Heat energy from the fire was radiated through the air to the candle. The fire does transfer heat by convection, but only upwards!

In order for clouds to form, what must happen first? Heat energy from the sun changes water in clouds from a gas to a liquid. Light energy from the sun changes water on earth from a gas to a liquid Light energy from the sun changes water in clouds from a liquid into a gas Heat energy from the sun changes water on earth from a liquid into a gas.

Heat energy from the sun changes water on earth from a liquid into a gas. (Evaporation)

Why does an ice cube melt when dropped into hot liquid? The liquid absorbs heat from the ice Heat from the liquid transfers to the ice Heat from the ice transfers to the liquid Cold from the ice transfers to the liquid

Heat from the liquid transfers to the ice. Remember than only heat can move. There is no such thing as cold moving.

Which best explains why a blacksmith must heat iron before shaping it? Heating iron makes it harder Heating iron makes it softer Heating iron changes its color Heating iron changes its texture

Heating iron makes it softer (and more malleable)

Which is an example of heat transfer by convection? A glowing light bulb Cooking with a microwave oven Heating a piece of metal in a flame Heating the atmosphere

Heating the atmosphere. The atmosphere isn't heated by the Sun directly. The Sun's radiation heats the Earth, and the air is heated by the Earth by convection.

Which material is most likely to expand when exposed to freezing temperatures? Iron Wood Water Plastic

Water. This is a tricky one. Most materials contract when they get cold. However, when water freezes, it gets BIGGER. Try it at home if you haven't already.

Billy's mom is having a hard time opening a jar of jelly. Billy tells his mom to hold the jar lid under water for a short period of time Which best explains the water temperature Billy's mo should use and why this would help. Hot water warms the lid and causes it to contract, making it easier to open. Hot water warms the lid and causes it to expand, making it easier to open. Cool water warms the lid and causes it to contract, making it easier to open. Cool water warms the lid and causes it to expand, making it easier to open.

Hot water warms the lid and causes it to expand, making it easier to open. Good tip to remember You'll use this trick a lot in your life.

What happens to water vapor when heat energy is taken away from it? It turns into a liquid It turns into a gas It turns into a solid It turns into transpiration

It turns into a liquid

Which of the materials would be the best conductor of heat? Plastic Metal Stone Wood

Metal (stone is second best, then plastic and then wood)

Why is it better to have a cooking pot with a plastic handle instead of a metal handle? Plastic looks better than metal Plastic washes easier that metal Plastic is less expensive that metal Plastic is not a good conductor of heat.

Plastic is not a good conductor of heat. The best handles are wood, but they also are more expensive to make.

The air in the balloon is now denser than the surrounding air, causing the balloon to rise. The heated air contracts to fill the balloon. The air in the balloon is now lighter than the surrounding air, causing the balloon to rise.

The heated air expands to fill the balloon. The air in the balloon is now lighter than the surrounding air, causing the balloon to rise.

Which best explains why the sun is needed in order to produce rain The sun cools the clouds, which causes them to hold less rain The sun cools ocean water which causes more clouds to form The sun heats the clouds which causes them to hold more rain The sun warms the ocean which causes more clouds to form.

The sun warms the ocean which causes more clouds to form. Most evaporation on earth is from the oceans.

A fresh apple is placed in a tightly sealed glass jar. The total mass of the jar and the apple is measured. After a week, the apple begins to rot. The total mass is measured again. What can be accurately predicted? The total mass will increase because the rotting apple will produce gases. The total mass will decrease because the rotting apple will release heat. The total mass will not change because the amount of matter in the apple and the jar will not change. The mass of the jar will be the total mass because no matter will be left in the jar after the apple rots.

The total mass will not change because the amount of matter in the apple and the jar will not change. As long as the jar is sealed tightly, nothing will get out, so all the original stuff will still be there, even if it has undergone a chemical change.

Ceramic materials do not melt easily. Which best describes a practical use for ceramics that takes advantage of this characteristic. An ice cube tray A statue in a garden Pottery in a museum Tiles on the outside of the space shuttle.

Tiles on the outside of the space shuttle. It gets REALLY hot when the space shuttle re-enters the atmosphere. The tiles on the outside act as an insulator. Tile isn't the best insulator, but the others, like plastic and wood will melt or burn pretty quickly.
