Please only type the one-word answer, do not answer in sentence form.

Question 36

EXTRA CREDIT: When bubbles form in a liquid, how do we know when it is a chemical change (effervesce) and not just a state of matter change?

Extra points if you can correctly use one of our experiments to support/explain your answer.

Question 37

Sort each property into the correct category. You do not have to drag them, you can just click the property and then click the category.
Corrosive
Tarnish
Solubility
pH Level
Conductivity
Temperature
Boiling Point
Effervesce
Viscosity
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
You normally use your 5 senses to detect...
Chemical properties
Physical properties
Physical changes... (select the one that is true)
cannot be undone
form a new substance
release light, heat, or sound
can alter a current substance's state of matter (solid to liquid for example)
Bread Rising
Using heat to blow glass into a vase
Mixing cookie dough ingredients
Banana peel turning brown
Hand Warmers
Cracking a Glow-stick and making it glow
Sugar dissolving in water
Blow Drying your hair
Wood rotting
PHYSICAL CHANGE
CHEMICAL CHANGE
Any characteristic we can observe or measure without changing the chemical composition of the substance
A. Physical Property
B. Chemical Property
C. Physical Change
D. Chemical Change
Changes to a substance's appearance/form but not its chemical composition
A. Physical Property
B. Chemical Property
C. Physical Change
D. Chemical Change
A characteristic of a substance that can only be seen by changing the chemical composition of a substance
A. Physical Property
B. Chemical Property
C. Physical Change
D. Chemical Change
These changes impact a substance's chemical composition, causing a new substance to be created
A. Physical Property
B. Chemical Property
C. Physical Change
D. Chemical Change
Which of the following is NOT an example of a physical change?
C. Crushing aluminum soda cans
A. Gas burning in a car's engine
D. Water boiling in a pot
B. The metal roof warming and shining in the sunlight
Which of the following is NOT an example of a chemical change?
C. Rust forming on an iron fence
B. A potato acting as an electrical conductor
D. Pancakes cooking on a griddle
A. Gas burning on a stove
One example of physical change is
C. Grass Growing
B. Salt Dissolving
A. Burning Paper
D. Digesting Food
One example of chemical change is
B. Leaves changing color in the fall
A. Heat changing water to steam
D. Alcohol Evaporating
C. Chalk being crushed into a powder
Every chemical change ...
Requires a chemical reaction to occur
Produces a new substance
Results in Physical changes as well
All of the above
Which of the indicators of change is categorized incorrectly?
Aluminum can is crushed
A sample of wood is burned
Water boils and steam is produced
Salt is dissolved into water
The reason for Ooblek's strange behavior is
Cornstarch is an absorbic powder, it has the ability to continue to absorb over time. Moving the Ooblek quickly speeds up the absorption process.
It's a scientific anomaly that scientists can only guess at.
The long, thin cornstarch particles suspended in the water get tangled together when its moved too quickly
The cornstarch is insoluble, causing it to continually try to hold onto its solid properties within the water
Identify whether each experiment was an example of a physical or chemical change by dragging it to the correct category.

Make sure each category is in numerical order so your answers are scored correctly.

_______ (two words)
Question 19
19.
In these types of non-Newtonian fluids, the _______ (type of property). of a liquid will increase when stress or pressure is applied, causing the fluid to behave like a solid.
