Modified Pretest for The Water Cycle and Matter

Master the Water Cycle & States of Matter!

Label the diagram of the water cycle. condensationprecipitationAccumulationTranspirationevaporation evaporation condensation precipitation Transpiration Accumulation Water in its solid form is called ice. Water held in rocks and soil below the ground is called groundwater. When water evaporates it changes into water vapor. Small particles and different gases, including water vapor, make up the atmosphere. The sunpowers the water cycle. When the sun warms water, it evaporates. When the droplets are cool enough, they condenseinto clouds. Precipitation returns the water to the surface of the earth. The water accumulates in oceans, lakes, and rivers. This starts the water cycle over again. Name three types of precipitation. Water can be found in three different states of matter. What are they? Nick placed a glass of juice in the freezer and left it there overnight. What will happen to the juice? The juice will melt The juice will turn from a liquid to a solid How can you tell that a pencil is made up of matter? It lets you write stories It has mass and takes up space Lisa found drops of water condensing on leaves in her garden early in the morning. What causes condensation to form? A decrease in air temperature An increase in air temperature Adam sets a dish of water on a heater. The next day, Adam notices that the water evaporated. How has the water changed? From a gas to a liquid From a liquid to a gas Which is true about air? It has mass and takes up space It cannot be kept in a container Why is an ice cube a solid? It feels cold It keeps its shape What change happens when ice melts? It takes the shape of the glass It becomes gas
