Matter Chemical Change

Vocabulary

100

The smallest component of matter that maintains its properties.

Atom

200

The three components of an atom.

Proton, Neutron, Electron

300

Type of change where a new substance is created.

What is a CHEMICAL CHANGE?

400

A type of change where the substance stays the same, but size and shape may change.

What is a PHYSICAL CHANGE?

500

The ONLY sub-atomic particle that transfers between atoms during a chemical reaction.

Electrons

Physical Change/Chemical Change

100

Is a melted popsicle an example of a physical or chemical change?

Physical. You can melt and refreeze a popsicle and it will still be a popsicle.

200

Is vinegar and baking soda an example of a physical or chemical change?

Chemical Change. When you mix the two, bubbles form, which indicates a chemical change as taken place.

300

A Metal Rusting after being left outside. Physical or Chemical Change?

Chemical change. The rust is a new substance as we see a change in colour.

400

Lemonade crystals being dissolved in water. Physical or Chemical?

Physical. The sugar and water are still both present, just mixed together.

500

Bonus Challenge: Is the water cycle an example of a physical or chemical change?

What is YES, it is a physical change, because water changes from a liquid/solid when it precipitates, to a gas when it evaporates, then forms back into a liquid when it condensates. Then the process repeats again with the same substance, WATER!

Chemical Families
