🗑
Define density   how compact something is; compactness  
🗑
What is the density of water?   1  
🗑
What is the density of oil?   0.8, less than 1  
🗑
If you need to dissolve 5g of sugar in water, how could you increase the speed at which it dissolves?   Stirring it which increases the temperature/ heats it up causing it to dissolve faster.  
🗑
What factors lead to why you would use a model instead of doing an experiment?   too big, too small, too fast, too slow, too dangerous  
🗑
For any given experiment, how would you improve the accuracy?   repeat it  
🗑
Is the following a chemical or physical property: flammable   chemical property  
🗑
Is the following a chemical or physical property: blue color   physical property  
🗑
Is the following a chemical or physical property: reacts with acid   chemical property  
🗑
Is the following a chemical or physical property: can rust   chemical property  
🗑
Is the following a chemical or physical property: can melt   physical property  
🗑
How do the particles move in a solid?   vibrating  
🗑
How do the particles move in a liquid?   free to move, takes shape of where it is being contained: moves faster than a solid.  
🗑
How many atoms are in a sugar molecule: C₆H₁₂O₆?   24 atoms  
🗑
Write a procedure to separate sand, sawdust, iron filings, salt, and styrofoam?   iron filings: magnetic, styrofoam: balloon rubbed on head, sawdust: fill with water and sawdust will float to the top, water will then evaporate so you have to filter out the sand.  
🗑
What is the law of conservation of mass?   Mass cannot be created or destroyed, it can only change forms.  
🗑
How are kinetic and potential energy related when moving from point A to point B on a roller coaster?   when moving from point A to point B, potential energy decreases as the kinetic energy increases.  
🗑
What slows down pendulums and roller coasters?   friction  
🗑
Name 4 different types of waves:   ocean, light, sound, seismic  
🗑
What is the frequency of a wave?   how often it vibrates  
🗑
What is the relationship between pitch and frequency?   Pitch and frequency mean the same thing except one is used in music (pitch) and the other is used in science (frequency)  
🗑
Describe absorption   the wave/energy is pulled/put in. (absorbed)  
🗑
Describe reflection   waves are bounced back  
🗑
Describe refraction   waves are bent  
🗑
What is a terrestrial planet's composition?   it is rocky  
🗑
What is a jovian planet's composition?   made of gas  
🗑
Why do we have phases of the moon?   half of the moon is always lit up, but because it orbits the earth, our perspective of the lit half changes.  
🗑
What makes a planet habitable?   liquid water  
🗑
How do we find new planets in our galaxy?   We look at the light coming from a star, if it decreases, a planet has gone in front of it.  
🗑
Why do we have seasons?   The earth is tilted as it revolves around the sun causing the length of day to change. The tilt means the 2 hemispheres get different amounts of sunlight resulting in longer/shorter days. A longer day means a warmer season.  
🗑
List in order by size(smallest to largest): galaxy, star, planet, atom, solar system, molecule, mineral, universe, rock, moon.   atom, molecule, mineral, rock, moon, planet, star, solar system, galaxy, universe.  
🗑
Why does the moon have more craters than earth?   earth has an atmosphere, erosion, and is mostly water  
🗑
On a clear, beautiful, sunny day, how do you know bad weather is on the way?   pressure drops  
🗑
Name a non renewable resource:   gas, coal, oil, etc  
🗑
Name a renewable resource:   hydro, solar, wind nuclear, geo thermal  
🗑
How do humans positively affect ecosystems?   give plants plenty or CO2.  
🗑
What is the equation for photosynthesis?   CO2 + H20 +light->O2 + sugar  
🗑
What is the equation for cellular respiration?   sugar + O2 ->CO2 +H2O +ATP  
🗑
Can a colorblind female have a color blind son with a husband that is not color blind?   Yes any son born has a 100% chance of being colorblind  
🗑
Is colorblindness dominant or recessive?   Recessive because you can carry it without having it.

Name 2 non-communicable diseases   cancer, colorblindness  
🗑
What is the function of decomposers in an ecosystem?   breakdown dead stuff into useful form (soil).  
🗑
How do the orbits of asteroids and comets differ?   Asteroids orbit closer and circular, Comets orbit further away and in an elliptical orbit.  
🗑
What happens to the polar ice caps on Mars when they disappear?   CO2 sublimates  
🗑
