Question 1

Question
W reacts with X in the equation below. \[W+X → Y+Z\]According to the law of conservation of mass, how many grams of W must react completely with 225 grams of X to result in 375 grams as the product?
Answer
  • 150 g
  • 225 g
  • 375 g
  • 600 g

Question 2

Question

Answer
  • The foot pushes forward on the sidewalk; the sidewalk does not push forward on the foot.
  • The foot pushes forward on the sidewalk; the sidewalk pushes forward on the foot.
  • The foot pushes backward on the sidewalk; the sidewalk pushes forward on the foot.
  • The foot pushes backward on the sidewalk; the sidewalk pushes backward on the foot.

Question 8

Question
In an isotope, what changes?
Answer
  • the number of neutrons
  • the number of protons
  • the number of electrons

Question 9

Question
In a ski lift, someone is taken up a ski hill on a chair attached to a wire, than skis down the hill. Which statement best describes the energy change taking place?
Answer
  • The skier loses kinetic energy as they are lifted up the slope aand lose potential energy as they ski down the slope.
  • The skier gains potantial energy as they are lifted up the slope and maintains the same potential energy as they ski down the slope.
  • The skier gains potantial energy as they are lifted up the slope and loses potential energy as they ski down the slope.
  • The skier gains potantial energy as they are lifted up the slope and gain both potential and kinetic energy as they ski down the slope.

  • The mass can't be determined.
  • The volume of the metal is less than the volume of the ring.
  • The volume of the ring is less than the volume of the metal.
  • The mass of the metal is less than the mass of the ring.
  • The mass of the ring is less than the mass of the metal.
