Water water everywhere. Check out this video clip and test understanding about the cycle of water from the earth to the atmosphere.

In this science activity, students investigate the water cycle by testing the water evaporated from leaves (transpiration). They investigate concepts of evaporation and the movement of water through the different states of the water...

Students apply their understanding of the natural water cycle and the urban stormwater water cycle, as well as the processes involved in both cycles to hypothesize how the flow of water is affected by altering precipitation.

Create a water cycle story and storyboard.

Students learn about the Earth's water cycle, especially about evaporation. Once a dam is constructed, its reservoir becomes a part of the region's natural hydrologic cycle by receiving precipitation, storing runoff water and evaporating...

Explains the different stages in the water cycle while covering important vocabulary. Supported by lots of visuals and includes a good water cycle animation.

This online textbook chapter discusses dynamic equilibrium between liquids and gases, boiling liquids, and particle attractions. Many pictures help to explain the concepts. Also find a detailed chapter review at the end to check for...

This 14-page document contains advanced information about Bose-Einstein condensation, providing historical background for the topic and explaining how BEC was demonstrated in 1995 by research laboratories. Requires ."pdf," software to...

This study guide reviews the main ideas in the liquids chapter in this online textbook. Includes a chapter map, goals, a checklist, and answers to the chapter review.

This presentation, available in .pdf format, about liquids includes a chapter map, main ideas, and many pictures to help understand the chapter. Detailed charts go along well with the information.

Gives a brief introduction to Bose-Einstein Condensation (BEC) and how it was demonstrated at a laboratory at the NIST.

In the science lab, students will create and observe the conditions necessary to make a cloud in a bottle.

Learners will listen to a story about the water cycle, observe how water droplets form on a glass of icy water, then draw and label a picture showing condensation.

A page describing (in part) the distinction between energy, temperature and heat. Includes a graphic illustrating the quantity of energy needed to transform water between various states. Methods of thermal energy transfer (convection,...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In the following online tutorial students will describe a liquid according to the kinetic-molecular theory. They will also learn how a liquid exhibits surface...

Learn how states of matter can change as heat is added to a system.

Five chemistry lessons about phase changes between the states of mattter complete with handouts and animations.

This lesson will introduce a phase change diagram, and show how a substance changes from one phase to another. It is 1 of 3 in the series titled "Phase Changes."

This Homewood City Schools site has an outline form and contains lots of information about the classification and composition of matter. Some of the topics covered are matter and temperature, changes in state, composition of matter, and...

Explains the three states of water, how the water cycle works, and the role of temperature. Includes a fun fact quiz.

Find out more about rainy days when you check out this resource, which features hands-on interactive activities, experiments, fun facts, and more.

An indexing page for the HyperPhysics site. This page includes links to a variety of pages at the site which contain information related to phase changes. Each individual page consists of informative graphics and clear explanations.

This site contains an interactive activity in which students can learn about the three states of matter. There is also a factsheet that lists numerous properties of liquids, solids, and gases. The factsheet also uses water as an example...

Students learn about the techniques engineers have developed for changing ocean water into drinking water, including thermal and membrane desalination. They begin by reviewing the components of the natural water cycle. They see how...
