Unit 2 Materials: properties and changes


Worksheet 2.1.1
1 a A line graph
b

2 a 0 °C
b No. Melting point is a property of a substance and each substance has its own
melting point.
c Heat energy from the surroundings is transferred to the particles of ice.
The heat makes the particles move faster and further apart as they gain energy.
When the particles have enough energy, they change state to become liquid water.

Stretch questions
3 a For four minutes.
b This is the time it takes for all the ice to melt.

4 a Learners should use their graphs to predict a temperature of about 10 °C after 20 minutes
by extending the right side of their line graph.
b See graph.

2 a 100 °C
b Yes. In both graphs the temperature increases up to 100 °C and stays at that temperature,
showing the water has reached boiling point.
c Do the investigation again several more times under exactly the same conditions
as the original experiment.

3 Bubbles form in the boiling liquid, steam forms and condenses in a cloud above
the boiling water.

4 a No.
b The graph of Mr Moola’s class’s results is steeper and the temperature reaches
boiling point quicker than the graph of Mrs Kaur’s class’s results.
c Mr Moola gave the water more heat/used a hotter burner or hotplate. The starting
temperature of Mr Moola’s water may have been higher than Mrs Kaur’s.

Worksheet 2.3
1 a Water
b Sugar

2 a 100 °C
b 60 seconds
c About 74 seconds
d 5 °C

3 a The quantity of sugar; the quantity of water.


b The time taken for the sugar to dissolve.
c The temperature of the water.

4 Sugar dissolves more quickly as the temperature of the water increases.

Stretch questions
5 a To make sure that the results obtained are reliable.
b The sugar dissolves faster as the temperature of the water increases.
c Yes. In one test at 40 °C the sugar dissolved much faster (19 seconds) than in the
other tests at 40 °C (26 seconds and 27 seconds).

f Fastest: 50 °C; slowest: 10 °C


g When a solid dissolves in a liquid, the solute particles move and spread out between
the solvent particles until they are evenly spread. The particles of both the solute
and the solvent have less energy at a lower temperature so the solute particles
spread more slowly between the solvent particles. When the temperature increases,
the particles gain energy and move more quickly and further apart. This allows the
solute particles to spread faster through the solvent particles.

Worksheet 2.4
1 a Dependent variable – temperature of the mixture; independent variable – quantity
of water used; control variables – quantity of plaster of Paris used, how often the
temperature was measured, water temperature at the start of the experiment.
b Yes, only one variable was changed.

2 a Change in temperature.
b Formation of gas; change in colour.

3 The temperature increases as more water is added, up to when two parts of water are
mixed with one part of plaster of Paris (2:1 ratio). This gives the highest temperature
reached. As the quantity of water added increases further, the highest temperature
reached drops/decreases.
4 No. Dissolving is not chemical reaction. No new substances are formed when salts dissolve.

Stretch questions
5 It takes time for all the particles of plaster of Paris to react completely with the
water particles, or similar answer.
6 Heat is given off during the chemical reaction. As more and more particles of plaster of
Paris and water react, more heat is given off and the temperature rises. When all the
particles of plaster of Paris have reacted with the water particles, no more heat is
released and the product starts cooling down (to room temperature).
