Jason has a glass with a substance in it.  When he sets it on the cement outside the particles were moving in place.  After about ten minutes, Jason returns and the substance's molecules are moving around each other.  What change has occurred?   

Solid to liquid which is melting.

Jason has a glass with a substance in it.  When he sets it on the cement outside the particles were moving around each other.  After about twenty minutes, Jason returns and the substance's molecules moved apart and the substance can not be seen.  What change has occurred?

Describe the freedom of movement of a solid, a liquid, and a gas.  

Solid- molecules move or vibrate in place

Liquid- molecules move around each other

Gas- molecules move apart or away from each other

A  phase change occurs when the ________ increases enough to overcome the attraction between molecules.

kinetic energy

Jason brings a very cold sealed jar of ice outside and places it on the cement.   In a matter of minutes liquid begins running down the outside of the jar.   Where did this liquid come from and what phase change has occurred?

The liquid is from the water vapor that was in the air around the cold jar.   Condensation has occurred.

What happens when kinetic energy is transferred out of a substance?

The molecules of the substance slow down and the substance gets cooler.

Jason placed a piece of wood and a piece of wax in a fire.   They were both in the solid for when he placed them in the fire but they quickly changed form.  The log burned into ashes over time.  While the wax melted.   Did both substances undergo phase changes?  Explain how you know. 

No the candle melting is a phase change because you still have the wax.   However the would burning breaks down the wood into new substances so you no longer have wood.   So the log  burning is not a phase change.
