Differentiate between physical and chemical properties and physical and chemical changes of matter.


General Information

Subject Area: Science
Grade: 912
Body of Knowledge: Physical Science
Standard: Matter -

A. A working definition of matter is that it takes up space, has mass, and has measurable properties. Matter is comprised of atomic, subatomic, and elementary particles.

B. Electrons are key to defining chemical and some physical properties, reactivity, and molecular structures. Repeating (periodic) patterns of physical and chemical properties occur among elements that define groups of elements with similar properties. The periodic table displays the repeating patterns, which are related to the atom's outermost electrons. Atoms bond with each other to form compounds.

C. In a chemical reaction, one or more reactants are transformed into one or more new products. Many factors shape the nature of products and the rates of reaction.

D. Carbon-based compounds are building-blocks of known life forms on earth and numerous useful natural and synthetic products.

Lesson Plans

Name Description
Baked Goods: Types of Leavening Agents

Students will be presented with various chemical, physical, and organic leavening agents used in baking. They will predict, observe, compare, then explain the reactions chemical, physical, and organic leaveners have when introduced to a variety of ingredients/reactants.

Solutions are Everywhere

Students will look at similar solutes and create solutions with them. They will compare and contrast them and record their observations.

Precipitate Lab

Students will make chalk by reacting calcium chloride with sodium bicarbonate. They will be able to watch a precipitate being formed. This lab will help them understand the difference between a precipitate and a filtrate and understand what reaction type the reaction is-double displacement. In the next class period, the precipitate will be dry and the students can use the chalk they made and draw with it.

Dollars for Density

This is a guided inquiry activity in which students use simple lab procedures and discussions to develop and apply the concept of density. Students collect and graph data which they use to explore the relationship between mass and volume. Then students use their graph, rather than a memorized formula, to identify the unknown substance.

Physical and Chemical Changes Observed in Pancakes

Students will observe the physical and chemical changes that occur during pancake preparation while following the scientific method.

Let's Get Physical

The following lesson provides instruction and activities that introduce the physical properties and physical changes of matter. The guided practice gives students the opportunity to engage in analyzing real world examples and their unique physical properties. Students will experience a interactive virtual density lab. The culminating activity for "Let's Get Physical" will be a creative collaborate activity, in which students will have to work together to create a game, chidren's book, song or skit to introduce the 7 physical properties of matter to elementary aged students.

Gluva-Glop

This is a rework of the lab creating "Silly Putty" from a traditional cookbook lab to an inquiry based lesson. A situational story is read to the class and students are then challenged to create the "lost" substance. Students are provided the raw materials but not given exact amounts. Through multiple trials, students experiment with ways to come up with a sample that closely resembles the one provided at the beginning of the lesson.

BIOSCOPES Summer Institute 2013 - Solutions

This lesson is designed to be part of a sequence of lessons. It follows CPALMS Resource #52705 "BIOSCOPES Summer Institute 2013 - States of Matter" and precedes CPALMS Resource #52961 "BIOSCOPES Summer Institute 2013 - Atomic Models." The lesson employs a predict, observe, explain approach along with inquiry-based activities to enhance student understanding of properties aqueous solutions in terms of the kinetic molecular theory and intermolecular forces.

Classifying the Universe: What is matter and how do we as scientists categorize it?

This is a hands-on lesson teaching what matter is and the differences between pure substances (elements and compounds) and mixtures (heterogeneous and homogeneous).

My 2 Cents

Students predict how the mass of a penny changes over time, devise a method to test their prediction, collect/analyze data and determine the composition of a penny based on physical properties and calculations. This student-centered activity allows freedom from mistakes as they explore their learning in a supportive environment.

SMALL: Shape Memory Alloy Lab

Shape Memory Alloys are metals that can return to or 'remember' their original shape. They are a cutting edge application for Chemistry, Physics, and Integrated Science. The activities in this lesson work well for the study of forces, Newton's Laws, and electricity in physics. They also lend themselves well to crystalline structures, heat of reaction, and bonding in chemistry. In addition, students could study applications for the materials in the medical and space industries.

Teaching Idea

Name Description
Recognizing Chemical Reactions This resource describes activity that will allow students to observe the effects of a chemical change as opposed to a physical change. It also gives them the opportunity to observe conservation of matter by modeling chemical equations. The main learning objective is the recognition that all chemical reactions create new molecules and that in a chemical reaction the original atoms get rearranged, bonding together in different ways.
