This document discusses states of matter and includes: 1. A table listing the melting points and boiling points of copper, mercury, and oxygen. 2. Questions about identifying materials based on their physical properties like freezing/melting points. 3. Suggestions for animating particle models of matter changing state, such as water freezing. 4. Ideas for extending the learning with video animations or designing a thermometer.

7. A certain material has a normal freezing point of 10C and a normal boiling
point of 70C. What state is the material in at room temperature (about
22C)? Explain your answer.
8. The normal boiling point of water is 100C and the normal boiling point of
ethanol is 78.5C. These two liquids are soluble in each other. What technique
would you use to separate these two liquids from the solution?
9. A certain material is white in the solid phase and clear (transparent) in the liquid
phase. It has a normal melting point of 146C. Which of the following materials
could this be: water, sugar, or carbon dioxide? Explain your choice. (Hint: You
will have to base your argument on concepts you have learned and observations
made in this activity, as well as common sense.)

Preparing for the Chapter Challenge


1. Make an animation of 10 water
particles changing from the solid state
at 0C to the liquid state at 0C.

2. Animate the change of state of


10 dry-ice particles placed at room
temperature.

Inquiring Further
1. Video animation
Making the leap from flipbook
animation to video animation is not
difficult. You will need access to a video
camera that can record one frame at a
time. Set the video camera so that it can
record an image on a flat table or desk.
To animate the process you can either
record a series of drawings on paper,
putting one after another on the table
and taking a frame or two of
each image.

Go to the Internet and see if you can


find animations on the Internet. You
might find a computer helpful in
making the drawings or you could
investigate using animation software
to make more elaborate animations.
2. Design a thermometer
Use what you learned in this activity to
design a thermometer that you could
use to measure temperature. If your
teacher approves your design, try out
your thermometer.
