Part I. Classify the following materials as solid, a liquid or a gas.
ACTIVITY 3
Are the particles of matter moving? What is between them?
Objectives:
After performing this activity, you should be able to:
1. infer from observations that particles of matter move; and
2. represent through a drawing/ illustration what is between particles of matter.
Materials Needed:
2 cups tap water
1 piece, 30-mL plastic syringe
1 piece wide mouthed transparent bottle
1 piece narrow mouthed transparent bottle
1 plastic or glass dinner plate
½ cup rock salt or sand
food colouring (blue, red or green)
Procedure:
1. Pull the plunger of the syringe until it reaches the 30-mL mark of the syringe.
2. Press your thumb on the tip of the plunger and use your other thumb to push
the plunger once.
Q1. Can you push the plunger all the way through the syringe while
your thumb presses on the tip of the plunger? Why or why not?
3. This time push the plunger of the syringe all the way to the end of the
syringe. Suck water from the cup or the container up to 30-mL level of the
syringe. Cover tightly the tip of the syringe with your thumb.
Q5. Explain what you observe. You may represent your comparison by
drawing an illustration of the syringe and the particles of air and
another illustration of the syringe and the particles of water.
5. Pour the ½ cup of tap water in step #4 into another bottle or beaker. Observe
carefully the flow of water
6. This time, pour the water just on the flat surface of a dinner plate
7. Examine a single piece of bottle cap. Pit it inside the bottle. Observe carefully
what happens as you transfer it by tilting the bottle into the dinner plate.
8. Pour ½ cup of rock salt or sand into the narrow-mouthed bottle. Observe
carefully what happens to rock salt as you pour it into the bottle and when all
of it has been transferred.
Q9. Did rock salt or sand take up the shape of the bottle? Did the
particles of rock salt change in shape?
