About This Quiz

This PRE-TEST titled 'Properties of Matter U3' assesses foundational knowledge in Chemistry, focusing on the classification of matter's properties (both physical and chemical) and their intensiveness. It is designed to evaluate understanding of concepts such as mass, volume, flammability, and reactivity with oxygen.

  • 2. 

    Which of the following matches the property with the proper tool and measurement unit:

    • Mass-graduated cylinder-mL

    • Volume-graduated cylinder-mL

    • Length-ruler-gram

    • Volume-graduated cylinder-gram

    Correct Answer
    A. Volume-graduated cylinder-mL
    Explanation
    The answer is correct because volume is the property that is measured using a graduated cylinder, and the unit of measurement for volume is milliliters (mL). A graduated cylinder is a tool specifically designed to measure the volume of liquids accurately, making it the appropriate tool for measuring volume. The unit of measurement, mL, is commonly used to measure small volumes, such as those typically encountered in a laboratory setting.

    The ability to react with oxygen is a __________________ property.

    • Physical - intensive

    • Chemical - intensive

    • Chemical - extensive

    • Physical - extensive

    Correct Answer
    A. Chemical - intensive
    Explanation
    React is a chemical word and intensive because the amount of matter you have doesn't change the ability for the oxygen to react.

    Fruit can turn brown is a ________________ change.

    • Physical - intensive

    • Chemical - intensive

    • Chemical - extensive

    • Physical - extensive

    Correct Answer
    A. Chemical - intensive
    Explanation
    Color change is a indecation of a chemical property and the amount of fruit you have doesn't change the fact that it can turn brown, intensive

    When different liquids are mixed together they will

    • Mix randomly

    • Settle with the most dense on top

    • Settle with the most dense in the middle

    • Settle with the most dense on the bottom

    Correct Answer
    A. Settle with the most dense on the bottom
    Explanation
    When different liquids are mixed together, they will settle with the most dense liquid on the bottom. This is because density is a measure of how much mass is packed into a given volume. The denser liquid will have more mass and therefore will sink to the bottom, while the less dense liquid will float on top. This settling occurs due to the force of gravity, which pulls objects with greater mass towards the center of the Earth. As a result, the most dense liquid will be found at the bottom of the mixture.

    Ice melting is a ________________ change.

    • Physical - extensive

    • Chemical - extensive

    • Physical - intensive

    • Chemical - intensive

    Correct Answer
    A. Physical - intensive
    Explanation
    Melting is a physical word and the amount of matter you have doesn't affect the fact that it melts, which makes it intensive.

    State of matter is a ________________________ property.

    • Physical - extensive

    • Chemical - extensive

    • Physical - intensive

    • Chemical - intensive

    Correct Answer
    A. Physical - intensive
    Explanation
    States of matter are physical in nature and it is intensive because the amount of matter you have doesn't change the state.

    Flammability is a ___________________ property.

    • Physical - extensive

    • Chemical - intensive

    • Physical - intensive

    • Chemical - extensive

    Correct Answer
    A. Chemical - intensive
    Explanation
    Flammable is a chemical word, think burning and intensive because the amount of matter you have doesn't change the flammability. A drop is flammable and a gallon of it is flammable.

    Combustibility is a ____________________ property.

    • Physical - extensive

    • Chemical - intensive

    • Physical - intensive

    • Chemical - extensive

    Correct Answer
    A. Chemical - intensive
    Explanation
    Combustibility is a chemical word and it is intensive because the amount of matter you have doesn't change the fact that the matter is combustible.

    • Physical - intensive

    Correct Answer
    A. Physical - intensive
    Explanation
    Density is a physical word and it is intensive because the amount of matter you have doesn't change the density of the matter.
