Curated OER
Enzyme Labs Using Jello
High schoolers test for the presence of enzymes in fruit and the specificity of those enzymes, as well as to identify and show the susceptibility of enzymes to certain environmental factors (temperature and pH) originating in the...
Curated OER
Plants In Space
In this biology worksheet, students grow corn plants in growth pouches as the control group in an experiment on plant growth in microgravity. Then they analyze any differences that occur between Earth-grown and space-grown corn plants.
Curated OER
Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions
Students observe demonstrations of exothermic and endothermic reactions and determine the changes that take place in a chemical reaction. Students observe four demonstrations showing entropy, attraction of molecules due to polarity,...
Curated OER
Investigating Factors That Affect Rate of Enzyme Action
Students explore the properties of enzymes. In this chemical reaction lesson, students explore enzymes through a Web-quest and investigative study. Students will collect and summarize data and create a class presentation. This lesson is...
Curated OER
Buffers
In this buffers worksheet, students identify the systems that could function as a buffer solution. Students determine the pH of a solution and the pH of the buffer. This worksheet has 6 problems to solve.
Curated OER
Thermodynamic Equilibrium Constants
In this chemistry worksheet, students examine the concept of thermodynamic equilibrium constants with intense detail. The application of the knowledge is practiced with problem solving.
Curated OER
Ka and Kb Calculations
In this solutions worksheet, learners calculate the pH of given solutions or calculate the Ka or Kb for chemical compounds. This worksheet has 11 problems to solve.
Curated OER
Enzymes and Jell-O
Students test for the presence of enzymes in fruit and the specificity of those enzymes. They identify the susceptibility of enzymes to certain environmental factors such as temperature and pH in the enzymes environment.
