Students explore oxygen and its physical and chemical propeties.  In this investigative lesson students complete several experiments using oxygen.

Students complete an experiment to determine if there are bad microbes in food processing.In this bad microbe experiment, students use apples to see how they react to oxygen. Students test apples with chemicals to observe the changes.

Students conduct an experiment to test the reactivity of metals and non-metals. In this chemistry lesson students test metals with different chemicals to observe the reaction. The results are used to categorize the metals.

If you are not part of the solution, then you are part of the precipitate. The presentation covers solutions, suspensions, solubility, dissociation, and acid/base reactions. This is the 19th lesson in a series of 26.

Students design and create a compost pile in order to study the Nitrogen Cycle. They then use the scientific method to determine if plants grow better when they add organic matter from their compost pile to the plant's soil.

Sixth graders examine the health benefits of rice. In this food benefits instructional activity, 6th graders discover the nutritious benefits of rice. Students research Celiac Sprue disease and how rice benefits the people with this...

In this carboxylic acid worksheet, students are given five problems to complete. Included are to name 10 given compounds, draw four compounds given their names, and complete 6 chemical reactions.

In this solubility worksheet, students calculate the final concentrations of the ions involved in a chemical mixture. Students calculate the solubility of different compounds. This worksheet has 13 problems to solve.

Students view a video about the formation of precipitates. They complete a worksheet that asks them to identify what makes a compound form and what holds it together.

Students explain the role of stratospheric ozone and predict at least three ways in which depleted ozone would change her/his lifestyle. They then describe the process by which chlorine or bromine compounds can break down ozone molecules.

Students predict the product of chemical reaction using the solubility rules. In this chemistry lesson plan, students balance ionic equation. They perform a lab to check if their predicted products are correct.

Students discuss what the m in E=mc2 represent. They relate that mass in a chemical reaction is always conserved. Students convey that atoms rearrange themselves in chemical reactions to form different molecules and compounds.

Young scholars examine the effect of chemicals from marine plants or animals on predator's preferences. In this ecology lesson, students conduct taste tests and collect necessary data. They write their conclusion after...

Students research chemical components of coal, as well as environmental health impacts of mining and burning coal. They discuss conservation of mass as it relates to combustion of organic compounds.

In this acids and bases worksheet, students apply the Bronsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases to write the products for the given acid-base reactions. This worksheet has 7 problems to solve.

Fourth graders improve their understanding of Graham's Law by using properties of gases to evaluate the rate of effusion of two compounds as they vaporize. They engage in a lab which elevates their understanding of the properties of gases.

Second graders examine the effects of acid rain on statues and buildings. They participate in an experiment in which they use different chemicals on building materials. They observe and record their observations.

Pupils initially engage in online research and consult print materials to identify a compound to produce. Once a selection has been made, individually, students conduct lab experiments to isolate substances. The end product is a...

All different types of bonding are covered in this PowerPoint, along with details of resulting bond and molecule shapes. The definitions of traditional molecule shapes and characteristics of behavior are very useful to assist in...

In this matter worksheet, students review the structure of matter including elements, atoms, and the periodic table. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.

In a comprehensive role playing activity, teens play the parts of different stakeholders in the realm of acidic oceans. They research, debate, and create a presentation from the perspective of either ocean organisms, the fishing...

Want to hear a joke about sodium? Na. Young scientists test various materials to identify if they include protein, starch, and glucose by using the Biuret test, iodine starch test, and Benedict's test respectively. After practicing with...

This concise collection of images speaks volumes about the trends in the periodic table of elements. Different versions of the periodic table are displayed demonstrating different trends. Teachers' notes are included to assist your...

Arkansas ranks first in the entire world in the production of bromine! Here is a lesson which guides middle schoolers through a study about the formation and history of Arkansas' bromine reserves. They also looks at the many uses of...
