Math with Significance
1) 1.0 (1.00+1.000) = 1.0 (2.00) = 2.0
2) (1.000 +1.000)/(0.09 + 0.01) = 2.000/0.10 = 20.
3) 0.50 (2 + 2.0) = 0.50 (4) = 2
4) A rock weighing 7.05 g is dropped into a
graduated cylinder containing 5.1 mL of water.
What is the density of the rock if the final
volume of water is 10.5 mL?
D = m/V = 7.05 g/(10.5 mL -5.1 mL) = 7.05 g/5.4 mL
D = (1.3055556 g/mL) = 1.3 g/mL

B.
C.
D.
poured into the sink
returned to their original containers
mixed together and dumped in a designated container
disposed of as directed by your teacher
3) In chemistry lab, a student was instructed to find the density of
a rectangular piece of aluminum. After careful measurement, he
recorded a mass of 31.44 g and a volume of 11.7 cm3. Using
the formula density = mass/volume and a calculator, his answer
was 2.6871794 g/cm3. Which of these is the correct answer to
report for the density of the aluminum?
A. 2.7 g/cm3
B. 2.69 g/cm3
C. 2.687 g/cm3
D. 2.68 g/cm3

B. 0.5 g
C. 5.0 g
D. 500,000 g
5) The table shows the data obtained by four groups of students

A group of students investigated how temperature affects the rate
of chemical reactions. They used hydrogen peroxide, which
breaks down into oxygen and water, for their experiment. The
students measured how long it took to obtain 50 mL of oxygen gas
from a given volume of hydrogen peroxide heated to different
temperatures. Their data is shown in the table above.
6) Select the best way for the students to reduce the experimental
error in their investigation.
A. Test more than one variable at a time.
B. Perform repeated trials.
C. Change their answers if they do not match their hypothesis.
D. Perform the experiment only one time.
7) Characteristics of a substance can be classified as physical
properties or chemical properties. Which of the following is a
chemical property?
A. Boils at 56°C
B. Tastes sour
C. Has a density of 2.9 g/cm3
D. Reacts with acid to produce hydrogen gas
8) Select the observation that does NOT support the conclusion
that a chemical reaction took place.
A. Liquid water changed to water vapor.
B. A precipitate was formed.
C. An odor developed.
D. Temperature rose.
9) Reese’s teacher gave her three test tubes, each containing a
different unknown liquid sample of a given density. Reese
added orange food coloring to each test tube and then
calculated the density of the sample. She place the data she
collected in the data table. She concluded that the added food
color increased the density of the sample. What is another
reasonable interpretation of the data?

reacts with it
11) Distillation is a separation technique that involves
A. using a porous barrier to separate a solid from a liquid
B. separating dissolved substances based on their tendency
to be drawn across a surface
C. the formation of pure, solid particles of a substance from a
solution containing the dissolved substance
D. separating two or more liquids based on differences in their
boiling points
Figure 1 shows a graduated cylinder that contained 25 mL of
