Exploring Matter

What happens when we combine solids and liquids, and how are gases formed?

Working in small groups with their adult chaperones, students will combine familiar household materials to create some surprising results that bubble, fizz, dissolve and mix (or don’t mix). They’ll see carbon dioxide turn directly from solid to gas and experience reactions that get warmer or cooler.
