Anyone remember this game? It was a fairly early educational series that made being smart "cool". Anywho, I was cleaning out the closet and found some cards, with questions I disagree with. What's your take?
True or false? Adding salt to a pot of water makes it reach the boiling point faster. True
Erm, adding solutes does affect the boiling/freeezing point, but by making them higher/lower respectively. Which would technically make it reach the BP later, right?
In which of these states is matter heaviest: solid, liquid or gas? Solid
Weight is determined by mass*gravity. In transition between phases, matter is not lost. So if both matter and gravity are constants, then so is weight.
