Science is all around us, even right in our own kitchens! You might not have thought about the science of a spaghetti dinner. Science begins when we heat the water to boil our pasta. As the water boils, it turns to gas. The matter is changing from its liquid state to gas. Condensation along with evaporation is happening before our eyes. These are examples of physical changes, where the basic composition of substances remains the same. We add the pasta noodles to cook but it doesn’t end there. A chemical reaction is taking place here as well. By boiling the pasta the molecular structures of the starches change so that pasta changes from hard and brittle to soft, chewy and delicious!
