This+or+That?+Physical+and+Chemical+Properties

//This or That? Physical and Chemical Properties//
Often you will find that we will look at chemistry from many different perspectives to understand how our physical world works. From stoves to pools, everything and anything have physical and chemical properties, so let's begin our expedition of finding out whether something is 'this' or 'that'.

In class, we will often here and observe matter for their physical and chemical properties. In the spirit of making predictions in science, look at the two images below and think if the picture represents a physical AND/OR a chemical change and why.

Make sure to type that up as your pre-assignment assessment. Now let us start the real fun.

This week, the class was split up into groups 1, 2, 3, and 4 and in those same groups, you can work on this assignment. Each group will work on one of the four sets of assignments together, but everyone must turn in their own work and be sure to cite classmates when someone else helped you or provided you information. Remember, if you didn't come up with it on your own, you have to cite someone. This is part of what it means to be a scientist: to acknolwedge help when you get it.

Group 1:

1. Begin with writing your definition of physical property. You will not get points off if you are wrong. 2. Look up from at least two different sources the definition of physical properties and write them down. 3. Look up three examples of *different* types of physical properties. 4. For one of the physical properties, look up an image that represents it. 5. Make up an example that would illustrate a physical property of matter.

Please create a microsoft word document and put your information as responses to my numbered tasks.
 * Be sure to cite which websites you checked and help from your group members.*

Email this by the end of class.

After collecting all your information, compare your answers to Group 3.

6. Are your definitions different than your classmates defintions of physical propeties? If yes, how? 7: Are your definitions found from another source in any way different than Group 3? 8. Did they note different physical properties than you did? Are those physical properties related to the ones you have found?

Now look at Group 2 and 4: 9: How does the definition of physical properties differ from chemical properties? 10: How are Group 2 and 4's examples different than your group?

Please type up the responses to the questions 6-10 individually. The responses are due tomorrow.
