1. Endothermic: a chemical reaction that absorbs heat
2.Exothermic: a chemical reaction that releases heat.
3.Pure Substance: a substance that appears to be made of only one thing.
4. Volume: the amount of space an object takes up.
5. Displacement: the movement of liquid caused by the volume of a solid object.
6. Soluble: Able to be dissolved in a solvent (water) **Insoluble
7. Immiscible: not able to evenly mix.
8. Dissolve: to form a solution (evenly mixed, one color) by mixing a substance with water.

Observation: The bottle expanded when heated and contracted when cooled. Conclusion: Air’s volume expands or contracts depending on temperature. Application: a basketball left in a garage over winter.
Observation: When the solid objects were added to the liquid, the original level of the liquid rose to a higher level. Conclusion: The volume of the solid displaced the volume of the water. Application: Too much ice in a drink.
Observation: The flame goes out when the jar is placed over the candle. Conclusion: Fire needs oxygen to burn. Application: Fire blankets
Observation: The rock seems to be made of more than one color. The shaving cream appears to be all one color and texture. Conclusion: Neither of these objects are pure substances Application: Is milk a pure substance?
Observation: The sand did not dissolve. The purple crystal did dissolve. Conclusion: The sand is insoluble in water. The crystal is soluble in water (it dissolved). Application: Diluting wastewater.
Observation: There are two layers of liquid in the container. Conclusion: The two liquids are immiscible. Application: Italian Salad Dressing
Observation: The cup shaped pan floated and the folded pan did not float Conclusion: Air helps objects to float. Increased surface area also helps objects to float. Application: Rafts, life jackets. When floating in a pool, hold your breath and spread your arms and legs.
Observation: The reaction produced gas and the temperature lowered. Conclusion: Chemical Reactions can absorb or release heat. This reaction was endothermic. Application: Alka Seltzer reduces acid/heat in stomach (indigestion).
