Super hard questions impossibal!!!!! You are asked to demonstrate that the volume of a gas expands when heated and contracts when cooled. You do an experiment using a balloon. First you inflate and tie off a balloon, then measure the circumference at room temperature. Then you put the balloon in a freezer for an hour, measure the circumference, and find that it has contracted. When you put the balloon in a warm room for a time, the balloon expands and the circumference increases. What is the independent variable in this experiment?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A.The balloon B.The volume of air in the balloon C.The temperature of the air in the balloon D.The time of day the experiment is performed

OpenStudy (aaronq):

you're right it's impossibal to solve.. jk it's the temperature of the balloon independent = what you're changing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks help me with more please? @aaronq

OpenStudy (aaronq):

sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thanks @aaronq Which of the following physical states has particles that vibrate in place and do not move past their neighbors? A.Gas B.liquid C.molecule D.solid

OpenStudy (aaronq):

solids

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good heres another! @aaronq Students dropped different colored toothpicks in lawn grass. They were given one minute to pick up as many toothpicks as they could. Students found that they had more red and blue toothpicks than green. Ecologists observed that the Varying hares (rabbits) fur is brown in the summer and white in winter. They found that the population remained about the same in winter and summer. What advantage does the model presented in the classroom have over the natural setting? A.It shows how easily people would find animals of different colors B.It is more accurate because classroom models better represent nature than nature itself C.It is easier to calculate the results because of the controlled environment D.It bears no advantage over the natural testing environment

OpenStudy (aaronq):

It is easier to calculate the results because of the controlled environment

Your smart haha good job @aaronq Which is the best example of how science and improvements in technology affect life? A.Some bacteria can cause life-threatening diseases in humans. B.Human genetic material is inserted into bacteria to produce human insulin C.A rabbit grows white fur in the winter for camouflage. D.The wind blows wing-shaped seeds to more fertile soil.

OpenStudy (aaronq):

haaha thanks ps. you're = you are your = possessive as in "your pen" Human genetic material is inserted into bacteria to produce human insulin

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok haha thanks! Bacteria reproduce asexually by dividing in two. If you were to examine the genetic material of two bacteria that had just been reproduced from the same parental cell, how would their genetic material compare? (Assume no mutations occur) A. Completely Different B. 65% the same C. 50% the same D. 100% the same

OpenStudy (aaronq):

D. 100% the same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nice! @aaronq Both parents of a Siamese cat have green eyes. Their offspring also have green eyes. This would be an example of A. an acquired trait B. an inherited trait C. a learned trait D. a found trait

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@aaronq

OpenStudy (aaronq):

B. an inherited trait because it's genetic

okay what about this one @aaronq Which answer shows the following items in order from the highest density to the lowest density? * water, atmosphere, core, crust atmosphere, crust, core, water crust, water, atmosphere, core core, crust, water, atmosphere

OpenStudy (aaronq):

core, crust, water, atmosphere i think, i havent taken earth sciences in a long time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thats fine @aaronq A rock and a lead weight both sink when dropped into a lake. What do you know about their densities? * They have the same densities They have different densities They are denser than water They are less dense than water

OpenStudy (aaronq):

They are denser than water

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A student was given an assignment to calculate the density of a rock. Which of the following would best describe one of the needed steps to calculating the rock's density? * The student puts the rock in an empty graduated cylinder and records the measurement in milliliters The student puts the rock in a graduated cylinder filled with water and records the volume of the rock The student uses a thermometer to measure the temperature of the rock in Celsius degrees The student measures the length of the rock in centimeters with a metric ruler

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@aaronq

OpenStudy (aaronq):

to find the density, \(\rho\), of anything you need both the volume and the mass of the object. \(\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In winter, a layer of cold air settles in the valleys and warmer air is often found higher in the mountains. What might account for this condition? * There is more warm air than cold air There is more cold air than warm air Cold air is less dense than warm air Cold air is denser than warm air

OpenStudy (aaronq):

Cold air is denser than warm air

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A liquid is found to have a volume of 75 mL in a graduated cylinder. When placed on a balance, the liquid and graduated cylinder has a mass of 125 g. The empty graduated cylinder has a mass of 50 g. What is the density of the liquid? * .1 g/mL 1 g/mL 2.2 g/mL 22 g/mL

OpenStudy (aaronq):

use the formula \(\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so whats the answer?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

you use the formula above and a calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know how

OpenStudy (aaronq):

whats the mass of the liquid?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

if you have a cup with water and together they weigh 100g, but the cup weighs 50 g, whats the weight of the water?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk im confused whats the answer?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

if you're not going to try and im not going to help you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i answered it next one Which of the following characteristics would be appropriately used in developing a classification key for birds? * where the bird was seen how plentiful that bird is in your neighborhood what food the bird eats color markings on the bird's head

OpenStudy (aaronq):

idk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following is our most useful criterion to determine if two currently-living organisms or populations are of the same species? * They interbreed and their offspring are sterile. They interbreed and produce fertile offspring. They interbreed and their offspring all die at birth. Only the offspring of the two organisms can interbreed and produce offspring.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@aaronq

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first line answers it all: THE VOLUME OF A GAS EXPANDS WHEN HEAT IS BEING GIVEN..AND VOLUME OF GASES CONTRACTS WHEN IT IS BROUGHT DOWN TO A LOWER TEMPERATURE.which answers the variation of circumference of that baloon.
