This page features an experiment designed to help secondary science students differentiate physical and chemical change. Using easily-acquired materials (baking soda, cabbage juice, and calcium chloride), students will investigate reactions that happen inside four sealed plastic bags. Their task is to determine whether the changes are chemical or physical (the experiment provides two of each).
CAUTION: This experiment is, overall, safe for young adolescents. However, plastic bags expand, so care should be exercised to prevent excessive pressure build-up that could result in bursting. In addition, when calcium chloride is dissolved in water, heat is given off. These solutions should be handled with gloves. The Science House is a project based at North Carolina State University. It sponsors teacher training programs, curriculum development, web-based experiments for use in K-12 classrooms, long-term loans of laboratory equipment, summer student research programs, and community outreach.
