Learners categorize items into one of the three states of matter. They participate in a demonstration in which they represent particles of matter. Finally, they complete an experiment in which they "race" top see who can make acetone...

Young scholars learn how science affects foods. In this chemical reactions lesson, students make two kinds of ice cream. They evaluate the different changes based on the ingredients.

In this participial adjectives worksheet, students choose the correct way to complete the sentences with adjectives either ending in -ed or -ing. Students complete 16 sentences.

Freezing temperature, the temperature at which a substance turns from liquid to solid, and melting temperature, the temperature at which a substance turns from a solid to a liquid, are characteristic physical properties. In this...

Zander is on a camping trip. Join him, and help him learn about boiling and melting points.

Engage students in the study of the ocean and saltwater with these activities. Students will see that saltwater has different physical properties than freshwater - mainly density. This lesson can serve as a springboard into other...

A page from the University of Maryland Physics Lecture Demonstration Facility. Provides directions for a teacher demonstration of the effect of an ionic solute upon the freezing point of water. Shows apparatus and set-up; provides...

[Free Registration/Login Required] Explore how solutes can keep roads clear of ice in the winter by learning how different types and concentrations of a solute affect the freezing point of a solution.

Explore survival strategies of animals in freezing climates. Investigate the role of glucose (sugar solution) when used as an antifreeze and the relationship between temperature and metabolism.

The concepts of melting point and freezing point are explained on this site.

In this activity, Students can use an EasyTemp temperature probe to determine the normal melting temperature of ice. They will then study how the addition of salt to the melting ice affects its melting temperature. They will finally...

In this activity, students can use a calorimeter to measure the amount of heat needed to melt ice and determine the heat of fusion for ice. EasyData is needed for this activity.

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,...

Students will look at what happens to different types of matter when they have a change of state.

A page from the University of Maryland Physics Lecture Demonstration Facility. Provides directions for a teacher demonstration on the phenomenon of regelation. Shows apparatus and set-up; provides suggestions. Easily adaptable as a...

Do you need to know a specific value of a specific quantity for any given substance? If so, this is the place. Find the heat capacity, heats of vaporization and fusion, and much more from this page.

Answer the thermal energy transfer questions correctly, and advance around the baseball diamond.
