Purpose: To explore the 3 states of matter and some of their physical characteristics.
Notes will be completed in your WSQ slides for each station - each station should be a new slide.
Title each slide according to the station.
TARGET:
Define matter and the three main states it exists in.
General Procedures:
1. At each station complete the following:
a. Read the learning targets.
b. Complete the activity by following the procedures.
c. Respond to the question, if listed, using data from the activity and your prior knowledge.
After viewing the videos, you may expand on your response.
d. Use BLUE colored font throughout this document to help you/me see your typed work.
e. View the videos that are linked for each station. As you view/listen to the video add a few
notes in the section of each station. You may use bullet points to list the key concepts
from each video. Return to the question at the end of the activity and see if there is
anything you could add to expand on your response.
f. Return to the LEARNING TARGETS after completing each station and check if you have
reached a level of understanding indicating that you have mastered each target.
2. Submit the URL for your work in the Google Form listed in this weeks agenda. Put your copy into
your Science Hapara folder - in the Matter Unit folder.

3. Question: Based on your calculations. what can you determine about the density of substances and
their relationship to volume. (Hint: What did you notice about the volume for these 4 materials?)
I noticed all the cubes were the same height, length, and width therefore they had the same volume. But
since they have different masses their densities are going to be different. In other words they all have
the same length, width, height so they all have the same volume, but they have different weights
therefore different densities.

3. Question: What can you conclude about the density of solution when a solute like sugar, salt, or
copper chloride has been dissolved in it? (HINT: Compare water (solvent) to the others
(solutions).
The water density was higher than the other solutions.

= 3.142cm
radius (r) of the balloon = 4.8 cm
ii.
Volume of a sphere(Balloon) = (4 x x r) / 3
f. Calculate the density of the air in the ballon: D= m / V Set up your equation below. Use
proper units for your final calculation.
Density of the air in the balloon = 0.000431g/cm3 (rounded)
b. Put a small amount of pressure on the inflated balloon. Do you feel some of the air inside it
move? YES or NO (change font color to blue for the one you select)
c. As you continue to add a small amount of pressure to the inflated balloon, do you see areas
of the balloons wall becoming thinner; feeling as though it is about to burst? YES or NO
(change font color to blue for the one you select)
d. Review the image below that shows how the pressure of gas changes from the inflated
balloon to the deflated balloon using arrows inside and outside of the balloon.
e. Draw the balloon after most the air has pushed out of the balloon.
5. Use the diagram above to complete the following. Note: The number of gas particles do not
change in any of the diagram.
a. What happens to the volume as the pressure is increased? T
he particles become more
compact and close together and they can't move around as much.
b. As the volume is decreased, is there an increase or decrease of the pressure of the gas on
the walls of the container? Increase because the particles are getting closer and closer
together causing them to put pressure on one another.
c. Question: Based on the diagram above, Write your version of Boyles Law: How does
pressure affect the airs volume?
The more pressure put on something the tighter and more close together the particles are.

c. Beaker 3 = copper chloride solution (In order to make the copper chloride solution, a
certain amount of copper chloride (solid) was added to the water (liquid) and the contents
were stirred until the copper chloride dissolved.

3. Based on the boiling point temperatures of the three substances what can you conclude about the
boiling point temperature when a solute is dissolved in a solvent to make a solution? In other words,
discuss how the boiling temperature was different for both the salt solution and the copper solution in
comparison to the water.

3. Question: Based on the boiling point temperatures of the three substances what can you conclude
about the boiling point temperature when a solute is dissolved in a solvent to make a solution? In
other words, discuss how the boiling temperature was different for both the salt solution and the
copper solution in comparison to the water.
Waters boiling point was lower than both the Salt Water Solution and the Copper Chloride Solution, the
more chemicals and other materials mixed into the liquid the longer it takes to heat up.

i.
Hot water: 85. C
ii.
Cold water: 22.1 C
c. Take the cap off of a water bottle and insert the funnel.
d. Carefully fill the water bottle half full with hot water and cap it.
e. Place the ice cubes in the bowl and pour the cold water into the bowl.
f. Place the water bottle in the bowl of ice water.
g. Observe what happens. Listen for a pop and observe the water bottle itself. This should
take about 90 seconds.
h. Remove the bottle from the hot water and remove the cap on the bottle.
i. Carefully pour out the hot water and LEAVE the ice water in the bowl.
j. View the video : Crush a Water Bottle: Is that what happened for you?
Yes the water bottle popped and kind of shrunk.

b. Calculate the sum mass of all the objects by adding the 4 measurements together.
Total mass of the 4 objects = 195.3g
c.
Gently place all the items into the glass 400 ml beaker and place it on the digital scale.
Record the mass to the nearest 0.1g.
Total mass of the 4 objects = 209.4 g
3. Question: Compare the two total masses and determine if the Conservation of Mass was observed.
(The digital scale is only accurate to 0.1g so your totals could be off by 0.5g
