States of Mater Investigation .

Name: ________________________
INVESTIGATION ONE
Using the simulator, change the Atoms & Molecules to Water.
In the Teacher options, select Celsius.
Change the Change State to solid.
Draw a diagram of the different states of matter that the water appears in and answer the
following questions.
Solid
What temperature does this state appear in?
_______________________________________
Where does this state appear in the water cycle?
_______________________________________
Where can you find this state of water on the
Earths atmosphere or out in space?
_______________________________________

_______________________________________
What is the state of the molecules in this state?

_______________________________________

Draw a diagram of the simulator showing the


movement of the molecules.

INVESTIGATION TWO
Change the Change State to Liquid and make note of the temperature it is set at.
Change the Change State back to Solid.
Heat up the solid water, watching the change in the molecule movement until it reaches
the temperature that Liquid appears at.
Draw a diagram of the different states of matter that the water appears in and answer the
following questions.
Liquid
Where does this state appear in the water cycle?
_______________________________________
What temperature does this state appear in?

Draw a diagram of the simulator showing the


movement of the molecules.
