Answer 25

RIGHT

Question 26

What is the LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MATTER?

Answer 26

MATTER CAN NOT BE CREATED OR DESTROYED

Question 27

PHYSICAL OR CHEMICAL?

Eating a burger and having the acids in your stomach digest it to create energy

Answer 27

CHEMICAL

Question 28

What is your evidence?

Eating a burger and having the acids in your stomach digest it to create energy is a CHEMICAL change because . . .

Answer 28

Evidence: It is a chemical change because the burger was digested and CHANGED into energy.

Question 29

What is your reasoning?

Eating a burger and having the acids in your stomach digest it to create energy is a CHEMICAL change because the burger was digested and CHANGED into energy . . .

Answer 29

Reasoning : When a new substance is made, then it is evidence that a CHEMICAL change has occurred. The ATOMS were REARRANGED to MAKE SOMETHING NEW.

Question 30

PHYSICAL OR CHEMICAL?

Taking a piece of paper and cutting it up to make paper snowflakes.

Answer 30

PHYSCIAL

Question 31

What is your evidence?

Taking a piece of paper and cutting it up to make paper snowflakes is a PHYSICAL change.

Answer 31

Evidence: We start with paper and change the size and shape of the paper but we still have paper in the end.

Question 32

What is your reasoning?

Taking a piece of paper and cutting it up to make paper snowflakes is a PHYSICAL change. We START with paper and change the size and shape of the paper BUT STILL HAVE PAPER IN THE END.

Answer 32

Reasoning: Because there is no new substance produced, we have a physical change. The ATOMS of the paper still LOOK THE SAME as they did when we started.
