atomic structure
B
melting point
C
ability to dissolve
D
brittleness
4

How many atoms of each element are in the chemical formula NH4NO3?

A
1 nitrogen, 1 hydrogen, and 3 oxygen
B
1 nitrogen, 4 hydrogen, and 3 oxygen
C
2 nitrogen, 4 hydrogen, and 3 oxygen
D

5

The diagram shows two water molecules. What does the dotted line between the water molecules represent?

Question illustration
A
a polar bond
B
a covalent bond
C
a hydrogen bond
D
an electronegative bond
6

How do the nuclei of covalently bonded atoms help keep the bond together?

A
Neutral particles in the nucleus provide enough mass that the force of gravity holds the atoms together.
B
Neutral particles in the nucleus can become positive or negative in order to balance the charges.
C
Positive particles in the nucleus change into negative particles that enter electron shells.
D
Positive particles in the nucleus are attracted to shared electrons, so the atoms stay close together.
7

By which process does water vapor become a cloud?

A
evaporation
B
transpiration
C
condensation
D
precipitation

Suna passes an electric current through a sample of clear, colorless, and odorless liquid. As the experiment continues, bubbles form, and the volume of liquid decreases. Suna collects samples of two colorless, odorless gases that bubble out of the liquid. One of the gases burns. Neither the original liquid nor the other gas burns.Which is the best explanation of her results?

A
The electric current changed some of the sample to gas even though the sample was not breaking down. Therefore, the original liquid is a compound.
B
The electric current released a gas that was odorless and colorless, like the original sample. Therefore, the original liquid is an element.
C
The sample was broken down by the electric current and formed a new substance that could burn. Therefore, the original liquid is a compound.
D
The sample lost some of its volume, but the gas still had the same chemical makeup as the original sample. Therefore, the original liquid is an element.

T
The chemical formula does not show how the atoms are connected to one another.
T
The chemical formula does not show the number of atoms of each element in a molecule.
T
The chemical formula does not show the chemical symbols of the elements in the compound.

B
Organisms would carry out life functions without water.
C
Animals would be affected, but some desert plants would survive.
D
Life could no longer exist on Earth.
12
