  • Changes of Materials - 'Chemistry Kitchen'

 

Within the topic 'Changes of Materials' we learn:

  • A reversible change is a change that can be undone or reversed.
  • An irreversible change is when a chemical reaction results in the formation of new materials and cannot be changed back. 
  • Reversible changes are physical changes.
  • Irreversible changes are chemical changes.
  • Heat often causes chemical changes to occur and these are irreversible and that burning is an example of an irreversable change that forms a new material.
  • Many irreversible changes form gases, including carbon dioxide, when they take place.
  • Rust is a new material that is formed by a chemical reaction of iron and oxygen when water is present.
  • Mixing milk and vinegar forms a type of plastic that was used to make products in the past.
  • Scientists use chemical reactions to invent new materials, including ones that use recycled materials.  
  • About the inventions of Spencer SIlver and Stephanie Kwolek.
