    • PS1.A: Structure and Properties of Matter
      Each pure substance has characteristic physical and chemical properties (for any bulk quantity under given conditions) that can be used to identify it. (MS-PS1-2)
    • PS1.B: Chemical Reactions
      Heating or cooling a substance may cause changes that be observed. Sometimes these changes are reversible, and cometimes they are not.
    • PS3.B Conservation of Energy and Energy Transfer
      Energy is present whenever there are moving objects, sound, light, or heat. When objects collide, energy can be transferred from one object to another, thereby changing their motion. In such collisions, some energy is typically also transferred to the surrounding air; as a result, the air gets heated and sound is produced. (4-PS3-2), (4-PS3-3)
