What are pupils expected to learn?
The content of this online magazine can be integrated in the context of studying physical states of matter: gaseous liquid and solid, conversions between states, caloric processes and solvation. Such processes are observed in the natural environment.
- Students will understand that not only water but also other chemical compounds can change their state of aggregation.
- Students will learn that conversion in the atmosphere is not only a physical processes of one compound which is always there in one of its states, but also chemical processes are taking place.
- Students will learn about saturation and the conditions for condensation of water in the air.
- Students will see, that particles are essential for cloud condensation and therefore have a climate impact.
- Students will see, that conversion processes require energy and energy and calorific properties play an important role in weather and climate phenomena.
