1 answer

Here are the answers to your questions based on scientific principles:

  1. Which statement correctly describes the relationship between thermal energy and particle movement?

    • As thermal energy increases, there is more particle movement.
  2. A scientist adds iodine as an indicator to an unknown substance. What will this indicator reveal about the substance?

    • the presence of starch.
  3. A student wants to try to convince her parents to stop serving peas for dinner. She lays out her argument that peas are high in fructose, which is a type of sugar. Which test could she use to provide scientific evidence to support her argument that peas are high in fructose?

    • Benedict’s test.
  4. The expression like a ton of bricks means “a crushing weight.” Would being hit by an actual ton of bricks hurt if it happened on the moon?

    • Yes, it would hurt because the bricks would still have the same mass. (Weight is affected by gravity, but mass remains the same regardless of the location.)
  5. Which measurement is affected by gravity?

    • weight.
  6. What happens to the density of a material if you have a larger piece of it?

    • The density will remain the same because mass and volume will both increase in the same way.
  7. A beaker contains a mixture of sand and salt. A student adds water to dissolve the salt. Which processes can be used to separate out the sand and salt?

    • filtration to collect the sand and distillation to collect the salt.
  8. Which phases does water go through if you use distillation to separate it from dissolved sugar?

    • from a liquid to a gas, and back to a liquid.
  9. Which statement is a good description of plastic?

    • It is a synthetic material that comes from natural resources.
  10. A student states that natural resources could be saved if people made everything they need in labs. What is the main problem with this idea?

    • Anything made in the lab requires natural resources to produce it.
  11. Which discovery would have the greatest impact on reducing the negative consequences of plastic?

    • the discovery of a new bacteria that consumes plastic waste.
  12. What is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch?

    • a place where plastic and other waste has collected in the Pacific Ocean.
