Week2_Prompt#2

Physical properties affect the states of matter in very different ways. First, I would like to talk about solids. Solids have a definite volume and shape but when placed inside of certain conditions the properties change. When you put a solid in a heated container it begins to melt and turns into a liquid such as melting ice. When put into a frozen or cold container the solid stays solid ,but may feel harder because of being frozen. Secondly, I would like to talk about liquids. Liquids do not have a definite shape ,but liquids have a definite volume as long as temperature and pressure stays constant. liquid when heated turns to a gas and when frozen it turns in to a solid Example s of both these things would be evaporation, boiling water, or freezing water. Lastly, I would like to talk about gases. Gases do not have a definite shape or volume. Gases are all around air is even a gas. Even though a gas can not me measured or even seen it can still be con fined inside of a container. That was how physical properties affect the states of matter in a different container.

How do you think science will help you in your career life when your older ?

I think science will help me in becoming a good pediatrician. I will know all about medicine and germs that can affect a child. Science is a fantastic subject and it can really help me in the future.

CHALLENGE:

This is a question to all my followers and anyone else who ever else wants to comment on this question: How Do You Think Science Will Help You In Your Career Life When Your Older? Please comment your answers on my blogger page and I will be sure to get older.

Week1_Prompt#1

The difference between a physical and chemical change when acted on matter is first of all a physical change does not change the chemical properties of an object. Secondly physical change involves a change in the physical property such as state of matter size or color. For example when you take water in a bottle that is already formed as a liquid and turn that liquid into a solid by freezing it. Chemical changes happen very powerful but on a much smaller scale. Chemical changes also happen between molecules and the changes go unseen at first. Finally overtime you see the results of the chemical change just slowly progressing until you fully see it. For example The Statue of Liberty. The Statue of Liberty was first given to us as a copper statue of a woman that stands for freedom; then naturally over hundreds of years she becomes a greenish color. This is a cause of chemical change because the air molecules and other natural causes have combined to take away the statues copper color and give it a greenish color which is what we see now. To summarize all that I tried to say; I am simply saying physical changes can be made without changing the make of a substance while chemical changes do the opposite.

Big Thanks to Miss Douglas

I would like to give a great big thank you to Miss Douglas the best science teacher in the world for putting all of this together for us. I would have never been able to do these things and experience all the things I have these past weeks if it wasn't for her because without her giving me this opportunity I would have never known what technology may have to offer to me. So thanks again. Keep up the good work , your the best.

Technology In Scince

I like science because it's so universal. Everyone uses the same methods and learn the same objectives. Science also helps me on my goals to become a pediatrician.In order for me to me to become one I have to know all about the germs and health in dangers in the environment and world and what better place to get that information then in science class.I enjoy technology because it's so versatile but at the same time it's complex because technology is used by everyone and it's used everywhere around the world. Technology is complex because as we all know it is the gateway to the future and if you don't know how to use it then you will be left behind. It's also complex for example because allot of older people who weren't raised with computers so they find it very hard to use and understand.I know that it is up to the younger generation to step in and teach the older generation something for a change,and that's why I love technology because it gives me a chance to lead and teach someone instead of learning from someone for a change. That's what I like about science and technology.
