Introducing Chemistry Vocabulary
Students study vocabulary based on chemistry terms by creating flash cards. For this scientific vocabulary lesson, students utilize a chemistry word or phrase to create a card which uses the term, describes it in the student's...
Curated OER
Deposition
Students follow carefully designed instructions to bond silver to glass thus creating a mirror. The process used, Brashear's Process, uses sugar rather than formaldehyde to reduce the compounds, but many of the chemicals are dangerous,...
Curated OER
Bauxite: More Than A Small Town
Students identify the mineral bauxite and its impact on the community and the world. They use the Internet to research the mineral and its uses. They draw a picture depicting the uses of bauxite.

Students apply the principles of chemistry to investigate the concept of how a hydrogen powered car works. They study the electrochemical reactions that provide the energy source. Students also record observations in the functioning of a...
Curated OER
Lemon Battery
Students construct their own battery made of lemons. In this electrochemistry lesson, students explain why lemons conduct electricity. They perform a series of experiments to investigate its conductivity.
Curated OER
Combating Corrosion
Students perform an experiment to show the chemical reactions that occur when metal corrodes. They apply the results of the experiment to the conservation efforts of art curators trying to restore an ancient Greek bronze. This lesson...
