Reversible Changes
Science · Matter & Materials · conceptual
Demonstrate that dissolving, mixing, and changes of state are reversible changes where no new materials are formed
What mastery looks like
- Define a reversible change as one where the original materials can be recovered
- Give at least three examples of reversible changes: melting, freezing, dissolving, evaporating
- Explain how to reverse each example (e.g. freeze melted chocolate, evaporate a solution)
Check your understanding
Can Reversible Changes explain that melting chocolate or dissolving sugar can be undone — you can get the original material back — because these are reversible changes?
