 GUIDE QUESTION:
1. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SOLID MATERIALS WHEN THEY
WERE PRESSED?

2. WAS A NEW MATERIAL FORMED WHEN SOLID MATERIALS

WAS PRESSED?

3. WHAT CHARACTERISTICS OF SOLID WERE EVIDENT IN THIS

EXPERIMENT?
 REMEMBER THESE:
SOLID MATERIALS CAN BE PRESSED.
WHEN PRESSED, THESE MATERIALS
MAY CHANGED THEIR SIZE AND SHAPE.
OTHER SOLID MATERIALS MAY ALSO
CHANGED THEIR TEXTURE WHEN
PRESSED. HOWEVER, NO NEW
MATERIAL IS FORMED BECAUSE ONLY
THE PHYSICAL APPEARNCE OF THE
MATERIAL IS CHANGED.
