other hand most of stu<strong>de</strong>nts had difficulty to i<strong>de</strong>ntify “producing beer “as CP whi<strong>le</strong><br />

“manufacture an indicator” appeared easy.<br />

Although many stu<strong>de</strong>nts establish the difference b<strong>et</strong>ween PP and CP (answers to<br />

question 1) they still have a litt<strong>le</strong> difficult to distinguish PP to CP among a list of<br />

phenomena. The statistical results show a significant difference b<strong>et</strong>ween stu<strong>de</strong>nts<br />

mean CP values and stu<strong>de</strong>nts mean PP values [t (9) = -9.478, p= .000].Therefore<br />

chemical phenomena were more difficult to i<strong>de</strong>ntify than physical phenomena.<br />

Was there any connection b<strong>et</strong>ween CP and CR?<br />

The mean value “a” CP or CR is the higher than each other’s. The statistical analysis<br />

show that the difference b<strong>et</strong>ween “a” CP value and “i” value CP is not significant<br />

neither “a” CR value nor “c” CR value. But the difference b<strong>et</strong>ween CP values to each<br />

other’s is still significant expected “c-g-h” CP values which seemed statistically same<br />

values too. Therefore the statistical analysis shows two different groups of CP values:<br />

“a = i” group and “c=g=h” group; and different groups of CR values “a=c” and “g=h=i”.<br />

The assertion “h” still has the lowest value and “a” the highest one for CP and CR. It<br />

seemed easy to stu<strong>de</strong>nts to i<strong>de</strong>ntify “burning paper” as a chemical phenomenon and<br />

to connect it to a chemical reaction however “producing beer” was very difficult to<br />

i<strong>de</strong>ntify as CP and to connect to a CR.<br />

Otherwise t-paired samp<strong>le</strong>s test indicated that the difference b<strong>et</strong>ween mean CP and<br />

mean CR is very significant [ for a: t (9) = 18.319, p= 0.000; for c:t(9) = 6.721 , p =<br />

0.000; for g : t(9) = 9.362, p = 0.000; for h: t(9)= 11.692, p = 0.000; for i: t (9)= 14.630;<br />

p = 0.000].<br />

On the other hand many stu<strong>de</strong>nts consi<strong>de</strong>red those phenomena occur physical,<br />

chemical or biological reaction. As a result few stu<strong>de</strong>nts were ab<strong>le</strong> to say that<br />

“producing beer” is a” fermentation” reaction. All the Stu<strong>de</strong>nts of six schools have<br />

fai<strong>le</strong>d this question. Most of them consi<strong>de</strong>red it as a biological reaction.<br />

If we pursue the analysis we can see that the difference b<strong>et</strong>ween the Stu<strong>de</strong>nt who<br />

i<strong>de</strong>ntify correctly CP with CR is significant [t (9) = 18.402, sig. 2-talied = 0.000). The<br />

stu<strong>de</strong>nts CR know<strong>le</strong>dge seems to be mediocre. Stu<strong>de</strong>nts' know<strong>le</strong>dge of CR is poorer<br />
