[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students will use the physical and chemical properties of matter to categorize the various forms of matter.

Students act as chemical engineers and use LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robotics to record temperatures and learn about the three states of matter. Properties of matter can be measured in various ways, including volume, mass, density and...

This interactive tutorial begins with an understanding of the structure of matter. Understanding charge as a fundamental quantity demands that we have an understanding of the structure of an atom. Learn the atomic structure of an atom an...

Matter changes both physically and chemically on a fairly regular basis. Through these activities students will challenge their understanding of the changes that may take place with different types of matter.

An interactive simulation will heat, cool and compress atoms and molecules. Watch as they change between solid, liquid and gas phases. Recognize that different substances have different properties which will affect the temperatures for...

States of Matter is an educational activity for kids to learn about the different properties of matter. The lesson will introduce solids, liquids, and gases. Students will then be assessed through a sorting activity where they will...

For this activity about matter, learners investigate the three states of matter by participating in a small group lab. Students will observe, question, and investigate the properties of solids, liquids, and gases.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of state of matter and the three common states of matter and their differences.

A resource provided to Grade 8 teachers to address the School District of Philadelphia's Core Curriculum on the topic of Matter. It covers properties and states of matter, elements, compounds, mixtures, atoms, and the periodic table....

This site provides an illustrated and animated story that seeks to answer several questions. What are atoms made of? What is keeping a nucleus intact? What happens if you try to separate two quarks? Are quarks fundamental?

In this video, Brian Bennett defines Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, and Avogadro's Law to help describe the properties of gas. [2:50] Followed by a short quiz and a list of additional resources to explore.

Take an interactive quiz over the properties of matter. After completing the quiz, check your score, and then revisit any incorrect question for further review

Find out the basic characteristics and main properties of all matter.

Find out about physical and chemical properties of matter, and then compare extensive and intensive property characteristics.

A podcast tutorial describing the main characteristics of matter. [1:02]

Often we find that different phases of pure substances can exist in equilibrium with one another. Let us consider an important gedankenexperiment (Latin-German for "thought experiment") in which we boil water. Ordinary water boiling is...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In the following online tutorial students identify the chemical properties of a substance and describe chemical changes and differentiate them from physical changes....

Explore the concept of matter in this Spanish-language encyclopedia entry. This site features the properties of matter, the Law of Conservation of Matter, and other important features of matter.

A slideshow illustrating the science of matter from its properties, states, and classification to mixtures and the Periodic Table of Elements.
