Additional Practice Questions
1) For the following experiment prepare a materials list and write a step-by-step procedure in the past passive as if you had
done the experiment. Also identify the independent, the dependent variables, and the controlled variables.
The grade 9 class is doing an experiment to see if pH level (level of acidity) affects plant growth. Students tested three
different solutions: pH 4 (acidic), pH 7 (neutral), and pH 10 (alkaline or basic). Each pair of students did only one pH level.
The students measured 100 g of potting soil using an electronic balance. Then they put the potting soil into a small pot (all
the same size). They placed a pea seed that was starting to grow (already germinated) on top of the soil. They measured
15 mL of their pH solution in a 25 mL graduated cylinder and poured this onto the pea seed. Every day the students
watered their plant with an additional 5 mL of their pH solution measured in a 10 mL graduated cylinder. Every day the
students measured the height of their pea plants using a ruler.

24. A piece of lead is placed in a graduated cylinder that initially reads 10.0 mL. After a piece of lead is added to the
graduated cylinder, it has a new reading of 45.6 mL. What is the mass of the lead? (density of lead = 11.3 g/cm 3)
SNC1D Exam Review
Given
D = 11.3 g/cm3
Vi = 10.0 mL
Vf = 45.6 mL
Required
M=?
Analyse
V= Vf-Vi
M = DV
Solve:
V = 45.6 mL – 10.0 mL
V = 35.6 mL (1 mL = 1 cm3)
V = 35.6 cm3
M = DV
M = (11.3 g/cm3)(35.6 cm3)
M = 402.28 g
Therefore the mass of the lead sample is 402.28 g.
25. A cylindrical object has a diameter of 0.06 m and a height of 12 m. The mass of the object is 3.6 kg. What is the density
of the object? What is the object made of? (refer to table 1 on page 24 of your text).
Given
M = 3.6 kg
diam = 0.06 m
h = 12m
Required
D=?
Analyse
V = πr2h
R = D/2
D = M/V
Solve:
V = π(0.06m/2)2(12m)
V = 0.03392m3
D = M/V
D = (3.6 kg)/(0.03392m3)
D = 106.1 kg/m3
Therefore the density of the object is 106.1 kg/m3. The table of densities does not list this substance.

its tilt will cause different places on the Earth to receive differentiate amounts
of energy.

13. Using the table above, If we made a map of the solar system, where 20 cm represented
1 astronomical unit (a.u.), how many centimetres would there be between the Sun and
Jupiter?

# of A.U. to Jupiter = 778 330 000 km/ 150 000 000 km = 5.1888 A.U.

1 A.U. = 20 cm. therefore, 5.1888 A.U. x 20 cm = 103.77 cm
22. Does a star’s apparent brightness depend on just its distance from Earth? Exaplin
your answer.
No, a star’s brightness also depends on its luminosity. A bright star is not necessarily
closer to Earth; it could just be large and more luminous
23. List four properties of stars
Four properties of stars are brightness, colour, temperature, and composition
24. Place the following in order from youngest to oldest: A. star; B. nebula; C. red
giant; D. white dwarf
B. nebula; A. star; C. red giant; D. white dwarf
25. What is a neutron Star?
A neutron star is an extremely dense star that is made only of neutrons

26. What is the fate of our Sun.
In about 5 billion years, the Sun will become a red giant, then collapse to become a white
dwarf
27. Can a star less massive than the Sun become a supernova? Explain
No, stars have to be more than 12 times the mass of the Sun before they can become a
supernova
28. Why are the more massive stars the only important contributors in enriching the
universe with heavy elements?
The heavy elements come from supernovae; only more massive stars become supernovae
29. The Canadian songwriter Joni Mitchell wrote, “We are stardust” in her song called
“Woodstock”. She was being factual as well as poetic. Explain why.
Possible answer: I am made of stardust. Heavier elements released through supernova
explosions are ejected throughout the universe, eventually showing up in stars, planets,
and other bodies, including humans

Ecology Exam Review - ANSWERS
1. What is an ecosystem . Give 2 examples.
The interaction of a community of organisms with their environment.
e.g. forest, farmer's field, pond
2. What is an abiotic factor? Give 2 examples.
The non-living components of an environment, not produced through the action of living
things.
e.g. wind, water, tornadoes, sand
Note: a bird's nest is a BIOTIC factor, not an ABIOTIC factor!
3. What is a biotic factor. Give 2 examples.
Something that affects living things that is living itself or a product of a living organism.
e.g. bird's nest, viral disease, predation, competition, humans, grizzly bears
4. What is a producer? Give an example.
An organism that produces its own food (in the form of sugar) from sunlight and inorganic
molecules through the process of photosynthesis.
e.g. plants (all types)
5. What is a decomposer ? Give an example?
Is an organism that breaks down dead or decaying organisms.
e.g. worms, bacteria, fungi
6. What type of organism is in the:
1st trophic level = producer, e.g. plants
2nd trophic level = herbivore, e.g. rabbit
3rd trophic level = carnivore, e.g. fox
4th trophic level = top carnivore, e.g. wolf
7. A consumer is...
An organism that eats another organism. e.g. rabbit, fox, wolf.
8. What is the primary source of energy for all living things?
The Sun and the visible light that the Sun emits.
9. Show the differences & similarities between photosynthesis & respiration. You may use
a Venn diagram to show this.
Photosynthesis only:
H2O + CO2 + visible light => C6H12O6 + O2
Captures energy from sunlight and stores it in glucose for LATER use by the organism
Occurs only in light
Occurs only in plants
Occurs only in chloroplasts
Common:
Both involve H2O, CO2, C6H12O6 and O2.
Both involve energy stored in glucose
Photosynthesis is the reverse of cellular respiration
Cellular respiration only:
C6H12O6 + O2 => CO2 + H2O + release of energy
Energy stored in glucose is used by organism to do things (e.g. human running).
