D = mass / volume

Question 15

Which property describes why an object floats?

Answer 15

Buoyancy

Question 16

Know when an object will float in water and when it will sink in water

Answer 16

It will float when it is less dense than water or surface tension
It will sink when it is more dense than water or if surface tension is broken

Question 17

Transparent

Answer 17

You can see through it (glass, air, or water)

Question 18

Translucent

Answer 18

There is some light, but it is blurry (frosted glass, shower door)

Question 19

Opaque

Answer 19

No light (hard plastic, metal, or wood)

Question 20

Conduction

Answer 20

The passing of heat through an object; the object stays the same

Question 21

Alkali

Answer 21

Very reactive; far left column of periodic table

Question 22

Alkaline

Answer 22

Mild reaction; to the right of alkali on the periodic table

Question 23

Be able to explain why the temperature at which a substance boils or freezes is classified as a physical property and not a chemical property.

Answer 23

It doesn’t mix with anything. It just changes its physical property

Question 24

Be able to explain the difference between an alkali metal and an alkaline earth metal

Answer 24

Alkali is very reactive and is on the far left column of the periodic table
alkaline has a very mild reaction and it is just to the right of the alkali on the Periodic table

Question 25

If given a picture of an object in a graduated cylinder, be able to tell its volume

Answer 25

You can tell by how much water is displaced so simply subtract the old volume of water from the new volume of water

Question 26

When we talk about light transmission what kind of things are we talking about

Answer 26

Transparent, translucent, and opaque
