Science+Assignment

You'll need your SN, Textbook and pencil.

Today, we reviewed a property of matter that you had last year: the state it is in.


 * Add "State" to your list of Properties of Matter in your SN.

Last year you should have learned that matter can exist in one of 3 states: solid, liquid, or gas.

There is also another state, plasma, which we'll talk about later.


 * Let's review solids, liquids, and gases. Go to [|this website.]
 * Click on solid, then liquid, then gas.

Notice how the particles (atoms) inside of each is different.


 * In your SN, draw 3 circles. Label one "solid", "liquid", and "gas".
 * In the circle, draw the particles for each, using the picture on the website.

Next, get your textbook. Read page 278.

On the next clean page in your SN, draw a chart like this:



After you've read page 278, use the info to fill in your chart. I will check it when you get back.

The last thing we did was a foldable. I will do that with you when you get back.
