3. 1.Predict what will happen when the solid is dropped into the liquid. a) the solid will sink in the liquid b) the solid will float on the liquid 2.After viewing video describe what you observe happening? a) the solid sank in the liquid b) the solid floats on the liquid This is an example of adding a solid alcohol to its liquid.

4. 3. Which of the following student statements is the best atomic/molecular level explanation for what you observed happening in the video? A) The liquid has the lowest density because the molecules are not as closely compacted and are free to move around. B) The liquid has the lowest density because there is more empty space (or air-filled space) between molecules than in the solid. The open space decreases the density because it is lighter than the molecules. C) The liquid has a lower density. Density = mass/volume and the solid has a greater mass because it has more particles per unit volume. Hence, the density of the solid would be greater than the liquid. D) The atoms and molecules in the solid phase are clearly more dense. E) Solid molecules weigh less than liquid molecules for a pure substance. F) Liquid molecules weigh less than solid molecules for a pure substance G) The liquid would have a lower density since its shape but not volume can be changed.
