    Factual 

    What is the difference between a physical change and a chemical reaction?
    Conceptual 

    How is the energy and arrangement of particles in solids, liquids and gasses?
    Debatabel 

    Can the knowledge of the particles theory help us to make higher quality chocolates?

    States of Matter 
    ​

    What are the differences  between the states of matter?

    The particle theory is a great tool to explain the differences between the states of matter. The particle diagram and the arrangements of particles illustrates and explain the properties of the different states. 
    Task 

    differentiated task  

    There are 3 different tasks that you can complete. Please look at your latest feedback to see which area you need to work on most.

    1. PArticle diagram 

    Draw in your book the particle diagram of all 3 states of matter and label each correctly either solid, liquid or gas.

    2. Particle Arrangment

    BROWNIAN motion 

    Explaining Brownian Motion 

    The video explains how Brown discovered the movement of particles in liquid and gases by noticing the movement of bigger solid particles within the air or liquid.
    Blog
    Summarise what you think is brownian motion and post your summary as a comment on the blog. In addition, read your classmates posts and comment on at least one with what you think is good about their post and what they could do better.

    Diffusion 

    Investigating Diffusion 

    What is diffusion? How does it work? Why does diffusion usually happen slowly? These are all questions that we want to investigate in this section. Watch the video and take particular note of the particle diagrams 
    Task 
    Blog
    Imagine you are cooking a delicious meal in a pot closed by a lid. Draw the particle diagram of the following situations:
    1. Pot is closed with its lid  (draw gas particles in and outside the pot)
    2. Immediately after you have opened the pot 
    3. After around 10min 
    Now take a picture of your particle diagrams and upload it on the blog
