  • Q5
    A student notices that an inflated balloon gets larger when it is warmed by a lamp. Which BEST describes the mass of the balloon as a result of this change?
    The mass of the balloon stays the same because the gas inside the balloon still has the same mass after it warms up
    The mass of the balloon increases because the size of the balloon has increased.
    The mass of the balloon increases because the temperature of the balloon has increased.
    The mass of the balloon stays the same because warming decreases the mass enough to cancel out the effect of increasing the size.

  • Q10
    What is the difference between a chemical and a physical change?
    A chemical change does not produce a new substance, and a physical change DOES produce a new substance
    During a chemical change, the substance stays the same.
    A chemical change does not change the arrangement of atoms and a physical change DOES change the arrangement of atoms.
    A chemical change is irreversible and a physical change is reversible
