Indigenous Connections
Name 3 natural materials used by First Nations, Métis, and Inuit to build.
Birch bark
Animal hides
Plants
What are the three main states of matter?
Solids, Liquids, and Gases
What is melting and what is freezing?
Melting is a change of state from solid to liquid, and freezing is a change of state from liquid to solid.
True or False: Water freezes at the same temperature as it melts.
True
Describe how particles look and behave in a solid.
Particles vibrate at a slower rate and are packed tightly together.
Explain 2 ways animals were used to make materials in Indigenous communities.
Hides for drums and tipis, bones for tools
Which state of matter:
-has a definite shape
-has a definite volume
-doesn't flow
-is a fixed shape
Solid
What is the boiling point of water?
100 Degrees celsius
How does knowing the melting/freezing and boiling points of substances help you in your daily life?
Some examples:
-It will help with cooking
-I can make sure I don't get burned if water is too hot
Describe how particles look in a liquid.
Particles flow and move around one another and are close together, but not packed super tight.
What is a natural material?
Is anything that occurs naturally in nature.
Which state of matter:
-flows easily
-has a definite volume
-does not have a definite shape
Liquid
What is evaporation?
A change of state from liquid to gas
What is the temperature at which a substance changes from solid to liquid called?
Melting point
Describe how the particles in a gas behave and look.
The particles in a gas are vibrating and moving super fast and away from one another.
What is a processed material?
Is something from nature that people have changed, mixed, or cooked, to make it into something new and useful.
Which state of matter:
-flows easily
-expands to the size of the container it is in
-has no definite shape
-has no definite volume
gas
What is condensation?
A change of state from gas to liquid
What is the temperature at which a substance changes from liquid to solid called?
The freezing point
What is a non-Newtonian fluid?
A substance that doesn't behave like a regular liquid. (Doesn't follow Newton's law of viscosity). When a pressure or force is applied to it, the substance behaves like a solid.
Explain how a natural material is processed with a specific example.
Give as example of a solid, liquid, and a gas.
rocks, water, and air
What is both the melting and freezing point of water?
0 Degrees Celsius
What is the temperature at which a substance changes from liquid to gas called?
The boiling point
Give an example of a non-Newtonian fluid
Oobleck and quicksand
