Subjects : cset, science
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.

13. Atmospheric shell above the troposphere; extends from 6 to 30 miles above the earth's surface






14. Electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom in a sort of fuzzy shell. Each 'shell' is a regular and exact distance from the nucleus. An electron has a particular and exact amount of energy while it's in a particular shell

23. Wind






24. Glows in the earths atmosphere when it is accelerated down by gravity






25. A single proton has what electrical charge






26. In order to measure the density of an object - you need to know it's mass and volume. Density = Mass/Volume. For nonregular shapes like rocks - you would find the volume by filling a beaker with water to a given level - add the rock and see where the






27. Based on the number of protons in the nucleus






28. Sediment deposited from melting glacial ice
