Salt Volcanoes

At the end of last week we read over a chapter about Chemistry with lots of good vocabulary. They highlighted key terms and saved it in their notes. Here is a link to the reading: What is Matter?




We did a simple investigation with oil, water, food coloring and salt today. It got us to think about key terms like density, solubility, solutions, solvents, solutes, heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures, adhesion, and immiscibility. The emphasis was on observations and explanations. New homework. Read handout on properties of matter and answer questions.
New Homework: Read Chapter, Properties of Matter pages 53-60, and answer questions 1,4,6 page 56 and questions 1,3,6 page 60. Due Friday, January 18th.
Short Quiz on Vocabulary on Thursday, January 17th.
