PASS Strand:
1. Physical Properties in Matter

Objectives:

5. Substances react chemically in characteristic ways with other substances to form substances with different characteristics (e.g., rusting, burning, reaction between baking soda and vinegar, etc.).

Time Range:
2nd quarter; two weeks

Suggested Teaching Strategies:
Activities should demonstrate a change other than a physical change that produces substances different from their reactants. These should include the five signs for a chemical change: color change; gas produced, endothermic reaction, exothermic reaction, and new substance formed.
