- Q1All of the liquids in the jar are clear with a drop of food coloring in them to allow the layers to show. Which of the following would be a way to identify which layer is actually water?Shake to mix the liquids, let them settle, then label the bottom layer as water.Put additional food coloring in the jar and label the darkest layer as water.Put additional water in the jar and see which layer becomes deeper.Shake to mix the liquids, let them settle, and pick the top layer.120s
- Q2Which of the following statements is true?Water is less dense than oil.The plastic block is less dense than the grape and water.The grape is more dense than the syrup and less dense than the water.The cork is more dense than all of the liquids.120s
- Q3Students had 4 different clear liquids and added a drop of food coloring to each (each liquid had a different color added). After adding the food coloring, students poured all 4 liquids together and mixed them. Students allowed the liquids to settle and the above layers formed. How could the students determine which layer of liquid is water?Pour more water into the mixture, put the mixture in the freezer and see which layer freezes first.Pour more water into the mixture and see which layer becomes deeper.Pour more water into the mixture and see which layer settles at the top.Pour more water in the mixture and see which layer settles to the bottom.120s

- Q13Some students paint the inside of several boxes. They paint each box a different color. They observe that the inside of the box painted white looks brighter than the others. What is the most likely reason this box looks brighter?More light is reflected off white paintMore light is absorbed by white paintMore light passes through white paintMore light is refracted by white paint120s
