MS-PS1-5 Matter and Its Interactions 

Students who demonstrate understanding can: Develop and use a model to describe how the total number of atoms does not change in a chemical reaction and thus mass is conserved.
Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on law of conservation of matter and on physical models or drawings, including digital forms, that represent atoms. 
Assessment Boundary: Assessment does not include the use of atomic masses or intermolecular forces.

Crosscutting Concepts

Science & Engineering Practices 

Disciplinary Core Ideas 

Energy and Matter:

  • Matter is conserved because atoms are conserved in physical and chemical processes. 

Developing and Using Models:

  • Modeling in 6–8 builds on K–5 and progresses to developing, using and revising models to describe, test, and predict more abstract phenomena and design systems.
  • Develop a model to describe unobservable mechanisms. 

Chemical Reactions:

  • Substances react chemically in characteristic ways.
  • In a chemical process, the atoms that make up the original substances are regrouped into different molecules, and these new substances have different properties from those of the reactants.
  • The total number of each type of atom is conserved, and thus the mass does not change. 

Science Models, Laws, Mechanisms, and Theories Explain Natural Phenomena:

  • Laws are regularities or mathematical descriptions of natural phenomena.
