Happy early dismissal!
As you know, we have our Studying Materials Scientifically (SMS) test on Thursday, Dec. 19.
Most of you got part 1 of your Review Sheet on Friday, and some got it on Monday.  You got the next part (Volume Study Guide) yesterday and we've gone over it in class today.

(Period 2 Extra Credit - you didn't get it yet, but you can find it posted on yesterday's blog and answer it by Wednesday for Extra Credit)
 Period 1 - Correct Volume Study Guide answer to question 6 is: 6, 1, 5, 3, 2, 4.
Other periods: check out the slide shows at the top of my Links list!!! Good learning tools!
Below is another part of your SMS Study Guide.  Tomorrow, please bring in the written answers to these questions:


1.     If you have two bars of silver colored metal of the same volume, how could you tell which one was iron and which was aluminum? (choose one)
a.    Aluminum will feel heavier
b.    Iron will react in hot sulfuric acid
c.    Iron will feel heavier
d.    Iron will feel lighter

2.    Which of the following is evidence that one substance is chemically reacting with another?  When the substance(s):

a.    Gives off light, smoke, or odor;
b.    Gets hotter or colder;
c.    Gives off bubbles, gas, or a precipitate (causes solids to fall to the bottom);
d.    When the properties of the substances become different.
e.    All of the above.







    
READ THIS: Look at the measurements for this rectangular cube: (shown in text here in case they don't show up on the blog: L = 5 cm, W =3cm, H = 4 cm, mass = 180g.

3.    Will this cube float or sink in water (density of water = 1 g/cm3)? Explain why. (Hint: if you can’t answer it, answer the next 3 questions, then come back to this).


4.    What is the volume of this cube? Remember: V = L x W x H (choose one)
a.    23 cm
b.    60 cm2
c.    60 cm3
d.    180 g

5.    What is the mass of this cube?  (choose one)
a.    23 g
b.    60 g
c.    60 cm3
d.    180 g

6.    What is the density of this cube? Remember: D = m/v  (choose one)
a)    .33 g/cm3
b)    3 g/cm3
c)    180 g/cm3
d)    15 g/cm3
