In this chemistry instructional activity, students balance each of the equations listed on the sheet. There are twenty-one equations to solve and complete.

Students explore chemical solutions. In this chemistry lesson, students investigate the relationship between three related experiments about solutions. Students determine variables that affect the chemical concentration of each solution.

View molecular structure for various compounds with three-dimensional color images. 

Students demonstrate their understanding of a chemical process.  In this exploratory lesson students create a clay animation that shows how a specific type of chemical bond. 

Students review the scientific method and basic lab skills, and practice how chemical employees work in teams to follow the scientific method. Students learn about various job requirements and responsibilities in the chemical industry.

Students research the importance of Hydrogen as a potential fuel source. They work in groups to used the internet in order to research this topic. They participate in an electrolysis experiment and a power point presentation in order...

Students create a piston/cylinder assembly using SolidWorks. For this technology lesson, students calculate volume, pressure and Boyle's law constant. They simulate equalizing air pressure by moving the piston out of the cylinder.

Students explain the basic concepts of polymerization. Students participate in a lab to create a crude preparation of carboxyl esterase and test its effectiveness in reducing the residual monomer in an emulsion such as paint.

Students observe the growth of a seed, predict what will happen when seeds are planted without soil, and conduct an experiment using a hydroponics system.

In this science worksheet, students examine the physical changes associated with the change of temperature and mixtures. The answers are included.

Students study the development of batteries. In this electrochemistry lesson, students compare the different types of batteries. They explore its applications especially in the medical field.

Learners identify the different types of batteries available in the market. In this science lesson, students discuss how to select the right batteries for a car.

Students perform several tests on liquids. In this general science activity, students compare the properties of polymeric and nonpolymeric liquids. They explain the composition and importance of macromolecules.

What effects do temperature and carbon dioxide levels have on the zooplankton of Antarctica? This concluding lesson plan in a short unit on climate change and the ocean helps environmental scientists answer these questions. After...

Open this lesson by demonstrating the production of acidic carbon dioxide gas by activated yeast. Emerging ecologists then experiment with seashells to discover the effect of ocean acidification on shelled marine organisms. They measure...

Students investigate molecular movement while studying how to perform a chemistry investigation.

Students explore and evaluate several distance learning Web sites. They defend whether or not they would like to participate in the distance learning experience by either writing a proposal for including this distance learning project...

High schoolers are using a paper chromatography study that is suitable for introductory biology. The absorption spectra studies and gel electrophoresis studies are appropriate for students who have complete both introductory biology and...

Students work together to design their own experiment to test developed hypothesis about the minerals in water. As a class, they discuss the main components of water quality and describe the chemistry behind the hardness assay. They...

High schoolers describe the relationship between temperature and volume. In this chemistry instructional activity, students perform an experiment and record their their results. They use Charles' law to explain their observations.

Ninth graders study the configuration of atoms in molecules to see that it determines the molecule's properties.  In this chemistry lesson students divide into groups and complete their assigned task.

After having a class discussion on the three states of matter, young scientists utilize the wonderful substance, Oobleck in order to experience something that changes states of matter. They also create "sparkle jars" which...

During this hands-on activity, young chemists build molecular models based on the Lewis dot structure before studying valence shell electron pair repulsion theory.
