2) A girl washes her favorite sweater. She hangs it outside on a clothesline in the sun. Two hours later, the sweater is dry. What happened to the water in the sweater?
A
The water lost energy to its surroundings.
B
The water absorbed heat energy and evaporated.
C
The water transpired and evaporated.
D
The water condensed and flowed out of the sweater.
3) What process allows ocean currents to transfer heat around the globe?
A
convection
B
radiation
C
evaporation
D
conduction
4) Miguel prepares a flower bed on a hot summer morning. He covers the bed with a sheet of plastic that extends to the edge of the bed. He notices at the end of the day that the plastic now extends two inches beyond the edge. Why has that happened?
A
because the higher air pressure caused the plastic to expand
B
because the heat of the sun caused the plastic to expand
C
because the weight of the air caused the plastic to expand
D
because the lower air pressure caused the plastic to expand
5) Which statement best explains how energy is transferred during evaporation and precipitation?
A
Liquid water absorbs energy from the sun during evaporation and then loses energy, forming precipitation.
B
Liquid water loses energy during evaporation and then absorbs energy from the sun, forming precipitation.
C
Liquid water loses energy during evaporation and then loses more energy during precipitation.
D
Liquid water absorbs energy from the sun during evaporation and then absorbs more energy from clouds during precipitation.
6) Which statement best describes what will occur when a hot nail is dropped into a container of cold water?
A
The hot nail will remain warmer than the cold water.
B
Heat energy in the cold water will flow into the nail.
C
The cold water will prevent the nail from losing heat.
D
Heat energy in the nail will flow into the cold water.
7) A pot containing 500 ml of water is brought to a boil. Later, the pot contains 400 ml of boiling water. Why is there a difference in the amount of water in the pot?
A
The water contained salt that evaporated.
B
The water gained mass as it boiled.
C
100 ml of water was added to the pot.
D
100 ml of water changed into water vapor.
8) A builder measures the length of a metal beam and finds that it is slightly shorter than when he measured it that morning. Why is the beam shorter?
A
The beam’s mass decreased, causing the beam to expand.
B
The beam’s mass increased, causing the beam to contract.
C
The temperature decreased, causing the beam to contract.
D
The temperature increased, causing the beam to expand.
9) Which is an example of the formation of a new substance?
A
wood burning
B
wax melting
C
water boiling
D
clothes drying

A
ice changing into liquid water
B
water vapor changing into liquid water
C
liquid water changing into water vapor
D
ice changing into water vapor
11) A 50-gram ice cube changes to liquid water and then to water vapor. What happens during this process?
A
The mass of the ice becomes greater than the total mass of the liquid water and the water vapor.
B
The mass of the liquid water becomes greater than the total mass of the ice and the water vapor.
C
The total mass of the ice, liquid water, and the water vapor stays the same.
D
The total mass of the ice, liquid water, and the water vapor decreases.
12) Outer space can be extremely cold. How does a space suit allow a human to survive the cold of space?
A
A space suit is made of good conductors that move heat easily.
B
A space suit is made to absorb all surrounding heat.
C
A space suit is made to reflect all light.
D
A space suit is made of insulating materials that slow the movement of heat.

A
by convection
B
by radiation
C
by evaporation
D
by conduction
