By the end of this lesson, students will be able to plan and carry out an investigation to determine whether mixing two or more substances results in new substances, as outlined in standard 5-PS1-4.

Science and Engineering Practice

Students will develop and use models to describe how mixing substances can create chemical reactions that form new substances with different properties.

Disciplinary Core Ideas

Students will understand that when two or more different substances are mixed, a new substance with different properties may be formed (PS1.B).

Crosscutting Concept
