Chemical Sciences: Changes to Materials Week 10 Term 2

We are learning about changes to materials when we cook.

Solids, liquids and gases have different observable properties and behave in different
ways
We will safely use appropriate materials, tools or equipment to make and record
observations
Pancake recipe:
Ingredients
1 cup (150g) flour
1 table spoon of sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup (250ml) milk
2 teaspoons (10ml) lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon bicarb soda
30g butter, melted
Method:
Put the milk, lemon juice and sugar into a small bowl and stir.
Sift the flour and bicarb soda into the large bowl and mix together.
Make a well (like a hole) in the middle of the flour and add the milk mixture and egg.
Mix the egg and milk into the flour until all the lumps are gone.
WAIT until your groups turn to go to the cooking table where Leanne will cook your
pancakes.
SAFETY:
To be safe when we are using heat we all need to
Listen to the teachers instructions
Talk safely
Move slowly and carefully
Think and act safely
We discussed first aid for burns.
We know that if we get a burn from the electric frying pan we must put the burn under
cold running water for at least 20 minutes.
Do this straight away - do not wait for the teacher.****

Explain why you think lemon juice and bicarb soda are included in the recipe.
Use your knowledge of changes to materials to explain what happens to the pancake
mixture when it is heated and cooked.
