Q

How was coal formed?

A

Plants and animals who died in swamps over millions of years got covered by layers of dirt and rock. The resulting pressure and heat turned the plants into coal.

Q

How was natural gas and oil formed?

A

Plants and animals who died in the sea over millions of years got covered by layers of dirt and rock. The resulting pressure and heat turned the plants into natural gas and oil.
Natural gas is same as oil formation but more pressure and heat.

Q

Why is carbon used for fuels and energy?

A

They burn with a clean flame and no smoke is produced.
Carbon and their compounds give out a lot of heat, energy and light when they are burnt in air
Carbon compounds have higher maximum ignition temperatures and their combustion can be restrained.

Q

Atomic number

A

Number of electrons/protons

17
Q

Atomic mass

A

Total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus

18
Q

How to find number of neutrons

A

Mass Number – Atomic Number = Number of Neutrons

19
Q

What happens when you burn a non-metal?

A

Fuel -> Non Metal + oxygen -> Carbon Dioxide + Water

20
Q

Ocean acidification

A

CO₂ + H₂O -> H₂CO₃ (carbonic acid)
Ocean acidification is the reduction in the pH of the ocean over an extended period of time, caused by more carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere.

21
Q

Crystalization

A

Used to obtain pure crystals of a substance from an impure mixture.

Solid is disolved in an solvent
Mixture is heated to evaporate solvent
Solution is allowed to cool and solid appears as crystals

22
Q

3 Sustainable fishing methods

A

Traps, Harpoons, Hook

23
Q

How are microplastics made?

A

Weathering, through exposure to, for example, wave action, wind abrasion, and ultraviolet radiation from sunlight.

24
Q

What plastic cant be recycled?

A

Thermosetting plastics

25
Q

What plastic can be recycled?

A

Thermoplastics

26
Q

How is plastic made?

A

Lots of small monomers combined by polymerization to create long chains of polymers.

27
Q

4 Spheres of the earth

A

Lithosphere (land), hydrosphere (water), biosphere (living things), and atmosphere (air)

28
Q

Red cabbage experiment

A

Red cabbage juice is purple
Neutral= purple
acid= Red
Base= Blue

29
Q

How does static electricity work

A

Balloon rubs hair
Balloon collects electrons on the hair
Hair repels because of same charge

30
Q

How is energy lost at each level

A

Energy is lost due to movement, respiration, heat loss in penguin etc.

31
