The Balloon experiment and the ice cream experiment demonstrates what type of change?

Balloon experiment  = Chemical Change
ice cream experiment = Physical Change

What is matter?

Matter is anything that takes up space and creates energy.

200

What kind of change is a paper being ripped?

A physical change.

200

What kind of change is a brownie batter being baked?

A chemical change.

What happened in the balloon experiment? 

The balloon was filled with baking soda, the bottle was  filled with vinegar. When the baking soda mix with the vinegar it created carbon dioxide gas that filled up the balloon.

300

What are particles?

Particles are small compounds that make up matter.

300

What is the difference between a physical and chemical change?

A chemical change is irreversible, while a physical change is reversible.

300

The _____________the temperature the faster it will evaporate.

warmer

300

What happened in the ice cream experiment?

The bag with cream, vanilla and sugar were placed in another bag filled with ice and salt. Then, shake them to change the liquid ingredients into solid ice cream.

400

What particles move the fastest, solid, liquid, or gas? Why?

Gas because the particles do not stay in one space.

400

What is evaporation? Give an example.

Evaporation is when a liquid turns into a gas.

400

How does condensation work?

Condensation occurs when water is evaporated and condenses into water droplets. The droplets from the evaporation collect on a cold surface.

400

What are the types of changes that took place in the 2 experiments?

Chemical Change, Evaporation, and Freezing.

500

What do the particles look like in a solid, liquid and gas?

In a solid they are still and in neat rows, in liquid they are further apart and loose, and in a gas they are very far apart.

500

What is sublimation?

Sublimation is the process of a solid turning directly into a gas.

500

What is an example of sublimation?

Dry ice turning into carbon dioxide. Ice crystals evaporate.

500

What is the purpose of the salt when making ice cream?

It lowers the freezing point of the ice cubes and therefore makes them much colder which helps tur the ingredients into ice cream.
