Lesson:

Slant: physical changes to matter

1. physical change: any change which alters the form or appearance of matter but does not change its identity

   • changes in

     • size or shape

     • temperature

     • shape

     • state

2. changes in state occur when thermal energy is added or taken away

   • melting/freezing

   • boiling/condensation

   • sublimation/deposition

3. dissolving is a physical change

   • a sample of matter with breaks up into its individual particles and mixes evenly with another substance

4. mass is always conserved during physical changes

Conservation of Mass

1. Mass is conserved during any physical or chemical change

   • this assumes the change occurs in a closed system

   • matter cannot enter or leave

   • all the same particles are present

   • only the arrangement, location, or motion of the particles can change.

2. Time to complete lesson review.

• Review and go over.

Slant: Displacement Methods for Finding Volume

1. Displacement - measuring the change in water volume to find the volume of an object submerged in it

   • used for irregularly shaped objects

2. select a graduated cylinder large enough to fit the object

   • a beaker is a second best option

3. fill the graduated cylinder with enough water to cover the object

4. carefully record the volume of water

   • Vi - Initial Volume (initial means beginning)

5. Place the object in the G.C. and submerge it

   • Use the “electric Slide” not the “bombs away” method

   • splashing will hurt accuracy

6. Record the final volume

   • Vf - final volume

7. The volume of the object (Vo) is calculated with the following formula:

   • Vo = Vf - Vi

8. Solve using FDSS format

Complete this displacement worksheet for practice:
