Students analyze data obtained from testing different materials to determine which materials have the properties that are best suited for an intended purpose.
Students can analyze and interpret data on the properties of substances before and after the substances interact to determine if a chemical reaction has occurred.
A solution needs to be tested, and then modified on the basis of the test results in order to improve it.
Students will observe and communicate scientific information about why the molecular-level structure is important in the functioning of a material.
Students can conduct simple tests using the Water Gel Spikes to better understand the rate at which the polymers absorb or evaporate water. Information gathered can be used as evidence to support or refute student ideas about hydrophilic (water-loving) materials.
Students will observe and communicate scientific information about why the substance is able to absorb so much water. Further study of the structure of the hydrophilic polymers will help students to understand that the molecular-level structure is important in the functioning of a material.
