6
6. Over the centuries, the model of the atom has changed multiple times—from a solid sphere to a nucleus surrounded by electron clouds. What does this indicate about scientific models?
7
7. In which of the following scenarios is a scientific model LEAST likely to be useful?
8

9
9. According to the Particle Model of Matter, what is true about the composition of pure substances?
10
10. If you have a cup of pure distilled water and a separate block of pure gold, how do their particles compare based on the Particle Model?
11
11. Imagine you have a solid cube of iron. If you cut it repeatedly until you reach the smallest possible piece, what characteristic will those smallest iron particles have?
12
12. A student claims that \"Air is not matter because you cannot see its particles.\" How would you analyze this statement using the Particle Model?
13
13. Based on the kinetic particle theory, what generally happens to the particles of a substance when its temperature is significantly increased?
14
14. Which statement best explains why gases can be easily compressed compared to liquids and solids?
15
15. A student dropped food coloring into a glass of hot water and a glass of cold water. The coloring spread much faster in the hot water. What does this prove?
16
16. Why does a solid block of wood retain its rigid shape even when transferred from one container to another?
17
17. If an inflated balloon is left inside a hot car during a sunny day, it might pop. How does the Particle Model explain this event?

20
20. If you were to draw arrows on the particles in Box Z (gas) to represent their motion, how should the arrows look compared to Box X (solid)?
21
21. When comparing the spaces between particles in the three states of matter, which of the following statements is highly accurate?
22
22. What happens to the particle arrangement and energy when a solid changes into a liquid, and then into a vapor (gas)?
23
23. A gaseous vapor changes into a liquid and then freezes into a solid. Which of the following is true about the energy during these phase changes?
24
24. How would you explain the melting of ice (solid to liquid) in terms of particle attraction?
25
