This document discusses properties of air and gases like oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. It asks questions about whether air has mass and can be poured. It also discusses that carbon dioxide molecules are more massive than oxygen or nitrogen molecules because they contain more particles. Additionally, it talks about how gravity affects weight but not mass, and how air resistance and gravity impact falling objects and flying designs.

1. Welcome to
Magic or Science!

2. Magic or Science
What are our 5 senses?
Using your senses…..what might you
know about AIR?

3. Magic or Science
Does Air/Gas Have MASS?
Each box holds the same amount of
particles….what do you notice about the space
they take up?
Mass and
Weight are
the same
thing ONLY
on Earth.
O2
CO2
N2
H2O
water
H2O
ice

4. Magic or Science
O2
CO2
N2
H2O
water
H2O
ice
Can you POUR Air/Gas?

5. Magic or Science?
Why might CO2 more massive than N2 and O2?
Carbon Dioxide Molecule
Oxygen Molecule
Nitrogen Molecule
HINT: Which MOLECULE has more particles(mass)?

Your
WEIGHT
changes on
each planet
because of
GRAVITY.
Your MASS
stays the
same on
each planet
because you
are have the
same
AMOUNT OF
PARTICLES.

9. 1)If GRAVITY is pulling down and
2)If Air Resistance is pushing against things
How might you design the BEST flying object ?
• Illustrate 2
different Diagrams
showing
construction
IDEAS.
• You need to work
with one other
designer.
