Seventh graders investigate the particulate level of solids, liquids, and gases. They examine how the particle method show the interplay between scientific theories and evidence.

Students identify and describe transition metals. They discuss alloys and their benefits. Students research one common, alloy, its composition, properties, and uses. They are asked for some common properties of most transition metals....

High schoolers discuss transition metals, their properties, and where they are located on the periodic table as well as why transition metals are ideal for coins. After discussion, they conduct an experiment using copper in the form of...

In this chemical change worksheet, learners conduct 4 experiments set up around the room. They follow the instructions at each station for each experiment and list the physical properties and observe any changes at each station. Students...

Students explore physical and chemical changes. For this chemistry lesson plan, students will go outside to observe changes seen in nature. Students will then work in the lab to identify changes at different stations prior to doing a...

In this organic chemistry worksheet, students compare inorganic and organic compounds. They write structural and molecular formulas for given molecules.

Students explore liquids and solids by conducting in class experiments. In this matter lesson, students define the properties of matter and how heat can change those properties. Students experiment with heating objects such as butter and...

Why do some items feel colder when they are the same temperature? How should you keep your soda cold? What makes the wind blow? These are just some of the things middle schoolers discover when completing a lesson on...

During a macromolecule lab, young chemists perform multiple tests, including iodine starch tests, to determine if eight mystery foods contain lipids, sugars, or starches.

Who can grow the best crystals? Challenge class members to develop strategies for enhancing growth in the crystals. Through a lab investigation, learners study the properties of crystals and test the effectiveness of different...

There are some amazing ways species evolve to survive. From large ears to sneezing salt, learners read about these interesting adaptations in an interactive lesson. Great to supplement an in-class lesson, it also works well as a remote...

Students model the arrangement of particles in a liquid. They use the model, to demonstrate how a gas is formed from a liquid with no increase in temperature as energy is added. Pupils model the arrangement and movement of gas particles.

Eighth graders explore the chemical and physical properties of a variety of elements in a lab setting. They organize the data they collect onto a spreadsheet and then choose one element from the periodic table to research. They...

Students examine molecules and the changes in energy of a system.  For this energy systems lesson students complete a lab activity and describe changes of state.

In this chemistry terminology worksheet, students review and discuss nineteen terms associated with chemistry and then locate and circle each term in a word search puzzle.

In this chemistry worksheet, students examine the concept of covalent bonds with the assessment. The answer key is included on page 3 and 4.

In this physical equilibrium worksheet, students compare polar and non-polar compounds and the solubility of specific solutes in solvents. Students calculate molar heat, molar solubility, and molality for specific reactions. This...

For this matter worksheet, learners review the states of matter and the gas law formulas and equations. Students then complete 7 multiple choice questions and 6 problems.

Eighth graders examine the development of the different temperature scales. They experiment with hot and cold temperatures.

Ninth graders participate in classroom discussions, demonstrations and hands-on laboratory activities about pure substances and mixtures with a focus on common household materials. They investigate: What is a pure substance? What is a...

Students discover that density is considered a property and that cutting an object in half does not affect its density. They examine the densities of many common substances and make connections.

In this physical and chemical properties worksheet, students read a 2 page article, identify 10 changes as physical or chemical characteristics and decide whether 3 combination of objects are chemical or physical mixtures and explain why.

Students are introduced to concepts in an AP Chemistry class. They work together to complete experiments on different materials. They discuss the results of the experiments.

Students create videos about an element on the periodic table. In this element lesson, students work with partners to create a 1-2 minute video giving interesting information about their element. They include the name, symbol, atomic...
