Science and Engineering Practices

I will plan and carry out investigations.I will develop and use models.

Draw how you think the cargo should be loaded on the barge.

How can I use what I know about different types of metals

to identify how they can be used?

STEM Career ConnectionMaterials EngineerJune 12

A local cargo company asked me to analyze the stability of their shipping barges. My goal is to help the cargo company move their materials by using less fuel. From what I can tell, the barges are overloaded and are displacing a lot of water, making it more difficult for them to move smoothly.

June 27

I suggested they load less cargo onto each barge or invest in barges made out of lighter weight material. That way, less fuel will be needed to move the ships at the speed required to get them to their destination on time.

Four friends were talking about matter. They each had different ideas about the kinds of things that are matter. This is what they said:

Abe: I think something needs to be solid to be matter.

Kayla: I think matter can be a solid or a liquid.

Curtis: I think matter can be a solid, liquid, or gas.

Lori: I think matter can be a solid, liquid, or gas, but it doesn’t include living things.

Lesson 1 Matter's Structure 5



Online Content at connectED.mcgraw-hill.com

STEM Career ConnectionPhysics Teacher I’m a physics teacher at Roosevelt High School, and I love what I do! There is much to explore in the world of physics, and although we have to take notes and do complex math, my students have fun. They work hard and even use computer models to show what they have learned.

My favorite days are when we do investigations. Sometimes I have all the materials ready to go and the students make predictions and follow instructions to complete the experiment. But sometimes I let them design their own experiments based on questions they want to answer about the physical world. These days are great. Sometimes they ask questions and find answers that I never thought of. And that is what science is all about—finding ways to discover new things!

Physics teachers can use

models to help students understand

the structure of different types of matter.

Science in Our World Watch the video of the iceberg. What is it made of?

What questions do you have about this mass of ice in the ocean?

Read about a physics teacher and answer the questions on the next page.

Inquiry Activity Compare Objects

How can you compare different types of matter to determine the structure of matter?

Make a Prediction Do heavier objects always take up more space than lighter objects? Explain your answer.

Carry Out an InvestigationBE CAREFUL Use caution to not spill any water.

1 Record Data Measure the mass of each object and record it in the table.

2 Measure about 250 milliliters (mL) of water in a graduated cylinder. Note the exact water volume.

3 Place each object in the water one at a time. You may need to hold it below the surface of the water with your finger.

4 Record Data Record the water level after you add each object. The difference between this amount and the original water volume is the volume of the object. Record this in the table as well.

Inquiry Activity Density and Buoyancy

You will explore the relationship between mass and volume, which determines density. You will also see how an object's density determines whether it will sink or float.

Write a Hypothesis How will you know whether an object in the materials list is more dense than water? Write a hypothesis in the form of an “If..., then...” statement.

Carry Out an InvestigationBE CAREFUL Wear safety goggles and use caution to not spill any water.

1 Record Data In the table on the next page, record whether you think each object will sink or float. Then, place each of the materials one at a time in the tank of water. Record your observations as to whether the object sinks or floats.

2 Record the volume of each object. You calculated the volumes of the two balls and the marble in the Explore activity.

3 Measure and record the mass of each object. You found this in the Explore activity, or you can use the pan balance.

4 Calculate the density of each object. Water is considered to have a density of 1 g/mL. Objects with a density greater than water should sink. Objects with a density less than water should float.

Performance Task Modeling Matter

Think like a physics teacher and use what you have learned about the structure of matter to develop models to show how particles are arranged in the three main states of matter.

Define a Problem How can you use the materials provided to model the three states of matter?

Make a Model 1 Label each of the three paper plates as Solid, Liquid,

or Gas. The plates represent the same amount of space that the particles will take up.

2 Think about the organization of particles in a solid, liquid, and gas. Divide the small objects into three groups to represent the particles in each state of matter.

3 Place the objects that represent the solid's particles on the plate labeled Solid. Glue the objects on the plate to represent the arrangement of the particles in a solid.

4 Repeat step 3 for the plate labeled Liquid and Gas.

Materials

3 paper plates

marker

100 small, same-size objects (buttons, beads, beans)
