The Unmixables: Investigating Immiscible Liquids
Students build an understanding of the properties of liquids and research the immiscible properties of different milks through group experiments. In this immiscible liquids experiment, students investigate what happens when certain...
Science Friday
Cooking with Chemistry
Use class time to perfect your hollandaise sauce with a chemistry lesson plan. It includes two activities to teach about immiscible liquids, emulsifiers, and creating a stable homogenous mixture. Young scientists first mix liquids in a...

Density and Miscibility
The liquids did not mix — so what do density columns have to do with it? The seventh part in a series of nine provides the theoretical explanation of why density columns do not mix. The activity covers the topics related to mixing and...

Immiscible Liquids and Density
Young scholars will make a lava lamp. In this density lesson, students will combine water and oil and make observations, then add salt to the oil and observe the oil sink, then float again when the salt dissolves in the water.
Curated OER
The Nature Of Dissolving Processes
Students examine the rule of "like dissolves like." They define and describe solutions and solubility models on molecular liquids, ionic solids, and molecular solids.
Curated OER
Heterogeneous Equilibrium: Measurement of a Partition Coefficient
In this chemistry worksheet, students examine a concept in science and then use the knowledge in application by conducting an experiment.

Making Mayonnaise - An Edible Emulsion
Students find a way to mix oil and water. In this emulsion lesson, students attempt to mix oil and water, then add egg yolk to the mixture to serve as an emulsifier and observe the results.

Through Thick or Thin!!!
Young scholars differentiate between high and low viscosity. Students collect, graph, and interpret data, then quantitatively measure polymer solids. Young scholars experiment with a household example of an emulsion polymer.

Ocean in a Bottle
Young scholars investigate pollution in water. In this pollution lesson, students participate in an experiment to simulate water pollution. Young scholars observe how the water reacts to the "pollution."
Curated OER
What is Soap?
Students investigate soap, how it is made and its structure. In this soap lesson plan, students observe a demonstration of soap being made. Students observe the properties of soap and how soap performs in "real-life" situations like...

Ocean in a Bottle
Learners create an enclosed ocean in a bottle and add different pollutants to explore the effects of pollution on the environment.
