Grade 5 Science · Matter and Its Properties
Build Grade 5 Science skills with five 10-question practice tests on states of matter, observable properties, changes, measurement, mixtures, and conservation of matter.
These Grade 5 Science practice tests help students describe matter using observations and measurements. Students identify states of matter, distinguish physical and chemical properties, explain physical and chemical changes, use measurement tools, classify mixtures, and apply conservation of matter.
Read each situation carefully and focus on the evidence. Ask whether the material keeps its identity, whether a new substance forms, which measurement is needed, and which observable property supports the conclusion.

Correct answer: A
The correct answer is The powder is white and has a fine texture..
Color and texture are descriptive observations rather than measurements with numbers.
Please select an answer first.
Correct answer: B
The correct answer is Repeating helps check consistency and makes the result more reliable..
Repeated measurements can reveal unusual results and increase confidence in the data.
Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space, including solids, liquids, and gases.
A physical change changes a material’s form or state, while a chemical change forms one or more new substances.
