Physical Change with Matter and Heat
Students will identify different states of matter focusing on liquid changing to a solid and make observations of energy/heat loss during a physical change in matter.
Summary
SEEd 5.2.4 Use mathematics and computational thinking to provide evidence that regardless of the type of change that occurs when heating, cooling, or combining substances, the total weight of matter is conserved. Examples could include melting an ice cube, dissolving salt in water, and combining baking soda and vinegar in a closed bag. (PS1.A, PS1.B)
Lesson Performance Expectations
- Identify different states of matter focusing on liquid changing to a solid.
- Identify the conservation of mass with phase change.
- Make observations of energy/heat loss when during a physical change in matter.
