Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
dry ice sublimating and becoming a gas
burning a marshmallow over a campfire
Solution: Step 1: Think about each change.
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. When dry ice gets warm, it changes state and becomes carbon dioxide gas. This change of state, from solid to gas, is called sublimation.
Dry ice becoming a gas is a physical change. A change of state does not form a different type of matter.
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.
Step 2: Look at each answer choice.
Both are only physical changes.
Dry ice sublimating is a physical change. But burning a marshmallow is not.
Both are chemical changes.
Burning a marshmallow is a chemical change. But dry ice sublimating is not.

Question: [QUESTION]What do these two changes have in common?
an antacid tablet reacting with water
a penny tarnishing

An antacid tablet reacting with water is a chemical change. When the tablet touches water, the type of matter in the tablet changes and carbon dioxide gas is released. This gas makes the water fizz.
Metal turning less shiny over time is called tarnishing. A penny tarnishing is a chemical change. When air touches the penny, the surface of the penny changes into a different type of matter. This matter makes the penny dull.
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.

Question: [QUESTION]Select the reptile below.
Solution: A koala is a mammal. It has fur and feeds its young milk.
A box turtle is a reptile. It has scaly, waterproof skin. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Based on this information, what is this plant's phenotype for the flower color trait?
Solution: The rose plant's genotype for the flower color gene is FF. The rose plant's genotype of FF has only F allelles. The F allele is for light yellow flowers. So, the rose plant's phenotype for the flower color trait must be light yellow flowers.
To check this answer, consider whether the rose plant's alleles are dominant or recessive. The allele for light yellow flowers (F) is dominant over the allele for dark yellow flowers (f). This means F is a dominant allele, and f is a recessive allele.
The rose plant's genotype of FF has two dominant alleles. An organism with at least one dominant allele for a gene will have the dominant allele's version of the trait. So, the rose plant's phenotype for the flower color trait must be light yellow flowers. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which is smoother?
Solution: Smooth is a property. A smooth material is not rough or bumpy.
Look at each picture, one at a time. Imagine touching the material shown in each picture.
Of the choices, the plastic bag is smoother. If you touch a plastic bag, it will not feel rough. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Select the organism in the same species as the black howler.
Solution: A black howler's scientific name is Alouatta caraya.
Ovis orientalis does not have the same scientific name as a black howler. So, Alouatta caraya and Ovis orientalis are not in the same species.
Lontra canadensis does not have the same scientific name as a black howler. So, Alouatta caraya and Lontra canadensis are not in the same species.
Alouatta caraya has the same scientific name as a black howler. So, these organisms are in the same species. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Is the following statement about our solar system true or false?
There are twice as many ice planets as rocky planets.
Solution: The table tells you that there are two ice planets and four rocky planets. So, there are half as many ice planets as rocky planets. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Is bronze a mineral?
Solution: Bronze does not have all the properties of a mineral. So, bronze is not a mineral. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Does the sentence use a simile or a metaphor?
On that winter morning, Linda's hands were as cold as ice.
Solution: On that winter morning, Linda's hands were as cold as ice.
The words hands and ice are compared using the word as. So, the sentence uses a simile. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which i in row B?
Solution: The park is in row B. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which cookie has less thermal energy?
Solution: The two cookies are made of the same material and have the same mass. So, the colder cookie has less thermal energy. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Select the solid.
Solution: Coffee is a liquid. A liquid takes the shape of any container it is in. If you pour coffee into a different container, the coffee will take the shape of that container. But the coffee will still take up the same amount of space.
The air inside a tire is a gas. A gas expands to fill a space. The air in a tire expands to fill all the space inside the tire. If air leaks out, it will expand into the space around the tire.
The air inside a bubble is a gas. A gas expands to fill a space. The air inside a bubble fills all the space in the bubble. If the bubble pops, the air will expand to fill a much larger space.
An eraser is a solid. You can bend an eraser. But it will still have a size and shape of its own. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Using only these supplies, which question can Jonathan investigate with an experiment?
Solution: | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Which object has more thermal energy?
Solution: The two blocks of copper have the same mass but different temperatures. Since the 260°F block is hotter than the 185°F block, it has more thermal energy. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Why might a person have a limb amputated?
Solution: | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]What is the capital of New York?
Solution: Albany is the capital of New York. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]What does the verbal irony in this text suggest?
"Sleeping through the rooster's crowing was no problem," Raymond joked with a yawn.
Solution: The text uses verbal irony, which involves saying one thing but implying something very different.
Sleeping through the rooster's crowing was no problem ironically suggests that Raymond slept poorly. Raymond was tired, so the rooster's crowing was clearly a problem. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Select the fish below.
Solution: A salmon is a fish. It lives underwater. It has fins, not limbs.
A bison is a mammal. It has fur and feeds its young milk. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]How long is an ice skate?
Solution: The best estimate for the length of an ice skate is 14 inches.
14 feet, 14 yards, and 14 miles are all too long. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
Question: [QUESTION]Compare the average kinetic energies of the particles in each sample. Which sample has the higher temperature?
Solution: The particles in both samples have the same average speed, but each particle in sample B has more mass than each particle in sample A. So, the particles in sample B have a higher average kinetic energy than the particles in sample A.
Because the particles in sample B have the higher average kinetic energy, sample B must have the higher temperature. | TheMrguiller/ScienceQA |
