give examples of each.
Reflection is the bouncing of light (ex. you see your reflection in the mirror). Refraction is the bending of light. It causes objects to be magnified (ex. eyeglasses, cameras, magnifying lens, microscope).
500
COMPARE and CONTRAST: Balanced vs. Unbalanced forces
Balanced: an object in motion will continue moving at a constant speed. An object that is still will remain stills. Forces are equal. Unbalanced: an object will start moving, stop moving, change speed, change direction, change shape. The forces are NOT equal.

How do you know when a substance has completely dissolved in water? (Ex. salt or sugar)
It becomes virtually INVISIBLE. It seems to DISAPPEAR.
