1. How does the burning of fossil fuels contribute to global warming?

1. It releases carbon dioxide (CO₂), a greenhouse gas, into the atmosphere.

2. It traps heat from the sun, raising Earth’s average temperature.
3. It increases methane and nitrous oxide, which are stronger greenhouse
gases.
4. It causes air pollution that worsens the greenhouse effect.
5. It destroys forests (through mining and drilling), reducing carbon absorption.
6. It leads to more energy demand, increasing the cycle of emissions.

2. How can the ozone layer protect living things from ultraviolet radiation
coming from the sun?

1. It absorbs harmful ultraviolet (UV-B) rays before they reach Earth.

2. It prevents skin cancer and sunburn in humans.
3. It protects eyes from cataracts and blindness.
4. It shields crops and plants from UV damage.
5. It helps aquatic life survive by protecting plankton at the ocean surface.
6. It keeps ecosystems balanced by blocking excessive solar radiation.

3. How can soil pollution lead to underground water pollution?

1. Toxic chemicals from soil seep into groundwater.

2. Fertilizers and pesticides are carried down by rain into aquifers.
3. Waste dumped on land dissolves and contaminates underground water.
4. Leaking landfills release harmful substances into soil and then groundwater.
5. Oil spills on land seep through soil layers and pollute underground water.
6. Heavy metals (like lead and mercury) in soil spread into underground water
sources.

4–5. How can the harmful effects of pollutions to the environment and its
inhabitants be prevented? Write two ways.

1. Planting more trees to absorb carbon dioxide.

2. Using renewable energy sources like solar and wind.
3. Practicing proper waste segregation and recycling.
4. Enforcing stricter environmental laws and penalties.
5. Promoting public awareness and education on pollution.
6. Reducing use of plastics and harmful chemicals.

1. How do physical change and chemical change differ based on their
pieces of evidence?
1. Physical changes only change how things look, but chemical changes
make new stuff.
2. In physical changes, it's still the same thing, but chemical changes
create something different.
3. Physical changes are like melting ice, while chemical changes are like
baking a cake.
4. You can easily change a physical change back, but chemical changes
are harder to reverse.
5. Physical changes don't make new smells, but chemical changes often
do.
6. Physical changes are just a new shape, but chemical changes make
new colors too.

2. How is heat in physical change different from heat in chemical

change?
1. Heat in physical change melts ice, but in chemical change, it can start a
fire.
2. Physical changes use heat to change how it looks, but chemical
changes use heat to make something new.
3. Heat in physical changes might boil water, while heat in chemical
changes can cook food.
4. When heat causes a physical change, it just gets warmer, but in
chemical changes, it might explode.
5. Heat helps physical changes change the state, but it helps chemical
changes change the stuff.
6. Physical changes use heat to change the outside, but chemical changes
use heat to change the inside.

3. How does the availability of oxygen promote chemical change?

Explain.
1. Oxygen helps things burn, which is a chemical change.
2. Oxygen is in the air and helps make new things through chemical
changes.
3. Oxygen makes rust on metal, which is a chemical change.
4. Oxygen is needed for some chemical changes, like when food gets old.
5. Oxygen helps chemical changes happen faster.
6. Oxygen is like a helper for chemical changes, making them work better.
4. Identify one human activity that degrades the environment. How
can this activity lead to many types of pollution?
1. Cars make air pollution, which is bad for breathing and the environment.
2. Factories make smoke, which pollutes the air and makes it hard to see.
3. Trash in the ocean makes the water dirty and hurts the animals.
4. Cutting down trees takes away homes for animals and makes the air
worse.
5. Using too much plastic makes a lot of trash that pollutes the land and
water.
6. Spraying chemicals can poison the soil and water, hurting plants and
animals.

5. Sustainability means using currently available resources without

consuming the resources intended for the future. How do the 5 Rs of
waste management promote sustainability?
1. The 5 Rs help us use less stuff, which saves resources for the future.
2. By reusing things, we don't need to make as much new stuff, saving
resources.
3. Recycling turns old things into new things, so we don't use up new
resources.
4. Repairing things means they last longer, so we don't need to buy new
ones as often.
5. The 5 Rs help us not waste anything, so we have more for the future.
6. The 5 Rs are a way to help the Earth and make sure we have enough
for everyone later on.

1. Which between the physical and chemical change is exhibited by

exploding fireworks?
1. Fireworks exploding is a chemical change because they burn.
2. Exploding fireworks show a chemical change because they make new
things.
3. It's a chemical change when fireworks explode because they can't go
back to how they were.
4. Fireworks are a chemical change because they make light and heat.
5. When fireworks explode, it's a chemical change because they change
into smoke and gas.
6. Fireworks exploding is like a chemical change because they make a big,
colorful reaction.

2. What evidence of physical or chemical change supports your

previous answer? Explain.
1. We know it's a chemical change because fireworks make light.
2. Fireworks make smoke, which means it's a chemical change.
3. The heat from fireworks shows it's a chemical change.
4. New gases are made when fireworks explode, so it's a chemical
change.
5. The colors change in fireworks, which means it's a chemical change.
6. Fireworks make a loud noise, which is a sign of a chemical change.

3. Studies suggest that exploding fireworks emit air-borne fine

particulates, nitrogen oxide, and sulfur dioxide. How do these
materials pose a threat to the environment? Explain.
1. Fireworks make air pollution, which is bad for our lungs.
2. The smoke from fireworks can hurt plants and animals.
3. Fireworks make the air dirty, which is bad for the environment.
4. The chemicals from fireworks can make it hard to breathe.
5. Fireworks can cause pollution that stays in the air for a long time.
6. The stuff from fireworks can make the sky look hazy and unhealthy.
