Even though cement and bread are not substances, they can help you to understand these concepts: Whatever you do to volume affects mass the same way. Whatever you do to mass affects volume the same way. If you have half as much of a material, you would expect the volume of the material to also be half as much. If you have twice as much of the material, you would expect its volume to also be twice as much. Substances, which you know are always the same throughout, will follow this rule. This relationship between mass and volume will stay the same for any substance, no matter how much of that substance you can sample and measure in the classroom. Why is this principle about the relationship between mass and volume always true of substances, but not always true of mixtures?
Just #2 please
Below are 3 real life situations. Pick two (2) them and explain ALL the science involved in the scenario. This means describe things like what is happening to the gas/liquid/solid molecules or atoms, which principles or laws are at work, why what is happening is happening, and how you know. At sea level, a pot of water will boil at 100 °C. Suppose you wanted to boil the same amount of water high in the Rocky Mountains. What do you expect the temperature will need to be (generally speaking)? Why? A can of soda sits in a sunny spot on the window sill for several hours. It is then opened at the same time as a cold can of soda from the refrigerator. What happens and why? Weather balloons do not float out into space. They reach an altitude of about 15 miles above the surface (3x the height of Mt Everest) and they burst. Why?
