The statement that is constructed using evidence includes no personal opinions or statements and has scientific evidence to support the claim. "Heating and cooling is a process that can be reversed. I melted a popsicle and then put the popsicle back in the freezer, and it froze into a solid popsicle again. I did this multiple times, and it always worked. This is an argument based on evidence." This statement shows that the investigation was repeated multiple times, and information was recorded.

I melted a crayon and then put the crayon in the refrigerator, and it did not form back into the crayon shape, just a hard pile of colored wax. I did this multiple times, and it always happened the same way. I think heating can be reversed. This is an argument based on evidence.

Becca says that some heating changes can be reversed. She gives the example of melting butter. She says that you can turn a solid piece of butter into a liquid and then turn it back to a solid. Her friend Melva disagrees and says butter cannot be changed back and forth.
Is this an argument that can be settled with evidence?

This is an argument that could be settled with evidence. The girls are arguing if heating and cooling is a process that can be reversed with butter as an example. The girls could test the butter by melting it and seeing if they can turn it back to solids. They could collect information during the investigation to help decide who is correct.

Today Patrick and Annie's mother made French toast for breakfast. She asks them if the changes to the bread can be reversed or not. Annie says the changes cannot be reversed, and Patrick says the changes can be reversed. How could the kids determine who is correct?

Tap to reveal answer
Annie and Patrick could use any of the answer choices to determine who is correct. They could perform an investigation or experiment and collect information. They also can research heating and cooling changes to determine if someone else has discovered an answer to their question. All of these actions could help the siblings collect evidence about the topic.

Today is the 4th of July, and Sammie's dad celebrated with fireworks. He lit them in the yard for everyone to see. His dad asks them if the changes made to the fireworks can be reversed or not. Sammie says the changes cannot be reversed, and his dad says the changes can be reversed. How can Sammie's dad prove the changes can be reversed?

If Sammie's father wants to prove that he can reverse the changes to the fireworks, then he would need to return them to their original state. He needs to reverse anything that has been done to them in the process of lighting them or during the explosion.

The statement above is a true statement and example of how heating and cooling can be reversed. If you melt a crayon, it goes from a solid to a liquid. This can be reversed, and the crayon can be returned to a solid-state by freezing or cooling it. Some changes cannot be reversed, but this example can be reversed.

Tap to reveal answer
Some objects or materials can be heated or cooled, and the changes caused can be reversed. An ice cube could have the changes applied to it reversed. If you heat an ice cube it will melt, you can refreeze it to turn it back to a solid. If you toast bread, bake a cake, or cook an egg, that change cannot be reversed.

In the situation presented, Angelo is correct. The changes to the popsicle can be reversed. Once it has been heated up and starts to melt, there is a change. In this case, their father puts it back into the freezer when he gets the call; this would cause the popsicle to refreeze. In some instances, these changes can not be reversed, but in this example, it is possible.

The photo that represents a heating or cooling change that can be reversed is the candle with melting wax. Once the candle is no longer lit, the wax will reharden and no longer will be a liquid. Baking a cake, heating toast, and lighting fireworks are all examples of applying heat in a way that cannot be reversed.

In the situation presented, Annie is correct. The changes to the bread are not able to be reversed once it has been heated up and turned into French toast. In some instances, these changes can be reversed like an ice cube or chocolate bar. If these items are melted, they can be cooled and will return to a solid. Once the bread is cooked, it cannot be changed back.

Sammie is correct in this situation. Once the fireworks are lit and the explosion happens, there is no way for this change to be reversed. The firework cannot be "unlit" and put back into the container once the heat has been applied. Something like a chocolate bar can have heat applied and then reversed once it is cooled, but fireworks are an example of something that cannot be changed.

The statement in the question is correct. Some changes can be reversed when something is heated or cooled, and others cannot. Boiling water can be reversed, once the steam cools it is liquid water again. Lighting a piece of paper on fire cannot be reversed; the paper cannot be returned to its original state.
