Curated OER
Pauli's Magical Water
Students predict the shape of molecules using VSEPR theory. In this chemistry lesson, students differentiate a polar and nonpolar molecule. They discuss why water's polarity is very important.
Curated OER
Chemical Bonding
Eighth graders identify the three main types of chemical bonds. In this chemistry lesson, 8th graders draw Lewis dot diagrams of elements and determine the bond formed. They create a model water molecule.
Curated OER
Solubility
In this solubility worksheet, students determine which solute will be more soluble in the solvent listed. Students complete 7 matching and 3 problems to solve.
Curated OER
Oh - The Bonds of Matter!
Eighth graders identify the types of bonds elements form. In this chemistry lesson, 8th graders represent valence electrons with dot structures. They draw and label different atoms.
