States of Matter
The state of matter where the particles are the closest together
What is a solid
An educated guess to a problem
What is a hypothesis
Hot chocolate powder is this state of matter when it is in the packaging
What is solid
When we add hot water it dissolves into the liquid and becomes a liquid too!
The place garbage goes after we put it in the garbage can in class
What is the landfill
What can we use to measure how long something is?
Measuring tape
Ruler
Meter Stick
The state of matter that has the furthest apart and fastest moving particles
What is a gas
A planned way to solve a problem or what you will do to test a hypothesis
What is an Experiment
Ice that is heated up will change into what state of matter
What is liquid and/or gas
Food scraps go here when we put them into a green bin
What is the compost facility
What do we use to measure how much something weighs?
A scale
An example of something changing from one state of matter to another
What is ice (water freezing: liquid to solid)
What is steam (boiling: liquid to gas)
Collecting information from an experiment
What is an Observation
The cream mixture when we first added it and mixed it in the bag was in what state of matter
What is a liquid mixture with dissolved sugar
Items like dead batteries, broken lightbulbs, and chemicals go here
What is Eco Station for hazardous waste
What unit do we use to measure weight?
Grams (g) or kilograms (kg)
In everyday life we might also use:
Pounds (lbs)
The state of matter that takes the shape of the container that they are in
What are gases
What you might do an experiment to find the answer to
What is a problem/question
The problem to the ice cream experiment
How can we make a delicious treat using liquid cream?
Conclusion: By changing the particle state of matter of the cream mixture
Communities must decide how to manage their waste. Some examples of what to do with garbage are:
Landfills (burying garbage)
Burning garbage
Reusing
Recycling
Composting
What units do we use to measure distance
The states of matter that can flow (pour out of a cup)
What are liquids and gases
What is a conclusion
Shaking up our cream mixture quickly caused what particles to be added into the cream mixture?
What are air particles
We could see some bubbles and it tasted/felt more fluffy
Waste management causes these types of pollution in the environment
What is air pollution (burning garbage, gas from decomposing garbage)
What is water pollution (leakage from landfills or litter or liquid waste)
What is soil pollution
What kind of measurement would we use to measure the distance from school to home?
