Questions:
1. What is the scientific method?
● The Scientific Method is a process used by scientists to study the world around them
and test if a statement is accurate
● Question
● Hypothesis
● Experiment
● Observe/collect data
● Form conclusion
● Communicate results
2. What sample questions are given that science can answer?
● Why do dogs and cats have hair?
● What is that?
3. How does science allow the world to “advance, evolve and grow?”
● Science allows the world to “advance, evolve and grow” because all scientific
advancements have been made on achievements of other scientists, and so on, so our
knowledge of the world can “evolve and grow.”
4. What is the difference between inductive and deductive reasoning?
● Deductive reasoning is starting with specific facts and information and coming up with a
theory, while inductive reasoning is applying a theory into certain areas

Questions:
1. Make some changes to the Lever.
2. What are the variables that you can change?
● Position of objects on each side
● Show mass labels, forces from object, and level of the Lever
● Measure of lever using ruler, Marks, or none
3. Conduct a simple experiment and discuss your basic results.
● Question: Will the Lever be balanced if you place the 10kg trash can on one side and the
two 5kg fire extinguishers on another side?
● Hypothesis: The Lever will be balanced if you place the trash can on an amount of
spaces from the fulcrum and the fire extinguishers on the same amount of spaces from
the fulcrum
● *Experiment*
● Results: The Lever was only balanced when you place the trash can 1 m away from the
fulcrum and the first fire extinguisher 0.5m away and the second 1.5m away from the
fulcrum
4. What were your observations?
● The two fire extinguishers were 1m apart
● The trash can was 1 m away from the fulcrum
● If you count in 0.5m intervals, the trash can is 2 intervals away from the fulcrum and the
fire extinguishers are 3 intervals away
● The weight of the trash can is double the weight of the fire extinguishers
● The trash can was 4 marks away from the fulcrum while the fire extinguishers were 4
marks away from each other
● The further an object goes away from the fulcrum, the more mass it has

Questions: Will a burnt candle, baking soda and vinegar, or just a oxygen preserve an
apple from oxidation?
1. Describe her basic experiment
Her experiment was inductive reasoning that focused on what would keep the apples
from browning the best, using a burnt candle, baking soda and vinegar, or just plain regular
oxygen
2. What are the variables?
● IV= Methods that will suck the oxygen away, thus decreasing oxidation of apples
● DV= Oxidation of Apples
3. Does she have Constants and a Control? Explain
She had Constants and a Control, her constants were to cover all the containers with
aluminum foil, a single slice of apple for each experiment, making sure the independent
variables did not affect the dependent variables, waiting for seven hours before examining, and
her Control was just a plain slice of apple left without any variables, so she could compare the
experimented results and the un-experimented results.
2. What were her results?
After seven hours, the apples weren’t as oxidized as she thought they would be, the
burnt candle had as much browning as the control, the baking soda and vinegar even had a bit
more browning than the control, and the control had a little browning along the edge, and along
the side of the cut on the other side.

