In this chemistry overview worksheet, students calculated the volume of different gases and liquids given in a word problem. Students had to calculate the molecular mass and write the empirical formula and the molecular formula.

Students investigate empirical formulas for molecules. In this empirical formulas lesson plan, students use paper ions to form formulas and they show these are empirical formulas. They use ions of carbon and hydrogen showing electron...

For this chemistry worksheet, learners write structural formulas for the products and illustrate stereo chemistry when necessary. Then they write the structures for the molecular formulas given for reactants and products for each problem.

Nine action-packed organic chemistry exercises are contained in this mini-unit on carbon containing compounds. Examples include constructing models of alkanes, producing aromatic esters, and preparing pigments for paint and dyes....

Because of the work of John Dalton, we are able to write formulas for compounds. The hands-on experiment has scholars prepare a compound from its elements. Using mass data, individuals write the empirical formula for the compound.

In this stoichiometry worksheet, students solve a variety of problems including finding empirical and molecular formulas, determining molarities of solutions, determining molecular weights of compounds and calculating the percent mass of...

Students construct models of hydrocarbon molecules using candy and toothpicks. In this hydrocarbons lesson plan, students are given a sheet with the molecular formulas of hydrocarbons. As a group, they construct each molecule using...

Students explore the concept of molecular modeling and differentiate between saturated and unsaturated compounds. In small groups, they identify molecular formulas, complete a chart comparing alkanes, alkenes, and alkynes, and construct...

Young scholars study how to write chemical fomulas by reviewing the combinations atoms form into compounds. They write a procedure to test various substances and name the compounds and write formulas. As they construct models for...

During this hands-on activity, young chemists build molecular models based on the Lewis dot structure before studying valence shell electron pair repulsion theory. 

In this molecular compounds worksheet, students write the prefixes for the numbers one through ten. They name thirty compounds given their formulas. They write the formulas for twenty six compounds given their names.

Students assess how to go from writing ionic chemical formulas to nomenclature and naming chemical compounds. They brainstorm former studies and share their thoughts in small groups. A list of everyday products (shampoos, toothpaste,...

In this percent composition worksheet, students find the percentages of atoms in compounds and they determine empirical formulas given the percent of each atom in a compound.

For this chemical compounds worksheet, students complete a graphic organizer by determining the electron dot formula, molecular shape, bond angle, bond polarity, and molecular polarity for 7 given compounds.

Do you have mole problems? If so, call Avogadro at 602-2140. The lesson starts with pupils working independently to solve for molar mass of ionic compounds. Then they learn to solve for percent composition and later perform an...

Students examine the structure of molecules, their formula, and percentage composition of each element in the compound. They construct an organic compound with different functional groups using a modeling kit, and draw a 3-D structure...

Public health trainees read and write a summary of the article, "A Whiff of Danger". The article is not available through the link, but can be found on the National Center for Biotechnology Information website. After summarizing,...

A few basic facts about lattice energy are listed at the top of the page, including the formula used for calculations. Two charts follow: one for lattice energy and another for ion sizes. There is no work to do on this handout, but it...

Young scientists construct an understanding of molecular compounds in this hands-on science lesson. Using LEGO® to model the atoms of different elements, learners build molecules based on the chemical formulas of common compounds.

In these creative hands-on activities, students construct several different molecular models that represent substances that play an essential role in our nutritional needs. Using gum drops and toothpicks, students design the models....

If you want your young chemists to fully grasp the behavior of gases, here is an all-inclusive lesson plan. It provides handouts of detailed instructions for three laboratory activities, assessment reccomendations, and a list of...

In this chemistry worksheet, students examine the concepts of mole and molarity in order to apply in the laboratory setting. The sheet includes in depth background information.

The purpose of this lesson involves reviewing nomenclature and molecular formulas as well as introducing naming molecular compounds and identifying acids. The students investigate and understand how conservation of energy and matter is...

Students research chemical formulas and balance chemical equations.  For this chemical equations lesson students complete a class activity on chemical equations and answer questions.
