Grade 10 Scientific Methods and Applications
Robbie wants to know if a ring is made of real gold. First, he drops the ring into a cylinder with water and measures how much the water rises. Then, he places the ring on a balance and records the result. Which scenario most likely explains how Robbie is trying to find out if the ring is real gold?
  1. He has found the mass and weight. He will now compare them to Earth's gravity to see if it matches the weight and mass of gold.
  2. He is going to attach the ring to wires to measure its conductivity after being in water and divide that by its mass.
  3. He found that the ring did not float, so he is finding its mass to see if it is more dense than water. If it is, he knows it is gold.
  4. He found the volume and mass and is now going to multiply them to find the specific atomic mass.
  5. He has measured the volume and mass. He will now divide the mass by the volume to see if the value matches the density of gold.

  3. where it is produced
  4. how to use it properly
Grade 10 Scientific Method
When designing a scientific investigation, what should be identified first?
  1. lab equipment
  2. appropriate sample size
  3. useful analysis software
  4. testable hypothesis
Grade 10 Scientific Method
During an experiment, which factor is observed and measured?
  1. dependent variable
  2. independent variable

  4. hypothesis
Grade 10 Scientific Method
A body of techniques used to investigate natural phenomena is the
  1. scientific method.
  2. prediction.
  3. experiment.
