The 'Changing States of Matter Posters' demonstrate how materials perform when heat is added or removed.
Investigate the observable properties of solids and liquids and how adding or removing heat energy leads to a change of state
Explain observable properties of solids, liquids and gases by modelling the motion and arrangement of particles
Compare reversible changes, including dissolving and changes of state, and irreversible changes, including cooking and rusting that produce new substances
A change of state between solid and liquid can be caused by adding or removing heat
Solids, liquids and gases have different observable properties and behave in different ways
Changes to materials can be reversible or irreversible
A change of state between solid and liquid can be caused by adding or removing heat
Solids, liquids and gases behave in different ways and have observable properties that help to classify them
Changes to materials can be reversible, including melting, freezing, evaporating, or irreversible, including burning and rusting
