85. Reacts with Oxygen

86. Texture

www.njctl.org 7th grade PSI Matter and Its Properties

Answer Key 1) If you were to split one atom of Oxygen in half, you would no longer have Oxygen.

All atoms of Oxygen must have 8 Protons and, in order to be stable, must have 8 Electrons as well.

2) Model description: electrons with a negative charge surrounding the nucleus (neutral) which contains protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge).

3) They would be attracted to each other because opposite charges attract and an electron is negatively charged while a proton has a positive charge.

4) Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Every object and substance in the universe is considered matter.

5) Something that is not matter would be anything that is not tangible. This includes feelings, thoughts and emotions. Electricity and magnetic fields are actually matter (they are the 4th state of matter that we will not discuss in this unit called “plasma”).

6) A “pure substance” is an object that can’t be broken down any further without being changed into something new.

7) Neutrons 8) Electron Shell 9)

a. V b. W c. M d. M e. W f. V g. V h. V i. V j. W k. W l. M m. MW n. V

10) Justification- Weight depends on the size of the planet. The bigger the planet, the more your weight.

11) Since the object is hollow, fill it with a liquid. A liquid does not have a definite shape and will therefore fill up the entire object. Next, pour the water into a graduated

www.njctl.org 7th grade PSI Matter and Its Properties

cylinder and measure the amount of water in the graduated cylinder. Since the object is larger than a graduated cylinder, you will have to repeat this process until all the water in the object has been emptied out. Then you will have to add up all the measurements from the graduated cylinder to get the total volume of the object.

12) There are 10,000 grams in 10 kg; because there are 1000 grams in 1 kg 13) Mass = 10 kg; Weight = 10 lbs; Mass stays the same since it measures the amount

of “stuff” in an object. The amount of stuff won’t change even if an object changes locations. The weight is 1/6 less on the moon than on Earth due to the moon’s smaller size. Weight depends on location, specifically the gravitational field.

14) Volume = 467.5 cm3 (10cm x 8.5cm x 5.5cm) 15) 22 mL (72mL-50mL) 16) The statement is incorrect because the wrong unit of measurement is used with the

unit kilogram. Correct: The apple has a mass of 1 kilogram OR The apple weights 1 Newton.

17) He used common characteristics of the elements to sort them into groups. He then

noticed that there was a pattern in their atomic weights. 18) Mg 19) Carbon 20) Period 1 21) Group 16 22) For a and b, elements with similar characteristics will be those that are located in the

same group: a. Fluorine – Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine b. Oxygen – Sulfur, Selenium, Tellurium and Polonium

23) The modern Periodic Table of Elements is arranged according to Atomic Number (the number of protons in one atom)

24) a. Atomic # = 2 b. Element Symbol = He c. Atomic Mass = 4 d. Number of Protons = 2 e. Period = 1 f. Group = 18 g. Number of Electrons in Outer Shell = 2 (There are 2 Protons, therefore there are

only 2 Electrons. Every other element in Group 18 has 8 Outer Electrons) 25) 52 Protons 26) Terbium 27) Iodine; Iodine has an atomic number of 53 and Nickel has an atomic number of 28.

This means that Iodine has 53 protons and Nickel has 28. 28) Tungsten 29) Period 5 30) Group 18 31) Same as for #24

a. Potassium – Hydrogen, Lithium, Sodium, Rubidium, Caesium and Francium b. Krypton – Helium, Neon, Argon, Xenon and Radon

www.njctl.org 7th grade PSI Matter and Its Properties

c. Strontium – Beryllium, Magnesium, Calcium, Barium and Radium d. Gold – Copper and Silver

32) a. Sample Student Response Color- both alcohol and water are clear Hardness/texture- both alcohol and water are fluid liquids at room temperature State- both alcohol and water are fluid liquids at room temperature and the substance was described as being liquid b. Sample Student Response Odor- alcohol has a strong, distinct odor while water is odorless. Test for this physical property by smelling each substance safely. Boiling point- isopropyl alcohol has a lower boiling point than water. Test for this physical property by boiling both substances and measuring the temperature at which it boils.

33) Sample Student Response: Mass- A tent should have a light mass so it is easy to carry and pack up. Color- The color is important because if you are using it during the day, you would want the color to be light so it will not absorb a lot of sunlight and get hot inside the tent. Texture/material- The texture/material of the tent should be considered to keep out bugs, rain and sun.

34)

The differences in the size of the salt and pepper compared to the sand pieces could be used to separate the sand from the salt and pepper. The mixture could be sifted through a fine mesh to isolate the sand.

The fact that salt is soluble in water could be used to further separate the mixture. Pour the remaining salt and pepper in a cup of water and stir until the salt dissolves. Then pour the salt/pepper/water mixture through a coffee filter. This will isolate the pepper. Let the salt water sit out so the water evaporates, leaving the salt.

35) a. The high conductivity of metal in a cooking pot will help transfer the energy from the heat source (such as a stove top) to the food in the pot. b. Metal power lines will conduct electricity well. c. Metal’s magnetic physical property is useful for a refrigerator door because it will

allow you to attach magnets. 36) By testing the following physical properties, one can detect the difference between

metals and nonmetlas: Heat conductivity- metals transfer heat easily while nonmetals do not Electric conductivity- metals conduct electricity well while nonmetals do not. Hardness- metals are very hard and will not break, yet are malleable. Nonmetals will break easily. Shininess- Metals are shiny, while non-metals are dull.

