Carrie has a container that contains thousands of mixed glass beads and iron beads of different shapes and sizes. Which of the following is the best way to separate them? • The glass beads will float, so she could add water to the container and the glass will float to the top. • B. The iron beads are magnetic, so she could separate • the glass from the iron with a strong magnet. • C. The iron beads might be heavier, so she could shake the container until the iron beads settle to the bottom. • D.

Imagine that you have four buckets full of dark, muddy water. One bucket is frozen, one bucket is boiled, one bucket is shaken up, and one bucket is passed through a paper filter.

Imagine a thick ten-kilogram block of soap and a thin ten-kilogram sheet of soap. Which answer correctly explains which will dissolve first when they are both placed underwater? • The sheet will dissolve first because it has more surface area. • The sheet will dissolve first because it has less mass than the block. • The block will dissolve first because it is less spread out than the sheet. • D. The sheet and the block weigh the same, so they will take the same amount of time to dissolve.
Kayla wants to know if a sugar cube in a bowl of water will dissolve more quickly if it is stirred with a spoon than if it is left alone. Which answer explains the effect that stirring will have? • Stirring makes the sugar move around, and it dissolves more slowly because it is not staying still. • The sugar will dissolve more slowly because the movement of the water makes it stick together. • The sugar dissolves more quickly because the motion of the spoon creates heat, which melts the sugar. • D. When the sugar is stirred, more surface area will come into contact with the water, so the sugar dissolves more quickly.
