- Q3An ice cube is put into a heated pan. What will MOST LIKELY happen to the molecules in the ice as the ice is heated?The molecules will begin to condense in the air.The molecules will begin to increase in density. 'The molecules will begin to move slower.The molecules will begin to move faster.60s8.P.1.3
- Q4Which BEST explains why the total mass of the product(s) would be less than the total weight of the reactant(s) after a chemical reaction?physical change occurred.Precipitates were created in the new solution.Atoms involved in the reaction lost mass.Gases were released to the atmosphere.60s8.P.1.4
- Q5What happens to water molecules during the boiling process?They move faster and remain close together as they absorb heat.They move more slowly but move farther apart as they lose heat.They move faster and move farther apart as they absorb heat.They move faster and move farther apart as they lose heat.60s8.P.1.3

- Q7If a chemical reaction such as photosynthesis begins with 6 atoms of carbon (C), how many atoms of carbon (C) should be in the products?6 atoms of carbon (C)3 atoms of carbon (C)12 atoms of carbon (C)2 atoms of carbon (C)60s8.P.1.4
- Q8The table shows properties of several elements. Which element would Element X MOST LIKELY be grouped with on the periodic table?potassiumcalciumchlorinecopper60s8.P.1.2
- Q9Which shows one example of a physical change and one example of a chemical change?dissolving powder and shredding paperrusting iron and baking a cakefreezing water and burning coalboiling water and melting wax60s8.P.1.3
- Q10How does a balanced chemical equation satisfy the Law of Conservation of Mass?During a chemical reaction, matter is destroyed.During a chemical reaction, one or more new substances are formed.During a chemical reaction, the total number of atoms increases.During a chemical reaction, the total amount of matter stays the same.60s8.P.1.4
