|
Students will review terminology including: matter, element, atom, compound, molecule, homogeneous mixture, heterogeneous mixture, solution, mechanical mixture Students will use the particle theory of matter to model matter
Investigation: What's up with matter? Lava Lamp Work on making qualitative and quantitative observations and analysis skills |
|
Classification of Matter |
Other resources for review: Use the following web link |
-use the Kinetic molecular theory of matter to describe states and forms of matter and the form of matter -identify the differences between; elements, compounds, mixtures homogeneous/solutions and heterogeneous/mechanical mixtures |
|
Review physical and chemical properties and changes
Investigation: Slime -Students will determine the physical and chemical changes that occur in the steps of the investigation |
|
Physical and chemical |
Other resources for review
1) Watch the following tutorial on the physical and chemical properties of matter http://chemwiki.ucdavis.edu/Analytical_Chemistry/Chemical_Reactions/Properties_of_Matter
2. Create a definition list of the following terms. physical properties, chemical properties, physical and chemical change, qualitative, quantitative Provide multiple examples for each. Provide definitions for terms such as solubility, flammable, density etc..... as needed. Complete this using one of the following: |
-identify & describe the physical properties of substances -distinguish between physical and chemical properties -distinguish between physical and chemical change -use the particle theory of matter to distinguish between physical and chemical change |
Physical Properties & Physical Changes of Matter
|
Smarter Science Activity. "Let it Snow"
Students will develop a testable question and hypothesis, make observations and answer their question. |
-identify independent and dependant variable -use the particle theory to describe the physical changes being observed -develop a testable question -develop a 3 part hypothesis |
