Shake the Shot Name: Date: Period: Prelab Questions: 1. Temperature is described as a of the per molecule of a substance. The greater the movement of molecules, the greater the temperature. Based on this description, use temperature in a sentence that is related to the purpose of this lab. 2. Thermal energy is most commonly described as the of the molecules in a substance. Thermal energy always travels from hot to cold matter. Based on this description, use thermal energy in a sentence that is related to the purpose of this lab. 3.

2. What did the vermicelli do when you added the acetic acid? Explain using density. (Hint: What attached to it? What did it do to the volume of the vermicelli? Then, what popped? What did the popping do to the volume of the vermicelli?) 3. Describe what physical changes you observed BEFORE you added the acetic acid. 4. Describe what physical changes you observed AFTER you added the acetic acid. 5. What was one chemical change that you were able to observe? (Hint: What gas formed? What is the evidence for this?) 6. How many atoms are in Acetic acid? And Sodium Bicarbonate? 7. What were the 4 different elements involved in this reaction? 8. What were the five different types of molecules involved in the reaction? (Hint: Think of the equation Mrs. Boman gave you at the beginning of the lab) Conclusion: See attached conclusion
