How Matter ActsThe invisible world we move through and
run into.
“Pre-Test” Draw how you
imagine the particles are arranged in:◦Solids◦Liquids◦Gases
Draw how you imagine the particles are arranged in:◦Elements◦Mixtures◦Compounds
Draw how you imagine the particles of aluminum are arranged.
Draw how you imagine the particles of steel are arranged.
“Pre-Test 2”
Need: large syringe with lock & marshmallow

Group quiz time—why does this work?
Make a Mess
Hot plate, 50 mL Erlenmeyer balloon, flask, water from sink, container of ice water
Results
Erlenmeyer Balloon & Flask
Metal strip, metal ball & ring set-up, bunsen burner, container of cool water
Results
Bending Metal/Ball & Ring
Syringes filled with water connected together with tubing.
Compare the “oomph” needed when the syringes are different sizes.
Why does this occur?
Gases are Squishy; Liquids Aren’t
Aspirator—come up and feel it work, some empty sealable container (plastic or metal)
Results
Sink Crushes a Container
Film container of pennies, clear container of water, flexcam
If I take out half of the pennies, what will the container of pennies do to the water level?
Results:
Penny Challenge
Large syringes with lock, butane containers, muscle.
