Question: [QUESTION]Complete the statement. Silver is (). Solution: You can tell whether silver is an elementary substance or a compound by counting the number of symbols in its chemical formula. A symbol contains either one capital letter or a capital letter followed by one or two lowercase letters. The chemical formula for silver is Ag. This formula contains one symbol: Ag. So, the formula tells you that silver is made of one chemical element. Substances made of only one chemical element are elementary substances. So, silver is an elementary substance.

Question: [QUESTION]Which statement is true about the average monthly precipitation in Charlotte? Solution: To describe the average precipitation trends in Charlotte, look at the graph. Choice "Jan" is incorrect. Choice "January is the month with the highest average precipitation." is incorrect. Several other months have a slightly higher average precipitation than January. Choice "Charlotte has a rainy season and a dry season." is incorrect. The average monthly precipitation does not change much throughout the year. Every month has some rain, and there is no dry season. So, Charlotte does not have a rainy season and a dry season. Choice "Precipitation does not change much from month to month." is incorrect. The average monthly precipitation changes only slightly throughout the year.

Question: [QUESTION]Complete the text to describe the diagram. Solute particles moved in both directions across the permeable membrane. But more solute particles moved across the membrane (). When there was an equal concentration on both sides, the particles reached equilibrium. Solution: Look at the diagram again. It shows you how the solution changed during the process of diffusion. Before the solute particles reached equilibrium, there were 5 solute particles on the left side of the membrane and 3 solute particles on the right side of the membrane. When the solute particles reached equilibrium, there were 4 solute particles on each side of the membrane. There was 1 more solute particle on the right side of the membrane than before. So, for the solute particles to reach equilibrium, more solute particles must have moved across the membrane to the right than to the left.

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common? burning a marshmallow over a campfire rust forming on a bicycle frame Solution: Step 1: Think about each change. Burning a marshmallow is a chemical change. The heat from the fire causes the type of matter in the marshmallow to change. The marshmallow becomes black and crispy. Rust forming on a bicycle frame is a chemical change. Oxygen in the air reacts with iron in the bicycle frame. The outside of the frame turns into a different type of matter called rust. Rust is reddish-brown and falls apart easily. Step 2: Look at each answer choice. Both are only physical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. They are not physical changes. Both are chemical changes. Both changes are chemical changes. The type of matter before and after each change is different. Both are caused by heating. Burning is caused by heating. But rust forming on a bicycle frame is not. Both are caused by cooling. Neither change is caused by cooling.

Question: [QUESTION]Think about the magnetic force between the magnets in each pair. Which of the following statements is true? Solution: The magnets in Pair 2 attract. The magnets in Pair 1 repel. But whether the magnets attract or repel affects only the direction of the magnetic force. It does not affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Magnet sizes affect the magnitude of the magnetic force. Imagine magnets that are the same shape and made of the same material. The smaller the magnets, the smaller the magnitude of the magnetic force between them. Magnet A is the same size in both pairs. But Magnet B is smaller in Pair 1 than in Pair 2. So, the magnitude of the magnetic force is smaller in Pair 1 than in Pair 2.

Question: [QUESTION]Complete the sentence. The Sunda Trench formed at a () boundary. Solution: To figure out what type of plate boundary formed the Sunda Trench, you need to know how the tectonic plates interacted. To find this out, read the passage carefully. The Sunda Trench is a deep-sea trench that formed as the Indo-Australian Plate collided with the Sunda Plate. Movement at this plate boundary can cause earthquakes and devastating tsunamis. A tsunami is a series of giant waves that may form when oceanic crust is suddenly lifted by an earthquake. In December 2004, an earthquake and the resulting tsunami affected millions of people in countries surrounding the Indian Ocean. The underlined part of the passage explains that the Sunda Trench formed as the two plates moved toward each other. So, the Sunda Trench formed at a convergent boundary.

Question: [QUESTION]Select the elementary substance. Solution: Look at the chemical formula for each substance, and count the number of symbols in the formula. Then, decide if the substance is an elementary substance. The chemical formula for boron trifluoride contains two symbols: B for boron and F for fluorine.

So, boron trifluoride is a compound, not an elementary substance. The chemical formula for fluoromethane contains three symbols: C for carbon, H for hydrogen, and F for fluorine. So, fluoromethane is made of three chemical elements bonded together. Substances that are made of two or more chemical elements bonded together are compounds. So, fluoromethane is a compound, not an elementary substance. The chemical formula for xenon contains one symbol: Xe. So, xenon is made of one chemical element. Substances that are made of one chemical element are elementary substances. So, xenon is an elementary substance.
