Summary

In a nutshell, Benedict claims that what is normal is synonymous with what is habitual (the things that the majority of the people raised in that society socially agree). However, she also claims that whatever is deemed normal as a result of societal conditioning is moral....

Solve this Chem-Mystery Use this link: http://www.chem4kids.com/files/matter_intro.html Complete the reading and then fill in the blanks below. Example: Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes it undergoes.

1. Matter is defined as anything that has _______ and takes up ________ (it has volume). 2. There are three main phases of matter: _____________, ____________, and _____________. There is also a fourth phase that exists at high temperatures called ____________.

Science Is Fun Go to the “ChemTime Clock” and answer the questions below. http://www.scifun.org/ChemTime/ChemTime.html

1. All materials, whether solid, liquid or gas, are made of _______________. Atoms are the smallest _______ of ___________. Scientists have found over _______ different kinds of atoms. The many different materials we encounter are made from _______________________ of these atoms. A material in which all atoms are the same kind is called an ______________. Therefore, there are over ____ different elements. Each element has been assigned a number, called its ___________ _____________.

2. Search for information about each element on the Chem Time Clock. Use the chemical symbol to identify each element. (Please note: For element symbols, the first letter must be capitalized. Additional letters, if any, are lowercase.)

Lightest atom  Lightest metal  Found in borax  Atomic number of 7  Major component of air  Used in making toothpaste  An element in table salt  Atomic number of 12  Used in “mag” wheels  Atomic number of 9  Used in laundry detergents  First discovered in the sun  Beryl, emeralds, and aquamarine  Atomic number of 11  Diamond and graphite  2nd most abundant element on Earth  Atomic number of 3  Glows red-orange with electricity  Name from Greek word for sun  Most common atom in universe  Found in buckyballs  Atomic number of 2 

Game Time! Game 1: Physical vs Chemical Changes

Read the link below and study the table below before taking the Physical vs Chemical Change Quiz. http://www.chem4kids.com/files/matter_chemphys.html Physical Change

Chemical Change

No new substance is formed

A new substance is formed

Atoms are NOT rearranged; molecules or atoms simply move faster or slower (or spread out or come close together respectively)

Atoms are rearranged to form new substances