Reading #1: S cientific Serves by Chris Shayer
Jim, Jody, and Juan, all sixth graders, love to play tennis and are interested in
forming an interscholastic tennis team. To do so, they decide to hold tennis practice
sessions during
Period H every day. Mr. M, Mr. P, and Mr. S agree to hold tryouts at the end of
October. Seeing as how this was their idea, Jim, Jody, and Juan want to make sure
that they will make the team. To ensure their placement on the team, they test to
see which brand of tennis ball helps produce the fastest serve. Jim, Jody, and Juan
believe that if they determine the ball that produces the fastest serve, they will
definitely make the tennis team because they will have an advantage over the other
players. Before completing the experiment, they all think that brand X tennis balls
will bounce the highest because they are the hardest to squeeze. Using brand X, Y,
and Z tennis balls, they decide to drop each ball from 15 meters above the ground
onto a clay tennis court. They measure the height that each ball bounces and record
this value in their data table. Jim, Jody, and Juan complete five trials for each tennis
ball and record an average height in their data table.
What is the independent variable in the experiment?
Brand of tennis balls
What is the dependent variable in the experiment?
Height each brand of tennis ball bounces
According to the passage, what was their hypothesis?
Their hypothesis was that the brand X tennis balls will bounce the highest because
they are the hardest to squeeze
Name three constants involved in the experiment.
1. Dropping each brand tennis ball at 15m above ground
2. Using a clay tennis court
3. Completing five trials for each tennis ball
Reading #2: Perfect Pumpkins by Dina Rossi
Alberta, Megan, and Tom are trying to grow the largest pumpkin for the state fair.
They decide to use the greenhouse behind Mr. K’s room. They want to test which
type of soil is best suited for growing pumpkins. Alberta, Megan, and Tom decide
that if they can determine which type of soil is best suited to grow pumpkins, they
will win the blue ribbon. Before completing the tests, they all think that potting soil
will work the best because it contains plenty of organic material, which helps the soil
hold water. They plant pumpkin seeds in regular dirt dug from behind the school,
sandy soil found at Megan’s house, and store-bought potting soil. They fill three clay
pots with the regular dirt and label them Pot A, Pot B, and Pot C. They also fill three
clay pots with the sandy soil and label them Pot A, Pot B, and Pot C. Finally, they fill
three clay pots with the potting soil and label them Pot A, Pot B, and Pot C. In each
pot, they plant the same species of pumpkin seed, water them with the same
amount of water, and place them in the greenhouse so that they all get the same
amount of sunlight. After the pumpkins grow, they measure how much each
pumpkin weighs from each type of soil and record their findings.
What is the independent variable in this experiment?
Type of soil used for each pot
What is the dependent variable in the experiment?
Weight of each pumpkin grown from different soil
What was the hypothesis that Alberta, Megan, and Tom came up with in their
experiment?
Their hypothesis was that potting soil would work the best for growing pumpkin
seeds because it has plenty of organic material, which will help retain water
What are three constants in this experiment?
1. Same species of pumpkin planted in the soils
2. Watering with same amount of water
3. Placing all the pumpkins in greenhouse with same amount of sunlight
Reading #3: Soil Absorption b y Steve Matyczyk
Timmy, Tommy, and Tina want to plant a garden in the spring at their middle school.
They have written a letter to Mr. B asking permission to use the land around the
school for their garden. Mr. B. has agreed, but they can only use one area of the
property for their garden. Before picking a spot, Tina, Tommy, and Timmy walk
around the school to find the perfect location for the garden. Tina likes the spot
behind the tennis courts, Tommy likes the spot behind the cafeteria, and Timmy
wants the garden in the front of the school. All three of these areas are flat and
receive the same amount of sunlight. Tina remembers working in the summer on her
grandparents’ farm and her grandfather always saying, “To have a good crop you
need good soil that holds lots of water.” To be fair to all, they agree to take samples
of the soil at each spot and to perform an absorbency test to see which soil holds
the most water. After taking the soil samples, they find that the front of the school
has very sandy soil, the area around the tennis courts is made up of a clay-based
soil, and the area behind the school consists of a soil that contains decomposed
organic material from leaves, twigs, and grass clippings. After looking at the
different types of soils, they all think that the clay-based soil will hold the most water
and that the area behind the tennis courts will be the best place for the garden. To
test for the absorbency of the water, they place 50 g of each soil into a funnel with
filter paper. Underneath the funnel is a beaker that will catch the water that seeps
through the soil. Next, they pour 100 mL of water into the soil and record the amount
of water filtered and absorbed. They test each soil five times to be sure that their
results are accurate.
1. What is the independent variable in this experiment?
Type of soil
2. What is the dependent variable in the experiment?
Amount of water that each soil absorbs
3. What was the hypothesis that Timmy, Tommy, and Tina came up with in their
experiment?
Their hypothesis was that the clay-based soil would hold the most water and that
the tennis court will be the best place for the garden
4. What are three constants in this experiment?
1. 50 g of each soil in the soil absorbency test
2. Test absorbency of each soil five times
3. Pour 100 mL of water into the soil
Reading #4: Streambed Erosion by Shawn Pelletier
“I feel that the sand will erode the least,” stated Jim. Jim and Sally were having a
discussion about which type of sediment that made up the bed of Wakooie Stream
would erode the least over time. “I think the small rocks at the bottom of the stream
will erode the least because they are heavier than the sand,” said Sally. “The sand is
going to erode the least because it is packed at the bottom of the stream, giving the
sand particles extra strength to stay in place. I’m correct and you are wrong!” said
Jim. Jim and Sally decided to investigate which type of particle at the bottom of
Wakooie Stream would erode the least. Jim and Sally developed a test to see who
was right. Jim and Sally took three different sediments from the streambed: sand
particles, small rock particles, and large rock particles. They collected 100 mL of
each sediment. Next, Jim and Sally took a 4-foot plastic container with sides and
propped one side of the container onto three blocks of wood that measured 5
inches in height. This created a ramp. Seven inches from the top of the ramp, Sally
drew a square box. The square box that Sally drew was where they would place the
sediment during each trial. Meanwhile, Jim measured 1,000 mL of tap water. Jim and
Sally did the experiment once the materials were collected. First they placed the 100
mL of sand sediment in the square that was drawn by Sally. Then they poured the
1,000 mL of tap water from the top of the container, allowing the tap water to run
into the sediment as it traveled downhill. The water was acting like the flow of a
stream in this investigation. When the water came to a stop at the bottom of the
container, Sally and Jim placed the soil that did not wash away (the soil remaining in
the square Sally drew) into a 100 mL beaker and measured how much soil had been
eroded away. Each type of sediment was tested three times in this manner. After
each trial was conducted, Jim and Sally found the average for how much soil
eroded away and discovered which sediment eroded the least and which sediment
eroded the most.
1. What was Jim’s hypothesis in the experiment?
Jim’s hypothesis was that sand eroded away the least because it is compressed at
the bottom of the stream, giving it more strength and therefore making it less
susceptible to eroding away
2. What is the independent variable?
Type of sediment from Wakooie Stream
3. What is the dependent variable?
Amount of sediment that eroded away over time
4. Name three constants in the experiment.
1. 100 mL of each sediment into the square box
2. 1,000 mL of water poured down the ramp into the square box
3. Testing experiment 3 times

