Mr. McCormack & Mrs. Kane (student teacher) recently used dry ice to examine phase changes in the lab last week during the 9th grade Physical Science class. They watched sublimation in action - dry ice is one of those rare substances that go directly from a solid to a gas. It’s especially fun because you can see the gas/vapor. Then we added dish soap to make the bubbles which made the gas produced really visible! #GrowingForTheFuture
