Keisha and her younger sister are helping their mom to make dinner. Keisha’s mom asks her to get the flour so that she can make gravy. When Keisha looks in the cabinet, she sees two clear containers with white powders. Her mom says one is baking soda and one is flour, but they aren’t labeled. She needs to figure out which one is flour.
Keisha remembers an experiment she did in her science class about identifying different powders. She gets her science notebook, and turns to her data:
(Use this data table as evidence to answer Question 8 and 9)
Keisha decides to mix both of the unlabeled powders into water and observe what happens. She puts 10 grams of each powder into two different cups. Each cup contains 100 grams of water. She stirs each mixture for 60 seconds.

Why did Keisha choose to use the property of solubility in water, and not the particle size or color to identify the two powders? (4 pts)
Sentence starters:
Claim: Keisha used the solubility because _________________
Evidence: In the data table of powder properties, it shows _________________
Reasoning (Explanation): Explain your claim (answer) for why Keisha used the property of solubility.

After Keisha mixed Powder A with water, her little sister said, “Wow! The powder just disappeared! It’s totally gone!” Which statement would best explain what really happened to the powder? (2 pts)
A) Powder A reacts with water to make a brand new substance.
B) Powder A broke down into smaller and smaller particles until it did disappear completely from the water.
C) Powder A breaks down into smaller particles that are mixed evenly throughout the water.
D) Powder A molecules changes to a colorless solid when it becomes wet.

Question 11
11.
Why is the baking soda soluble in water and the flour is not? (2 pts)
A) The baking soda particles are smaller than the flour particles, so they fit between the water better.
B) The baking soda molecules are attracted to the water molecules, and the flour molecules are not.
C) Keisha probably mixed the baking soda for a longer time than she mixed the flour.
D) Keisha probably used more flour and less baking soda in her experiment.
Keisha’s sister is still having difficulty understanding what is happening, so she draws two models to explain what happened at the nanoscale level.

After figuring out which powder is flour, Keisha’s mom makes gravy. Keisha notices that two of the ingredients her mom uses are water and chicken fat. When the water and chicken fat are mixed together, the mixture separates into layers. When Keisha’s mom adds gelatin to the mixture and stirs, the gravy stays mixed.
Keisha draws a diagram of the mixture before and after adding the gelatin in her notebook.

Question 14
14.
Keisha’s sister drew a model of the water, fat and gelatin molecules in the gravy. Is her model accurate? If not, why not? (2 pts)
A) It is accurate because it shows the water and fat molecules attracted to the gelatin molecule.
B) It is not accurate because it shows water and fat molecules attracted to each other.
C) It is not accurate because it shows gelatin molecules attracted to each other.
D) It is not accurate because it shows the molecules mixed instead of separated.