Scientific Method Quiz
Directions: Read the following description of an experiment and complete the
components of the scientific method.
Experiment:
Option #1: Patrick believed that fish would become smarter and complete a maze
faster if they ate food that was placed in a microwave first. He had 100 fish that he
could use for the experiment. He evaluated their intelligence based on their time to
complete the maze.
Option #2: Mr. Smithers believed that Caffeine may make people more alert. Mr.
Smithers tested 100 people by using their scores in the same video game. Devin had
3 different brands of drinks with 10 g, 20 g, and 30 g of caffeine respectively. He
measured their scores on a video game that had a range of 0-1000 points. Some of
the players were not given caffeine drinks. on the game
*Help Mr. Smithers design an effective experiment and write a conclusion that
analyzes your results.

Conclusion:
Purpose, Hypothesis, Description, Data or evidence, Improvements, Conclusion
In conclusion, the purpose of this experiment was to test if the amount of caffeine will
make people more alert. Our hypothesis was, the more caffeine you drank, the more alert
you were. We can test this using a video game, which specifically stimulates a person’s
alertness, and then read their resulting score, and the higher it is, the more alert the player
was. As you can see from the data table and graph, people who drank a beverage
containing 20g of caffeine did the best, while people who drank a beverage with 30g of
caffeine did the worst. This heavily contrasted against our original hypothesis because it
turned out, more caffeine does make you more alert in the beginning, but if you take too
much, you can become less alert and end up being lethargic. Some improvements we
could’ve made was to make sure that some of the testers did not have any background
information or ability at the game, because it might affect the outcome of the experiment if
more people were better at the game than others. To sum up, more caffeine does make you
more alert, but a strong amount eventually wears off and makes you less alert than people
who don’t take it in the first place.
Cassini Spacecraft Article Summary
“Back to saturn? Five Missions proposed to
follow Cassini”
Ever since the farewell of NASA’s famous spacecraft Cassini, it has solved
unknown mysteries, taking captivating pictures of Saturn’s rings and moons, and
most importantly, bringing back a series of new questions. In a latest round of
scientific competition called New Frontiers, which tries to obtain ideas for future
missions from scientists and engineers, each have their own destination. But it’s clear
that in order to figure out our unanswered, we need to explore more of the solar
system.

Density
The density of an object depends on its mass and volume
Mass = Amount of matter in the object
Volume = Amount of space that object takes up in 3D
How does Density relate to Plate Tectonics?
Plate Tectonics are the motions of the Earth’s tectonic plates, that can have a
large impact on Earth in forming mountains.
Density relates to Plate Tectonics because the tectonic plates rely on the
varying densities in order to move. According to I ntroduction to Geological Sciences
Week 9, “ In the mantle, density differences are a function of variations in
temperature. Warm areas expand and become less dense (more buoyant) than
their surroundings and rise. Cold areas are
more dense and thus sink. This density-driven
rising and sinking is a process of convection.”
Without the process of convection, Earth’s
tectonic plates would not move, therefore
completely stop the movement of Plate
Tectonics.
Plate Tectonics relate to the metal
density experiment because they depend on
density to function. Without the variations in
temperature that act like density differences,
convection currents would not form and therefore the process of Plate Tectonics
would not exist. The same holds true for the metal density experiment. There was no
virtual way to find out what metal each object was because you didn’t know
anything about it except for its density. Only through comparison of densities could
you find out the answer. To conclude, both Plate Tectonics and the metal density
experiment made use of density.

