Do Now:

Answer questions 1-5 as the Do Now then wait for class to begin.

1

What are 2 things you notice about Model A?

1

What are 5 things you notice about model B?

1

Why do you think Model B is better than Model A?

1

Based on the diagram, what do you think macroscopic and microscopic mean?

1

Based on the diagram, what do you think the "Law of Conservation of Mass" is?

Stop and wait for class to begin!

After the can crush experiment... Draw a model on paper. Be sure to include...
- labels
- key
- macroscopic and particle view
- multiple diagrams at the different stages of the experiment
- a title/headings
- etc.

After you create your model, make a pile of models on the front desk.
