8.P.1 Understand the properties of matter and changes that occur when matter interacts in an open and closed container.
8.P.1.4 Explain how the idea of atoms and a balanced chemical equation support the law of conservation of mass.
That reactions occur at different rates, slow to fast, and that reaction rates can be changed by changing the concentration of reactants, the temperature, the surface areas of solids, and by using a catalyst