b. D = 48.3 g/34.5 cm3
c. D = 1.4 g/cm3
Density Reflection
The purpose of the experiment was to find out what the unknown set of metals were
by calculating the density of the samples and comparing them to known values for the
metals. The hypothesis was: ‘if density is known then unknown metals can be correctly
identified because every metal has its own density.’ Because in order to to find density, you
need to know the mass and volume, so we measured the mass on a scale and then used the
water-displacement method to find the volume, and from there on calculated the density.
We then conducted the same experiment following the same procedure the next day with
the other set of metals. As you can see from our data, without knowing the density of an
object, it is impossible to find out which metal is which, because every object has its own
density, and that is the only information you know about the objects. In the end, by finding
the density of every metal and comparing it to the official density found online, we were
able to discover what the unknown metals were.
Phase Changes of Water Activity
Critical Thinking Questions:
1. When did the temperatures stay the same on the graph? Why did the temperatures stay
the same at 2 points during the lab?
The temperature stayed the same during the first and last section of the graph, and this is
because it takes extra joules to convert one matter into a different one, which is why we
need to use formulas such as Heat of Fusion and Heat of Vaporization
2. How would the graph be different if we tried this experiment with Gold? Explain:
The graph would be different because since the density of Gold would differ from water, it
takes a different amount of joules needed to change the states of gold.
3. What is the role of energy during the phase changes?
The role of energy during phase changes is to change the molecules inside an element,
either by adding heat or cooling, which creates a new state of matter
4. Describe the motion of the molecules
throughout the experiment. Find
diagrams that show the motion.
When a substance starts out solid, the
molecules are tight, compact, and move
only slightly. But as more energy is
added, the molecules start moving around
more and this breaks the solid structure, and thus turns into a liquid state, and as even
more energy is increased, the molecules separate completely and float around each other.
5. How does the Average Kinetic Energy change throughout the experiment? (Be specific)
The average kinetic energy slowly increases throughout each state of matter, changing the
substance’s arrange of molecules

Questions:
1. How are the substances different?
a. The substances are different because because they are made out of
contrasting molecular structures
2. What is the difference between Heat and Temperature?
a. Heat is the amount of energy that flows from one object to another, and
temperature is the degree or intensity of heat of an object
3. Place your Heat Energy results in Scientific Notation
a. Gold(2.4505 * 104)
b. Aluminum(1.625 * 105 cal)
c. Water(3.51 * 104)
4. Why do metals have such low specific heats? How does this relate to Conductors?
a. Metals have low specific heats because it takes less energy for metals to
absorb heat and change the structure of its molecules, and this relates to
conductors because conductors are substances that absorb heat very well
without producing as much energy as substances that are not conductors.
5. How are Heat and Temperature different for the following pictures of boiling
water? Explain: (Hint: Use the Heat equation)
Heat and temperature are different for the following pictures of boiling water because the
picture with the boiling water ocean will have more heat and a higher temperature than the
boiling water contained in a beaker, because according to the heat equations, the more mass
an object has, the more heat it uses to reach it to the boiling point, and thus, the temperature
and heat must be higher/greater than something with less mass.

Questions:
1. How are Heat and Temperature different for the following pictures of boiling w ater?
Explain: (Hint: Use the Heat equation)
Heat and Temperature are different for the following pictures of boiling water because
even though the temperature is the same, the amount of heat required is different, because an
ocean of boiling water has more mass than a beaker of boiling water, so according to the heat
equation, it requires more energy because the mass is heavier, so therefore needs more heat to
turn it into boiling water.
2. How can you use the unit (cal/gC) to explain the difference between Water and Silver?
You can use the unit (cal/gC) to explain the difference between Water and Silver
because that unit measures the amount of energy needed to heat or freeze an object, so you
can use the different amounts to compare and contrast the changes in energy in Water and
Silver.
3. Would it be possible for there to be solid oxygen on another planet? Explain:
Oxygen Melting Point: -218 C
Oxygen Boiling Point: -183 C
It may be possible for there to be solid oxygen on another planet, but then the planet’s
environment would have to be very, very, cold, because oxygen is naturally a gas at room
temperature and for it to change into a solid phase it would have to undergo a freezing process
that would bring the surrounding area to temperatures extremely low.

