Students in physical science conducted the following experiment to demonstrate a common reaction, corrosion or rusting, while ve

rifying the law of conservation of matter.
Students will:
• use the following scientific process skills: observing and recording data, making inferences from observation;
• recognize the signs of a chemical change;
• understand and apply the Law of Conservation of Matter;
• use diagrams to illustrate the Law of Conservation of Matter as it applies to a chemical change.

Procedure:
1. Cut off a piece of steel wool and dip in vinegar.
2. Wring out any excess vinegar.
3. Describe the appearance of the steel wool.
4. Place the steel wool into the flask and cover the opening of the flask with the balloon.
5. Find the mass of the system (flask, steel wool, balloon) and record the mass in the data table.
6. Allow the system to remain untouched for 24 hours then find the mass again. Record.

Consider the statement in the prompt: the students will understand and apply the Law of Conservation of Matter. How did the experimental design show that the students understood the concept of measuring conservation of matter during this experiment?

A) The students carefully and accurately recorded the before and after data of the experiment.
B) The students created an open system, allowing the steel wool to react with the oxygen from the outside environment.
C) The students created a closed system by using the balloon to contain the reactants and then the products in the flask.
Eliminate
D) The students measured the mass of both the reactants, including the flask and balloon, and the products using a beam balance.

Answer

The students created a closed system by using the balloon to contain the reactants and then the products in the flask.

Explanation

In physics experiments, we apply closed systems to conserve the mass within the boundaries of the system and allow energy to freely enter and leave the boundary of the system. A closed system concept is applied to eliminate errors of external factors that could change results of the experiment.

If we had a Gold necklace, and we melted it down and reshaped it to a gold coin
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

D) Volume mass and density

volume mass and density do not change because when the necklace is melted down it doesn't change the amount or density of the necklace.

The evolution of H. floresiensis is an example of island dwarfism.

Explanation:

H. floresiensis is a species of hominid. It differs significantly than the other hominid species in size though, as it appears to be a dwarfed version of its ancestors and close relatives. Its alleged ancestor is literary twice taller, which brings in the question as to what has triggered such an evolutionary adaptation.

This hominid species lived only on a relatively small island, in isolation. The resources are very limited, and the climate is warm and humid all year around. As seen in many species of animals, when individuals get into such an environment, they tend to experience either island dwarfism, or island gigantism. The island dwarfism tends to be common among large and medium sized species, while the island gigantism tends to be more common among the small species.

When the ancestors of H. floresiensis ended up in this environment, it was advantageous for them to smaller. The reason for that is that smaller bodies require less nutrition, and are also producing less heat.

Your teacher asks you to model the phases of mitosis using a cheese pizza. You may use other toppings or kitchen tools to develo
I am Lyosha [343]

Interphase: Add mushrooms to represent organelles and a ring of pepperoni to make a nuclear membrane. Strips of peppers would represent the DNA inside the nucleus. To model the end of interphase, double the number of mushrooms on the pizza to indicate the copying of the organelles. Double the number of peppers inside the nucleus to represent the replication of DNA.

Prophase: Pair strips of pepper inside the nucleus to show the formation of chromosome pairs. Strips of aluminum foil would represent spindle fibers.

Metaphase: Line up the pair of peppers along the middle of the pizza. Removing the pepperoni would show the breakdown of the nuclear membrane.

Anaphase: Split up the pairs of peppers, and show the spindle fibers, made of aluminum foil, pulling them to either side of the cell.

Telophase: Make two new nuclear membranes around the pepper strips using pepperoni. Separate the pairs of peppers to show the chromosomes unwinding.

Cytokinesis: Cut the pizza across the middle to show the cell dividing into two daughter cells.

Most media-based nutritional information is reviewed for accuracy by the USDA and the FDA.
saveliy_v [14]
Many governmental agencies have great effects on how one lives his or her life, including the food eaten and the proper amount of intake. However, many of the media-based nutritional information have not been reviewed by the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) and FDA (Food and Drug Administration). So, the answer is false.
