Five Concepts Of Science
1) Science Safety Equipment
2) Metals, Non-Metals, and Metalloids
3) Density
4) Minerals
5) Investigations
Science Safety Equipment (Concept 1)
eye goggles, aprons, an eye wash station, a fire blanket, a fire extinguisher, and gloves/tongs.
Eye Goggles
How we use:
Strap and put the eye goggles over your head and secure over your eyes.
Apron
How To Use:
1) Put the strap around your neck
2) With the apron covering your front
3) Take the two strings from your sides and tie them around your back.
Eye Wash Station
How To Use:
1) Don't rub your eyes.
2) Lead person to eye wash station
3) Rinse your eye for fifteen minutes.
Fire Blanket
How To Use:
1) Unfold blanket
2) Cover the fire completely with the blanket
3) Hold the blanket over fire until heat is gone
*Do not fan the fire
Fire Extinguisher
How To Use:
Pull the pin
Aim at the source/base
Squeeze the trigger
Sweep back and forth
Gloves/Tongs
How To Use:
1) Open glove
2) Insert your hand to where your hand is fully covered
Gloves
Apron
Fire Extinguisher
Eye Wash Station
Eye Goggles
Fire Blanket
Metals, Non-Metals, and Metalloids (Concept 2)
Testing Physical Properties
Luster- With a flashlight
Conductivity- With a circuit
Malleability/Brittleness- With a hammer
Ductile- If it's bendable (bend with hands)
Magnetic- With a magnet
Location on the Periodic Table
Density (Concept 3)
How to Calculate the Volume of a Regular Object
How to Calculate the Volume of a Irregular Object
How to Find the Mass of an Object
How to Calculate Density
Minerals (Concept 4)
Minerals are basically rocks that have all of one material. While rock is different little rocks together, minerals consist of only one item. The physical properties of minerals are:
1) Malleability
2) Conductivity
3) Hardness
4) Streak
5) Luster
6) Color/Texture
7) Mineral Crystal
8) Magnetic Attraction
We use Moh's Hardness Scale to test the main ten minerals on how hard they are. They are organized in that way.
