GLCEs
 P.PM.01.21 Demonstrate that water as a solid keeps its
  own shape (ice).
 P.PM.01.22 Demonstrate that water as a liquid takes on
  the shape of various containers.
 P.PM.04.23 Compare and contrast the states (solids,
  liquids, gases) of matter.
 P.CM.06.11 Describe and illustrate changes in state, in
  terms of the arrangement and relative motion of the
  atoms or molecules.
 P.CM.06.12 Explain how mass is conserved as it changes
  from state to state in a closed system.
 P.PM.07.23 Illustrate the structure of molecules using
  models or drawings (water, carbon dioxide, salt).
HSSCEs: Chemistry
PREREQUISITES

 P2.p1A Describe energy changes associated with
  changes of state in terms of the arrangement and order
  of the atoms (molecules) in each state. (prerequisite)
 P2.p1B Use the positions and arrangements of atoms
  and molecules in solid, liquid, and gas state to explain
  the need for an input of energy for melting and boiling
  and a release of energy in condensation and freezing.
  (prerequisite)
 P4.p1A For a substance that can exist in all three
  phases, describe the relative motion of the particles in
  each of the phases. (prerequisite)
HSSCEs: Chemistry
PREREQUISITES
 P4.p1B For a substance that can exist in all three
  phases, make a drawing that shows the arrangement
  and relative spacing of the particles in each of the
  phases. (prerequisite)
 P4.p1C For a simple compound, present a drawing that
  shows the number of particles in the system does not
  change as a result of a phase change. (prerequisite)
 P5.p1A Draw a picture of the particles of an element or
  compound as a solid, liquid, and gas. (prerequisite)
HSSCEs: Chemistry
HIGH SCHOOL CURRICULUM


 C2.2A Describe conduction in terms of molecules
  bumping into each other to transfer energy. Explain why
  there is better conduction in solids and liquids than
  gases.
 C2.2B Describe the various states of matter in terms of
  the motion and arrangement of the molecules (atoms)
  making up the substance.
 C3.3A Describe how heat is conducted in a solid.
HSSCEs: Chemistry
HIGH SCHOOL CURRICULUM


 C3.3B Describe melting on a molecular level.
 C4.3B Recognize that solids have a more ordered,
  regular arrangement of their particles than liquids and
  that liquids are more ordered than gases.
 C5.5c Draw Lewis structures for simple compounds.
Special emphasis

 C2.2B Describe the various states of
  matter in terms of the motion and
  arrangement of the molecules (atoms)
  making up the substance.


 P5.p1A Draw a picture of the particles of
  an element or compound as a solid, liquid,
  and gas. (prerequisite)
Handouts:
 Pretest, Pencils
 Coffee Filters, Scissors
 Notes Page or Lesson Brochure
 Key Concepts written on paper
 Writing passage with blanks for Key Concepts
 Tape or glue sticks
 Posttest, Coffee Filters


Collect: Scissors, Tape or Glue Sticks

 A substance is a collection of particles. These particles
  may be a mixture or all the same; they may be single
  atoms or molecules. If the particles vibrate or wiggle
  within a locked crystal pattern, the substance is a solid.
  Particles in faster motion, which flow around each other,
  no longer locked into place, are liquid. Faster moving
  molecules bounce vigorously, filling the entire space of
  the container. This is the vapor (gas) state. The
  arrangement of water molecules depends on their
  motion: vibrating, flowing, or bouncing. The density of
  water also depends on the arrangement of the molecules
  within the solid, liquid, or vapor substance.