IV. Conclusion:
1. Explain the difference between Mixtures and Compounds using data. Compare the pie
charts.
The difference between mixtures and compounds is that mixtures are
combinations of chemical solutions while compounds are combinations of elements that
usually have the same ratio of elements combined together. For example, lemonade is
just a combination of lemon juice, sugar, and water. They don’t have a fixed ratio.
However, the compound Na3 PO4 will always have the same amount of sodium,
phosphorus, and oxygen no matter the amount or size of the compound. The first two pie
charts depict the amount of each material in percentages from two heterogeneous
mixtures, while the last two depict the amount of each material in percentages from two
compounds. No matter the percentage amount of any material in the first two pie charts,
the mixture will still be heterogeneous. In contrast, even a slight change of the
percentage of elements that make up a compound in the last two charts can change its
form.
2. E xplain how you separated the Salt from the Sand. Use as much new vocabulary as you
can.
I separated the salt from the sand by using a coffee filter and pouring water so it
can act like a solvent and catch all the salt compounds. Once the water and salt mixture
had been collected into a beaker, the salt was starting to dissolve into the water since it’s
a solute, so I had to place it on a hot plate to heat up the water in order to separate it from
the salt. Since the water has a higher boiling point, it was evaporated first and what was
left behind was the salt.

* Solubility values are given in grams of salt per 100 grams of water
Critical Thinking Questions:
1. How does the solubility of NaCl vary with the temperature of the water?
Explain using your data and your graph.
The solubility of NaCI varies with the temperature of the water, when the water
temperature increases, the quality of solubility also increases, in small increments that when graphed,
create a line with a relatively flat slope. In addition, using the data table above, you can clearly see
that when the water temperature increases, the solubility goes up, though only a few compared to
the other chemical compounds. Thus, the graph and the data table both prove that the solubility of
NaCI varies, and increases slightly, with the temperature of the water.
1. What generalization can you make about the relationship between solubility
and temperature? Provide Evidence (Data)
From my assumption, the relationship between solubility and temperature is that
when the temperature of a solvent increases, so does the solubility of the solute, and when
solvent temperature decreases, so does solubility, though it is to be kept in mind that every
compound has its own unique rate of change between temperature of the solvent and
solubility. For example, approximately 33 g of Ammonium Chloride dissolves at 10 ○ C in 100 g
of water, and at 20 ○ C , around 37 g of Ammonium Chloride can dissolve in 100 g of water. So
when temperature increases, so does the solubility of a solute.
Solubility Curve Practice Problems Worksheet 1

a. KNO3
Types of Solutions
On a solubility curve, the lines indicate the concentration of a s aturated solution -
the maximum amount of solute that will dissolve at that specific temperature.
Values on the graph showing a curve represent unsaturated solutions - more
solute could be dissolved at that temperature.
Label the following solutions as saturated or unsaturated. If unsaturated, write how
much more solute can be dissolved in the solution.

B. What is the solubility of KCl at 25°C?
a. Around 35 g
C. What is the solubility of Ce2 (SO4 )3 at 10°C?
a. Around 14 g
D. What is the solubility of Ce2 (SO4 )3 at 50°C?
a. Around 5 g
2.
A. At 90°C, you dissolved 10 g of KCl in 100 g of water. Is this solution saturated
or unsaturated?
a. Unsaturated
B. How do you know?
a. If you look at the graph above, you can see that the saturation level for
KCI at 90°C is around 52 g, so for only 10 g, there is not enough solute
for the solution to be saturated. 10 g of KCI it lies below the saturation
level, thus it is unsaturated.
3. A mass of 100 g of NaNO3 is dissolved in 100 g of water at 80ºC.
A. Is the solution saturated or unsaturated?
a. Unsaturated
B. As the solution is cooled, at what temperature should solid first appear in the
solution? Explain.
a. Solid should first appear in the solution when the temperature starts to
go below approximately 35°C. Since solid forms in a solution when it
becomes supersaturated, the goal is to look at the graph and find the
place where 100 g of NaNO3 is above the saturation level for the
solution, because a solution is supersaturated when there is too much
solute and the temperature is too low. The only place where the
solution can be supersaturated is if the temperature goes below
approximately 35°C.

heated to 70ºC. How many more grams of potassium nitrate must be added to
make the solution saturated? Explain your reasoning (S ee question #2 on the

Vocabulary: Unsaturated, saturated, supersaturated, Ions, Heat, Temperature, grams,
solubility, chemical formula
According to the solubility graph, the point that is being shown is supersaturated,
meaning that there is too much solute of the solvent to dissolve at 15 C, the given
temperature. In detail, there are so many ions of the solute that they all can’t combine with
the solvent’s ions, so they settle, or precipitate, at the bottom. In order to make the solution
saturated, you either need to decrease the amount of solute to 25g or increase heat and
temperature to 38 C. In conclusion, the solution is supersaturated, and the only ways to solve
that is to decrease the amount of solute or increase the temperature by a certain amount
according to the solubility graph.
