Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.84 Ask Testable Questions and Make Hypotheses skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Students notice apple slices with lemon juice turn brown more slowly. Which question and hypothesis pair is best?
AQuestion: How does slice size affect browning? Hypothesis: Lemon juice will change the color because lemons are yellow.
BQuestion: Why are apples healthy? Hypothesis: Lemon juice is sour.
CQuestion: Which apple looks best? Hypothesis: Brown apples are brown.
DQuestion: How does lemon juice coating affect the time it takes apple slices to turn brown? Hypothesis: If apple slices are coated with lemon juice, then they will take longer to turn brown because lemon juice slows the browning reaction.
Solution & Explanation:The best pair keeps the question and hypothesis focused on the same variable and the same measurable result.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Students know rough surfaces create more friction. Which hypothesis is best?
ATile is shiny.
BCarpets are soft.
CIf a toy car rolls onto carpet after leaving a ramp, then it will travel a shorter distance than on tile because carpet creates more friction.
DWhy does friction exist?
Solution & Explanation:This hypothesis uses prior knowledge about friction to predict a measurable difference in travel distance.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
A student compares three slime recipes. Which measurement and graph are best?
AMeasure color with a stopwatch and use a compass.
BMeasure maximum stretch length in centimeters with a ruler and use a bar graph to compare the recipes.
CMeasure nothing and take a photo.
DMeasure how fun the slime feels and use a pie chart.
Solution & Explanation:The best choice uses a numerical measurement and a graph that compares separate recipe groups.
