14. Matter and Energy John Dalton’s wild explanation. All matter is composed of tiny, moving particles called atoms.

15. Matter and Energy All matter is made of atoms, which are far too small to see directly through an ordinary microscope.

21. Matter and Energy Systematic Observations We will place balloon over a flask of dry ice and a flask of water ice. What do you think will happen in each case? Hypothesis: If we….then…. DATA: Record your observations in your notebook. Claims and Evidence: Do you want to revise or add to your claims and evidence?

22. Matter and Energy Systematic Observation Focus Question: What do we want to find out about dry ice? Write your own question here.

23. Exploring Dry Ice Make your own “discoveries” about dry ice Make your own “discoveries” about dry ice You MUST come up with an explanation for your discoveries. You MUST come up with an explanation for your discoveries. Record observations and explanations Record observations and explanations

24. Matter and Energy Dry Ice Science Notebook Prediction: I think…because… Planning: How will you organize your research? Include what you did and what you observed. Data: Record your research using the method you selected above.

25. Matter and Energy Dry Ice Science Notebook Claims and Evidence: Select 4 observations, write claims and evidence. ObservationsClaimsEvidence 1. 2. 3. 4.

26. Matter and Energy Models Create your own model. Using the flash cards on your table, create your own model of what you see happening. Refer to your notes and your claims and evidence. Using the flash cards on your table, create your own model of what you see happening. Refer to your notes and your claims and evidence. When complete, place your card face down on the center of the table. When complete, place your card face down on the center of the table.

28. Matter and Energy What’s the Matter? PREDICTION/HYPOTHESIS: Flask with balloon: If we add dry ice to the flask with the balloon, then the mass of the system will (increase, decrease, or stay the same) because…. Flask without balloon: If we add dry ice to the flask without the balloon, then the mass of this system will (increase, decrease, or stay the same) because…

29. Matter and Energy What’s the Matter? DATA: Record mass and change in mass plus your observations for each system in your notebook.
