HEADING: CHANGING STATE

Learning Intention:
! To understand the effects of heat on the state of
matter

Success Criteria:
! I can describe how adding or removing heat impacts
states of matter

4. SUBHEADING: ADDING HEAT

Copy diagram and

text into book
Adding Heat
Adding heat to a solid or
liquid causes its particles to
move about more, and
faster. If enough heat is
added, particles break free
from each other and the
substance changes state: it
may melt, evaporate, or
sublime. 56

changing state by adding heat

! M elting
! M elting Point (mp)
! E vaporation
! B oiling
! B oiling point
! S ublimation

 5. SUBHEADING: REMOVING HEAT

Copy diagram and

text into book
Removing Heat
Removing heat to a gas or
liquid causes its particles
to move more slowly and
begin to attract to each
other, forming bonds. This
causes the substance
changes state: it may
freeze, or condense.

Learning Preparation:
!  Watch the video on the link attached to Google Classroom
(6 min 25 sec)

liquid-nitrogen-at-freezing-temperatures?source=home
!  Think about the following questions, then on the next slide,
answer the questions in your book.

Before watching, think about:

1.  At what temperature does water boil?
2.  At what temperature does water freeze?
3.  Are these changes to water reversible?

Answer the following in your book:

While you are watching:

4.  Observe the liquid nitrogen poured into the beaker. What
evidence can you see that it is cold?
5.  To prove that liquid nitrogen is ‘super’ cold, Ruben pours
some into a container of water.
a) What happens?
b) How does this prove that the liquid nitrogen is very cold?
6.  What safety issues should be considered when working with
liquid nitrogen?

Answer the following in your book:

Af ter you have watched (challenge):

7.  Create a labelled diagram to show the effect of adding liquid
nitrogen to water.
Add data such as the temperature of the liquid nitrogen, the
water after adding the liquid nitrogen.
Include information about any reversible changes that
happen.

Answer the following in your book:

Af ter you have watched (extra challenge):

8.  Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide.
a) Research the internet to find out what happens to dry ice
as it warms up. How is this different from what happens to
frozen water when it is heated?
b) Find out why frozen carbon dioxide came to be called ‘dry
ice’
