TASK 1- It Really Does MATTER
Stare
The First Task
Explain what you know about atoms and molecules.
Identify problems with atom models.
Outline a history about how we learned about matter.
Identify properties of a solid, liquid, and a gas.
Draw a picture showing particle movement in a solid, liquid, & gas.
Compare motions of particles at different temperatures.
Explain diffusion.
Define and show how density is calculated.
Use the following websites to complete the : It Really Does MATTER Worksheet
Put your answers to the questions on the TOP HALF of the Don't Be DENSE worksheet. There are 11 problems and 10 spaces on the worksheet. Add a number 11 at the end of the worksheet to include all the problems. DO NOT put the example problem on your answer key.
On occasions, you are required to find the density of an irregular object. To do this, you will use water displacement. Review this webpage to refresh your memory about water displacement.
