Using simple materials, an informative lesson demonstrates the Law of Conservation of Matter and explains how to balance chemical equations. Young chemists perform experiments, analyze reactions, and balance chemical equations...

Learners explore the components of matter. They discover what matter is, the states of matter, and how heat and cold cause it to change states in an online format. In addition, they complete internet-based lessons, activities, and quizzes.

Eighth graders analyze physical change in mass. In this chemistry lesson plan, 8th graders describe, measure and calculate the amount of physical change occurring in mass before and after the change. Students should be familiar with...

Students record information from the periodic table for sodium and chloride. They determine whether salts are molecular or ionic compounds, along with sodium chloride's molecular weight, and relative weights

Students identify and describe the building blocks that make up an atom. They also compare the ages of atoms to the ages of the materials they compose,as well as, give examples that illustrate the small size of atoms.

Students practice naming and writing formulas for simple chemicals. After a review of vocabulary, they create ion flash cards and discuss the rules for writing chemical compounds. They practice naming and writing the formulas based on...

Students write the electron configuration of elements in the ground state. In this chemistry lesson, students draw how subatomic particles are arranged in the atom. They construct Lewis dot diagrams of valence electrons.

The purpose of this lesson involves reviewing nomenclature and molecular formulas as well as introducing naming molecular compounds and identifying acids. The students investigate and understand how conservation of energy and matter is...

Students write the electron configuration of elements using the Aufbau principle. For this chemistry lesson, students build their own key that demonstrates the principle.

Students play Chembalancer game and balance equations using the trial and error method.

Students differentiate physical and chemical change. In this chemistry instructional activity, students list examples of those changes. They apply what they learned in a Jeopardy style team game.

Students convert mole to mass to particles and vice versa. In this chemistry lesson, students discuss the importance of Avogadro's number. They apply what they have learned in a team competition.
