For this intermolecular forces worksheet, students perform a simple experiment with water to observe the intermolecular forces that hold water together as they fill a beaker as much as possible. They explain the results of their...

After a short introduction, chemistry aces get right into drawing electron dot diagrams for covalent bonds. There are only three questions to answer, so this is not a comprehensive worksheet. It can be used when introducing your class to...

There are 17 multiple choice questions on this periodic table test. The focus is on properties of the elements by group and period. The exam is not formatted well, making it a little difficult to read. There is also a typographical...

In a well-prepared Jeopardy-style game, your chemisty class can review the periodic table. Questions cover the element groups, some history, atomic number, atomic and ionic radii, electronegativity, and the shielding effect. What a fun...

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 trends in the periodic table worksheet, students plot the ionization energy vs. atomic number and they plot atomic radius vs. atomic number of the first 20 elements. Students analyze their graphs and answer questions about the...

Time to put the knowledge to the test! Young scholars take what they know about the periodic table and build their own from scratch. Using clues from 26 different elements, they place elements in a blank periodic table. The clues include...

In this polar molecules worksheet, students complete a graphic organizer by writing in the bond type, electron dot diagram, and the type of compound for the chemical compounds given.

In this chemical compounds worksheet, students review the different types of bonding, define the octet rule, and draw Lewis structures (electron-dot diagrams) for given compounds. This worksheet has 7 fill in the blank, 5 short answer...

For this elements learning exercise, learners complete two graphic organizers by comparing the element symbol and melting point for given elements. Then students plot a graph of their atomic radius against proton number.

Primo Levi wrote a collection of short stories comparing his life from Italy to Auschwitz to elements in the periodic table. Pupils read an excerpt from his book and research the characteristics of various elements. Then, they make a...

For this water worksheet, learners read about hydrogen bonds in water and the differences in electronegativity between the oxygen atom and the two hydrogen atoms in water. Students answer four questions about the structure of water and...

Guide your chemistry class through the periodic table so that they are able to identify atomic radii, electronegativity, and ionization energy. Give them three metals to place in water to observe reactivity. Teach them to write electron...

The 20th installment in a series of 36 focuses on the characteristics of the p-block elements. Learners discuss, read about, and answer questions pertaining to the occurrence of these elements in nature, their electron configurations,...

This is one cool resource for teaching about polarity! Chemistry scholars observe electron distribution and molecular shape as they select different non-metals and form bonds. The interactive offers two views, surface charge and electron...

It's molecule magic! Skillful scholars explore the effects of different atoms on molecular polarization using an intuitive interactive. The resource displays the charge at different locations on the molecule, then adapts as the user...

In this chemical bonding worksheet, students review the different types of bonds and calculate the number of valence electrons in molecules. This worksheet has 11 matching and 15 multiple choice questions.

The fifth lesson plan of seven in the series outlines an in-depth analysis of the periodic table. After direct instruction, pupils take turns practicing in the group before beginning independent study. The assessments...

Without water there would be no life on this planet. Biology learners find out why by reading this handout. Create a worksheet of questions to answer after the reading. Follow it up with quick demonstrations or laboratory activities that...

In this chemistry worksheet, students examine the oxidation state in order to apply it in the laboratory setting. The sheet includes in depth background information.

A complete overview of oxidation, reduction, and how electrons are moved in respiration. You could use this slide show to elaborate on the concept of harvesting stored energy, and to summarize the stages of aerobic and anaerobic metabolism.

A simple set of slides shows chemistry novices how to name binary compounds containing two nonmetals. Instruction and examples are given, making this a practical presentation for your class. Please note that the links to worksheets on...

You can't tell by the title, but this is a functional periodic table of elements. Incorporating bright colors, lucid text, and easily operated features, this application serves as a valuable reference tool for your chemistry class.

Although there are only 16 questions here, this chemistry handout makes a terrific unit assessment. It queries youngsters on the properties of ionic and covalent compounds, relates bond length tho stability and enrgy, compares polar and...
