Chemistry & Phase Changes

We have been spending the last three days looking at how molecules behave when energy (heat) is either added or removed. We have looked at the three main states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) and how phase changes take place at specific temperatures. Most of the students got text books for reading assignments. Our first homework is due on Friday, January 7th. To read Chapter 2.2 and answer questions 4, 6, and 8 (for fun). We had a sub on Weds. when I had to go home with a sick child and they looked at how different elements are used in everyday objects.
