Our class has been learning about different states of matter and how matter can change either physically or chemically. We have been doing a variety of experiments in class to demonstrate how these changes happen in real life.
Here we are experimenting with liquids and making them race!. We were experimenting to see if each liquid is the same or whether the thickness or texture would affect how the liquid moves. We came to the conclusion that clearer, lighter liquids like water move and change shape more quickly than thicker liquids like syrup or ketchup.
Here we are mixing solids and liquids to create a gas and to create a chemical reaction. When we mixed the baking soda and the vinegar it created a gas and filled the balloon with air! The children were excited to see this chemical change right before their eyes!
