In this chemistry worksheet, students select the best answer for 26 multiple choice questions from the drop down box. They describe how elements are arranged in the periodic table.

In this atom worksheet, students answer 31 multiple choice questions about the structure of atoms, the periodic table, the reactivity of elements, orbital diagrams and the families of elements.

Students apply the principles of chemistry to investigate the concept of how a hydrogen powered car works. They study the electrochemical reactions that provide the energy source. Students also record observations in the functioning of a...

Students diagram nuclear power plant, describe process for generating electrical power, discuss nuclear disasters in the 20th century, and draw conclusion about value of nuclear power for the future.

Eighth graders investigate the different elements of the Periodic Table. In this chemistry lesson, 8th graders pick an element to research, then present to the class using a powerpoint presentation or a poster.

Students use density to identify what metal a gold colored weight is made of. They use a spreadsheet to graph the experimental density of common metals and compare the know densities to their calculated density of the known metal.

Students study polyatomic ions and write binary and ternary ionic chemical formulas. They explore putting together different monatomic ions and coming up with as many chemical formulas as possible. They play a game similar to memory...

Students will review a semesters worth of material on this final chemistry review. Information ranges from naming isotopes to pH and molarity.

Students read an article about radon and its properties. They examine a periodic table and identify the numbers surrounding an element. They discuss the harmful and helpful effects of radiation.

Students study the difference between types of ionizing radiation and how elements are transmuted. They determine that radiation is normal and surrounds us. They calculate the amounts of alpha, beta and gamma radiation emitted from a...

Students complete a Webquest which investigates the chemistry in items such as shampoo. They research the Internet, perform a lab experiment, and write a scientific lab report with their findings. Upon completion of the activities, the...

In this atoms activity, students answer four different sets of questions related to atoms (fill in the blank, multiple choice, word puzzle and true and false).

In this science worksheet, students use a periodic table to complete the first four rows of a chart. Students use the Internet or research books to complete the last column.

In this thermochemistry worksheet, students solve a variety of problems including finding heats or reactions, determining specific heats of substances, finding the amount of energy released in a calorimeter determining the final...

Students analyze the amount of space required to pack round objects. For this geometry lesson, students practice using space economically by practicing packing spheres into beakers. They then translate this concept to molecules being...

In this current events learning exercise, students analyze a political cartoon about the nuclear war threat and respond to 3 talking point questions.

Students analyze data taken from proteomic experiments. In this biology lesson plan, students explain the importance of bioinformatics tools in the study of proteins. They evaluate scientific results using math and computer software.

Students identify the different periodic trends. In this chemistry lesson, students discuss how elements are arranged in the periodic table. They apply what they have learned in a Jeopardy team game.

Students explain how elements are arranged in the periodic table. In this chemistry lesson plan, students group the eggs according to a certain pattern. They compare this to elements in the periodic table.   

Eighth graders view a PowerPoint presentation that assist them in distinguishing between physical and chemical changes. They compare their observations of demonstrations to a list of clues recognizing types of changes.

Students describe how radioactivity relates to alpha and beta particles. Using their properties, they write a descriptive paper about the gamma rays and alpha and beta particles. They calculate q-values and the half-life of a given...

Students create a model of a column of air and discover one of the reasons why low and high pressure systems exist and why low pressure is often associated with bad weather.

Learners consider the causes of density at a microscopic level. They then discover that one cause of density has to do with how many protons and neutrons the material contains.

In this elements worksheet, students learn about the elements found in the actinide group including those that occur naturally and those that have been artificially produced. This worksheet has 5 short answer questions.
