Investigating the Molecular Scale Phase Change at the Molecular Scale

Launch the Phase Change Simulation and observe different phases in the Sim.

In the data table below, record your observations about the molecular scale of each phase.

Consider how the movement of molecules relates to the macro-scale appearance of each phase.

Can anyone explain 1. review your spectrometry data and use the known elements to identify the star's composition. which unknown elements make up this star? justify your element selections. 2. in parts i and ii of the lab, what happened to the electrons of each element to produce the different colors of light? explain your answers using important terms from the lesson and information provided in the laboratory. 3. stars composed of heavier (more massive) elements are often slightly older than stars made predominantly from hydrogen and helium. based on your data, is the newly discovered star a younger star? explain your answer.
