Undertake a design project to construct, test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy during a chemical and/or physical process.
Clarification statement: Emphasis is on the design, controlling the transfer of energy to the environment, and modification of a device using factors such as type and amount of a substance. Examples of designs could include combining vinegar and baking soda, activating glow sticks at various temperatures and dissolving ammonium chloride or calcium chloride.
Assessment boundary: Assessment is limited to the criteria of substance amounts, reaction time, and observed temperature changes.
Grade 8 Science Test Questions
Released New York State Grade 8 science test questions that assess MS-PS1-6 are listed here by test and question cluster. Each link opens the question with its answer key.
| Exam | Cluster | Question |
|---|---|---|
| Middle school sample clusters | Investigating Chemical Reactions | Question 5 |
Vocabulary
Terms from the Middle School Science Glossary that come from this standard or from the released Grade 8 Science Test questions that assess it.
From this standard
- absorb energy
- change in temperature
- chemical process
- chemical reaction
- criteria
- design project
- device
- dissolving
- energy transfer
- environment
- glow stick
- physical process
- reaction time

- temperature – Sample
Implied by this standard
- exothermic reaction – implied by "a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy during a chemical and/or physical process" and "Some chemical reactions release energy, others absorb energy"
- endothermic reaction – implied by the same wording: a process that "absorbs thermal energy"
Performance Level Descriptions
Every Grade 8 Science Test question on MS-PS1-6 is written to match one of the performance level descriptions (PLDs) below.
Level 1: Given a project design, test a device to determine whether it releases or absorbs thermal energy during a chemical or physical process. Sample · Investigating Chemical Reactions Q5
Level 2: Given a project design, test and identify one modification to the device that would improve the release or absorption of thermal energy during a chemical and physical process.
Level 3: Undertake a design project to construct, test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy during a chemical and/or physical process.
Level 4: Undertake design projects to construct, test, and modify devices – one that will release thermal energy and one that will absorb thermal energy during a chemical and/or physical process.
Resources
Examples and discussion of resources for the learning, teaching, and assessment of MS-PS1-6.
This section could be expanded upon. You can help out by adding to this section.
NGSS Dimensions
Performance expectation MS-PS1-6 was developed using the following elements from the NRC document A Framework for K-12 Science Education:
Science and Engineering Practices
- Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions
- Undertake a design project, engaging in the design cycle, to construct and/or implement a solution that meets specific design criteria and constraints.
Disciplinary Core Ideas
- PS1.B: Chemical Reactions
- Some chemical reactions release energy, others absorb energy.
Crosscutting Concepts
- Energy and Matter
- The transfer of energy can be tracked as energy flows through a designed or natural system.