45) No, you could have two different elements with the same mass but there would clearly be other physical properties associated with each that would be different such as the density, color, etc. You need more than one physical property to identify an element.

46) a. Iridium- it has the largest density. Density is a measure of how closely packed

particles are to one another. b. Hydrogen- it has the smallest density. The lower the density, the less closely

particles are packed. 47)

a. Manganese; Calculate the volume of each to determine which takes up more space. Manganese volume = 0.40 g/cm3, Nickel volume = 0.33 g/cm3.

b. Both samples would sink in water since their densities are greater than the density of water

48) D= 19.32 g/mL, M= 39.5 g therefore V=2.044 mL. The new water level will be 50mL + 2.044 mL = 52.044mL

49) D = 0.85 g/cm3 50) V = 250 mL 51) M = 108 g 52) D = 1.1 g/cm3; the wood would sink because it has a greater density than water. 53) The metal is a sample of Copper (8.86 g/mL) 54) M = 179 g 55) V = 90.4 cm3 56) Sample Student Response Solid: The glass holding the root beer- It has a definite shape and takes up a definite

amount of space. It would not compress under pressure. It is amorphous because the particles are not arranged in a regular pattern and does not have a distinct melting point.

Liquid: The root beer- It takes the shape of the glass but has a definite volume.

Particles flow past each other making the root beer fluid. Gas: The carbon dioxide gas bubbles of the root beer- It expanded out of the glass

and doesn’t have a definite shape or volume. 57) Sample Student Response

Solid: The outside of the balloon- Even though it is flexible, it is a solid because it has a definite volume and shape (once deflated or blown up). It is amorphous because the particles are not arranged in a regular pattern and likely does not have a distinct melting point because it is made of different materials. Liquid: Water in the lake below- It takes the shape of the ground holding it, but has a definite volume. Particles in the water easily flow past each other.

www.njctl.org 7th grade PSI Matter and Its Properties

Gas: The hot air in the balloon- It expands to fill up the shape of the balloon and therefore does not have a definite shape or definite volume. If the balloon fabric were removed, the hot air would escape and expand out everywhere as the particles in a gas are not very attracted to each other.

58) Sample Student Solid: The ice surrounding the lake- The ice has a definite volume and fixed shape. It is a crystalline solid as the particles are arranged in a regular pattern and ice has a fixed melting point. Liquid: Water in the in the lake- It takes the shape of the ground holding it, but has a definite volume. Particles in the water easily flow past each other making it a fluid. Gas: The atmospheric gas (air)- The air expands and does not have a definite shape or definite volume.

59) Sample Student Response Solid: The rocks surrounding the geyser- These rocks take up a fixed amount of space and have a definite shape and volume. It is hard to say if the rocks are amorphous or crystalline because we don’t know what minerals compose the rocks. Liquid: Water shooting out of the geyser- It has a fixed volume but no definite shape. As it shoots out of the geyser, its shape will be determined by whatever solid it comes in contact with. For example, as it hits the ground it will form small puddles due to the shape of the ground. Particles in the water easily flow past each other making this a fluid. Gas: The hot steam from the geyser- This steam does not have a definite shape or volume but instead expands up and out.

60) Any arrow that points up from a surface of water to the sky is acceptable; the water at these locations is being heated by the sun which adds thermal energy to the water causing the phase change from liquid to gas in the atmosphere

61) Any arrow in the atmosphere/clouds (up or down); at these locations water vapor has reached higher altitudes where it is cooler thus removing thermal energy causing the phase change from water vapor to liquid.

62) Any location where there is ice; at these locations, liquid precipitation that condensed out from the clouds may freeze high up in the mountains where it is cold and thermal energy is lost.

63) Boiling may occur at the location of the volcano. Here, there may be enough thermal energy deep below Earth’s surface to turn the liquid in the volcano to a gaseous state.

64) a. Any locations where evaporation occurs. Gases have particles that have energy and thus move fast causing them to spread out if not contained. b. Any locations where there is ice indicating freezing. As water freezes, thermal energy is lost and the result is low energy particles move more slowly, eventually just vibrating in position.

65) Because water simply changes states. 66) Since melting and freezing are opposites of each other, it takes the same amount of

thermal energy to go from solid to liquid as it does to go from liquid to solid. In one case thermal energy is added and in the other it is removed, however it is the same amount.

67) Evaporation occurs at the surface of a liquid and boiling occurs below the surface of a liquid.

68) You can tell that water is boiling when water vapor bubbles rise to the surface of the water and escape. You can tell that water has evaporated when you see that the amount of water has lessened (such as in a puddle on the road).

only observe chemical properties by destroying the substance or changing it into something new (such as setting it on fire).

77) The most reactive are on the left side of the Periodic Table. The least reactive are on the right side of the Periodic Table.

78) P; When finding the density, you do not destroy the substance, you only measure it. 79) C; Corroding means to break down. If a substance breaks down, the original

substance is destroyed and it has changed into something new. 80) P; By smelling an object, you do not destroy it. 81) P; When a substance changes state, it may look different but it is still the same

substance. For example, when ice melts, it is still water. When liquid water boils, it remains water.

82) C; If a substance reacts with acid, the original substance is destroyed. 83) P; When you dissolve a substance in another (for example, stirring sugar into

water), it does not just disappear. It keeps its same physical and chemical properties. It is not destroyed.

84) C; If a flammable substance is lit on fire, it is destroyed. The ash left over is a new material.

85) C; The word “reacts” is a clue that the original object will be destroyed and it will become something new.

86) P; You can observe the texture of a substance without destroying it.
