Learning Targets
- I can identify the formation of a new substance from observable signs. #dok1
- I can recognize evidence of chemical changes, such as production of a gas, change in thermal energy, formation of a precipitate, or color change. #dok1
- I can use evidence to determine when a chemical change has occurred. #dok2
- I can analyze changes in substances to explain if a chemical change has taken place. #dok2
- I can differentiate between physical changes and chemical changes using observed evidence. #dok3
Big Ideas
- Chemical changes create new substances with different properties from the original materials.
- Observable evidence provides clues to identify when and how chemical changes occur.
Essential Questions
- What evidence shows that a chemical change has occurred?
- How can you tell the difference between a chemical change and a physical change?
- Why do certain changes, like color change or formation of a gas, indicate a chemical change?
- How does understanding chemical change help us in real life?
- What are some examples from everyday life that show evidence of chemical changes?
