Changing States of Matter Video – How Long Will It Take to Melt?

ACSSU046

A change of state between solid and liquid can be caused by adding or removing heatElaborationsinvestigating how liquids and solids respond to changes in temperature, for example water changing to ice, or melting chocolate (Skills: Numeracy, Critical...

ACSIS053

With guidance, identify questions in familiar contexts that can be investigated scientifically and make predictions based on prior knowledge

ACSIS055

Consider the elements of fair tests and use formal measurements and digital technologies as appropriate, to make and record observations accurately

ACSIS054

With guidance, plan and conduct scientific investigations to find answers to questions, considering the safe use of appropriate materials and equipment

ACSIS215

Compare results with predictions, suggesting possible reasons for findings

ACSIS057

Use a range of methods including tables and simple column graphs to represent data and to identify patterns and trends

ACSSU060

AC9S3U04

Investigate the observable properties of solids and liquids and how adding or removing heat energy leads to a change of state

AC9S3I01

Pose questions to explore observed patterns and relationships and make predictions based on observations

AC9S3I02

Use provided scaffolds to plan and conduct investigations to answer questions or test predictions, including identifying the elements of fair tests, and considering the safe use of materials and equipment
