Study Notes

Chemical Properties and Change

A chemical property describes a substance's ability to undergo changes in its composition to form new substances.
Examples include flammability (wood), combustibility (gasoline), corrosiveness (acids), and reactions with acids (certain metals) or rusting (iron).

Physical Properties Activity

The activity involved identifying physical properties (color, viscosity, clarity, texture, smell, luster, malleability, and ductility) of various substances (like glycerol, sulfur, carbon, copper wire, sugar, pancake mix, dish soap, mouthwash, wax).
Each object was identified by its physical properties.

Types of Chemical Changes

A new color appearing, heat or light given off, bubbles of gas forming (e.g., when not heated), formation of a precipitate (a solid from mixing liquids), and difficulty reversing the change are all signs of a chemical change.

Demonstrations (Demos)

Demonstrations involved different substances (copper sulfate, lead nitrate, potassium iodide, neon gas, magnesium metal, hydrochloric acid) and observations like color changes, formation of solids (precipitates), and the production of gases.
These activities helped in determining whether changes were physical or chemical.
Evidence for chemical changes included color change, formation of new substances, evolution of gas (formation of bubbles) and difficulty reversing changes.

Homework

Students were assigned homework, including questions from page 186, #1, 3, 4, 6, and 7.

Fun Facts

10 fun facts, including observations on things like the impossibility of washing eyes with soap, breathing through the nose with the tongue out.
