Core Idea - Matter and Its Interactions

[5.PS.1.2] - Measure and graph the weights (masses) of substances before and after a reaction or phase change to provide evidence that regardless of the type of change that occurs when heating, cooling, or combining substances, the total weight (mass) of matter is conserved. Clarification Statement: Assume that reactions with any gas production are conducted in a closed system. State Assessment Boundary: Distinguishing mass and weight is not expected in state assessment.

Predecessor Standards:

  • 2.PS.1.4
    Construct an argument with evidence that some changes to materials caused by heating or cooling can be reversed and some cannot. Clarification Statements: Examples of reversible changes could include materials such as water and butter at different temperatures; Examples of irreversible changes could include cooking an egg, freezing a plant leaf, and burning paper.

Successor Standards:

  • 8.PS.1.5
    Use a model to explain that atoms are rearranged during a chemical reaction to form new substances with new properties. Explain that the atoms present in the reactants are all present in the products and thus the total number of atoms is conserved. Clarification Statement: Examples of models can include physical models or drawings, including digital forms, that represent atoms. State Assessment Boundary: Use of atomic masses, molecular weights, balancing symbolic equations, or intermolecular forces is not expected in state assessment.

Same Level Standards:

  • 5.MD.A.1
    Convert among different-sized standard measurement units within a given measurement system (e.g., convert 5 cm to 0.05 m), and use these conversions in solving multi-step, real world problems.
  • 5.PS.1.1
    Use a particle model of matter to explain common phenomena involving gases, and phase changes between gas and liquid and between liquid and solid. Clarification Statement: Examples of common phenomena the model should be able to describe include adding air to expand a balloon, compressing air in a syringe, and evaporating water from a salt water solution. State Assessment Boundary: Atomic-scale mechanisms of evaporation and condensation or defining unseen particles are not expected in state assessment.
  • 5.PS.1.4
    Conduct an experiment to determine whether the mixing of two or more substances results in new substances with new properties (a chemical reaction) or not (a mixture).
