Make the microscopic world of chemical reactions come to life. An engaging video demonstrates a methane-oxygen reaction. Learners see the reaction take place and observe the chemical equation being balanced. 

Explore the chemistry behind the airbags that keep you safe in a collision. Using a simulation, your classes find the best gas to use to inflate an airbag. The simulation shows the time it takes to inflate to a maximum volume....

Chemistry can help athletes and others protect and treat injuries. Use the interactive activity to explore the chemical reactions in instant hot and coldpacks. Learners manipulate the type of salt in the pack and watch the reaction take...

You didn't know you'd find moles in chemistry class! Through the introduction of moles and molar volume at STP, classes see how to calculate moles using a given chemical equation. The presentation includes a short review of ions in...

Once I told a chemistry joke, but there was no reaction. Get young chemists involved in changes and reactions with a presentation that begins with physical and chemical changes and chemical reactions. It moves on to chemical...

Don't take for granted the technology behind power packs. Build an understanding of the chemical mechanics of a battery pack that charges your phone. The simulation allows young scientists to manipulate the type of elements in a pack and...

Do you have mole problems? If so, call Avogadro at 602-2140. The lesson starts with pupils working independently to solve for molar mass of ionic compounds. Then they learn to solve for percent composition and later perform an...

Play a little game with your classes! Young scholars expand on their understanding of oxidation/reduction reactions in a game-based activity. They build a Galvanic cell with game pieces while learning about each component and their...

If you need an array of worksheets to augment your science lessons, peruse a collection of assignments that is sure to fit your needs. With topics such as metric conversion, the scientific method, textbook features, research skills,...

Substances with the same empirical and molecular formula must be differentiated by their structural formula. Part two in a series of 36 has pupils using chemical formulas to calculate how much of a compound is present in a given...

Not all chemical reactions happen at the same rate because some, like explosions, occur quickly and some, like rusting, occur over time. Here, learners explore chemical reactions and their rates in the 16th lesson of 36. Through readings...

Sixth in a series of 36, this lesson focuses on gases and their behavior in given situations. Learners review the states of matter and then focus on gases, specifically learning Boyle's, Charles's, Avogadro's Laws, Dalton's, and Graham's...
