🔬 Grade 7 • 🧪 Chemical Reactions and Conservation

Chemical Reactions and Conservation

Use particle models and evidence to explain chemical reactions, reactants, products, and why matter is conserved even when substances change.

📋 What You'll Learn

  1. 1 Describe chemical reactions as processes that form new substances
  2. 2 Identify reactants and products in a reaction model
  3. 3 Use evidence to distinguish physical change from chemical reaction
  4. 4 Explain conservation of mass in terms of particles rearranging
