The Three States of Matter

The Science Site Posted on May 10, 2015 by Michael CurtisMarch 31, 2016

The Three States of Matter The three states, SOLID, LIQUID and GAS are called the three states of matter   (see Kinetic Theory) The boiling point of a substance is the temperature that causes it to change from a liquid to … Continue reading →

The Sun and the Water Cycle

The Science Site Posted on May 9, 2015 by Michael CurtisMarch 15, 2016

Nearly all energy we use on the Earth starts with energy from the Sun. The Sun powers wind, tides, and the water cycle The Water Cycle • Energy from the Sun (1) causes water from the sea to evaporate (2). … Continue reading →

Elements in the Earths crust

The Science Site Posted on May 8, 2015 by Michael CurtisApril 6, 2016

Rocks Most minerals come from rocks in the ground. Rocks from which we can obtain a metal are known as ores (eg Iron ore is a rock from which we can obtain iron). Some rocks (like chalk or limestone) are … Continue reading →

Elements

The Science Site Posted on May 8, 2015 by Michael CurtisApril 16, 2016

  Elements, compounds and mixtures Elements in the Earth’s crust     Obtaining metals from their ores There are about 100 elements in total, although  only about 20  are in everyday use. An element is the simplest of all chemical substances. It … Continue reading →

Chemical change         The three states of matter Change in Mass    The Water Cycle Heating copper sulphate Heating magnesium ribbon If a solid chemical is heated several things could happen: It could melt (change from a solid to a liquid) … Continue reading →

Materials and their properties

The Science Site Posted on May 7, 2015 by Michael CurtisOctober 12, 2021

There are many substances around us. They all have their own properties which is how we recognise them. Physical properties : colour, strength, malleable or brittle, conductor or insulator, high or low density, high or low melting point Chemical properties: … Continue reading →

Kinetic Theory

The Science Site Posted on April 7, 2015 by Michael CurtisMarch 16, 2016

The kinetic theory states that all matter is made up of tiny particles that are constantly moving. Solid: The particles are held closely together in a regular pattern and can only just vibrate Liquid: The particles are still close together … Continue reading →
