- Q1A student mixes two clear liquids. After a few minutes, a white powder can be seen settling at the bottom of the test tube. From these observations the student can conclude that the two clear liquids–have been converted to the gaseous state.have been stored too long and are no longer good.were pure substances before they were mixed.have combined to form a new substance.30s8.5.E: Matter and Energy
- Q2This table shows the chemical formulas for three substances that contain some of the following elements: hydrogen (H), chlorine (Cl), carbon (C), calcium (Ca), and oxygen (O). Which conclusion is supported by the information in the table?Substance Y has more carbon atoms than substance Z.Substance X has fewer atoms of hydrogen than substance Y.Substance Z has fewer calcium atoms than substance X.Substance X has more atoms of chlorine than substance Y.30s8.5.D: Matter and Energy

- Q13A silver ring reacts with compounds containing sulfur in the air to form silver sulfide, a black substance that makes up the tarnish on the surface of silver objects. To remove the tarnish from the ring, students placed it in a pan lined with aluminum foil and added hot water. Baking soda was added to the hot water and stirred. Students made observations about the process. Which observation of this process provides evidence of a chemical reaction?The pan was lined with aluminum foil.The hot water cooled.Hot water heated the aluminum foil.The liquid solution changed color.30s8.5.E: Matter and Energy
