Q6.Award TWO marks for the correct answer of 3.75

If the answer is incorrect, award ONE mark for evidence of an appropriate method, e.g.

•   60 ÷ 4 = 15•   250 × 15 = 3750•   3750 ml ÷ 1000 =

OR

•   250 ÷ 4 = 62.5 ml per second•   62.5 × 60 = 3750•   3750 ml ÷ 1000 =

OR

•   60 ÷ 4 = 15, so there are 15 lots of 4 seconds in 1 minute so there are 15 bottles per minute.

•   There are 4 bottles in 1 litre•   15 ÷ 4 =

Accept for TWO marks, 3,750 ml for final answer in working and the answer box blank OR 3,750 in the answer box where the litres has been replaced with millilitres.Accept for ONE mark 3,750 litres (l) in the answer box OR the final answer in working and answer box blank.

Science: Changing State

Overview for adults

Ice cream is basically droplets of fat from milk suspended in millions of tiny crystals of ice, fluffed up with tiny pockets of air. This activity shows you how to make a mixture that turns cold enough to create those ice crystals without the aid of a freezer – and reveals how salt and ice make a chilling combination

What’s the science? Pure water freezes at 0 degrees Celsius. Add salt and the

freezing point drops by a few degrees. When you add salt tothe ice in the outer bag, the ice (at 0°C) is now above its freezing point – so it begins to melt. Melting requires energy, and in this case that energy comes from the flavoured milk mixture in the inner bag. Ice crystals start to grow in-between the tiny globules of fat in the milk and bubbles of air, causing the milk to freeze and change state from a liquid to a solid.

Science in your world

During the winter, grit spreaders often throw rock salt ontomain roads if the temperature is forecast to drop below freezing.When snow falls on the salt, it melts in the same way as the icein the outer bag in the activity. And spreading the salt before the temperature drops below 0°C means ice cannot form on the road– unless the temperature plunges much lower.

Did you know...?

Zero degrees on the Fahrenheit temperature scale, equivalent to –18°C, was originally defined as the temperature of a freezing concentrated mixture of salt and water.

In centigrade or Celsius, the freezing point is zero degrees.

Believe it or not, you can make ice cream without a freezer

WATER AND SUGAR

Sprinkles (optional)

Table salt

Warm gloves

Cone (optional)

Flavoured milkTwo or three trays of ice cubes

A large zip-lock bag

Pot (optional)

A small zip-lock bag

You will need...

Think and talk about… Investigate…• What do you see happening to the

ingredients?• What do you think the salt is doing? How

could you find out more?• How does the finished product compare

with shop-bought ice cream?

•

Can you make the ice cream freeze faster? Try altering the amount of salt or how much you shake the mixture.

• Try different ingredients – do they behave in the same way?

Follow these steps…

Pour half a cup of flavoured milk into the small zip-lock bag and seal it tight.

Place the small zip-lock bag inside the large bag with the ice and salt, and seal the large bag.

5 After five minutes of shaking, carefully take the small bag out and taste your ice cream!

Top tip: Be careful not to spill any of the salty ice water or mix it with your ice cream as you get it out of the bag.

Put a generous amount of ice into the large zip-lock bag, then add 6 tablespoons of salt. The salt lowers the freezing point of the ice, and you will see the ice begin to melt.

Put on some gloves (so your hands don’t get cold) and start to gently shake and squeeze the bag.

Seal it

Pour

Whole school theme: Keeping fit

Week 7 weekly whole school activity:

Put a sock in it!

Your parents might like this game! For the first part of the game, I want you to time how quickly you can sort - and put into pairs - socks ready to go into your sock draw. It is better to start off with a set number of pairs (10). Challenge your parents or/and your siblings to see if they can beat your time!

Once you have finished this part of the game, it is now time for the ‘sock throw game’. Place a basket into the middle of the room and see how many of your pairs of socks you can get into the basket. Each pair is worth 2 points. Who is the sock master in your house?
