    A Drop S Journey Answers

    The document discusses the journey of a water droplet through its various state changes from liquid to gas to solid and back to liquid again. It describes how the water droplet starts as liquid water on the ocean surface, gains heat energy from the sun to evaporate into a gas, rises into the air as water vapor, cools and condenses to form clouds, falls as precipitation onto mountains where it freezes into ice, and finally melts back into liquid water that trickles down the mountain.

    6. Read the following sentences: And as it gets colder, the droplet of water loses more and more of its
    energy. It stops bouncing until it slows down dramatically and collides with other drops of water.
    What does the word dramatically tell us about the way the water droplet slows down?
    A
    B
    C
    D

    It takes a long time for the water droplet to slow down.


    The water droplet doesnt slow down at all.
    The water droplet barely slows down.
    The water droplet slows down a lot.

    7. Choose the answer that best completes the sentence below.


    The crystallized water droplet must melt __________ it can trickle down the mountain.
    A
    B
    C
    D

    although
    after
    before
    never

    8. How does the water droplet change throughout the passage?


    Suggested answer: Answers may vary, but students should indicate that the water droplet changes
    states. More detailed responses could explain that the water droplet changes from liquid to gas, from gas
    to ice, and back to liquid again.

    9. The author writes that the water droplet has evaporated. What does evaporated mean?
    Suggested answer: The water droplet has gained enough heat to transform from a liquid to a gas.

    10. How does heat affect a water droplets state of matter? Support your answer with evidence from the
    passage.
    Suggested answer: Heat helps determine a water droplets state of matter. For example, an increase in
    heat can cause a drop of water to turn into a gas.
