What happens when soda water loses its fizz? What molecules are carbon atoms in before the change? What other molecules are involved? Where are atoms moving from? What molecules are carbon atoms in after the change? What other molecules are involved? Where are atoms moving to? Chemical change Teaser process tool for soda water Remember: Atoms last forever (so you can rearrange atoms into new molecules, but can’t add or subtract atoms)

Chemical change Reactants Products Process Tool for Molecular Models Start by making the molecules and energy units of the reactants and putting them on the reactants side, then rearrange the atoms and energy units to show the products. Chemical change Reactants Products Remember: Atoms last forever (so you can rearrange atoms into new molecules, but can’t add or subtract atoms) Energy lasts forever (so you can change forms of energy, but energy units can’t appear or go away)
What happens when ethanol burns? What forms of energy are in the reactants? What molecules are carbon atoms in before the change? What other molecules are involved? Where are atoms moving from? What forms of energy are in the products? What molecules are carbon atoms in after the change? What other molecules are produced? Where are atoms moving to? Teaser process tool for all investigations except soda water Chemical change Remember: Atoms last forever (so you can rearrange atoms into new molecules, but can’t add or subtract atoms) Energy lasts forever (so you can change forms of energy, but energy units can’t appear or go away)
