Take the difficulty out of classifying matter with an easy-to-follow activity that makes distinguishing between pure substances and mixtures simple. Scholars explore how matter is grouped between two categories—pure substances and...

In this matter worksheet, students answer 6 questions about matter. Students distinguish between homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures, they identify elements and compounds and they distinguish between pure substances and mixtures.

In this elements, compounds, and mixtures worksheet, students answer questions about the properties of elements, mixtures, and compounds. Students identify the physical changes that is made to a substance to determine if it is an element.

For this chemistry worksheet, students identify and describe that density is the ratio of the mass of the substance to the volume of the substance at a given temperature. They also respond to various questions that refer to density in...

Chemistry explorers prepare a crystalline derivative and find its melting point. Once they discover the melting point, they can identify whether the substance is pure or an aldehyde or ketone. This outstanding laboratory activity helps...

In this solubility and intermolecular force instructional activity, high schoolers are given 26 clues about forces between molecules such as hydrogen bonds and London forces and about solubility of solutions.

This isn't your typical basic lesson—it's more acidic! Learners use pH information to determine the hydroxide ion concentration of different substances and then use these values to analyze information. The calculations require...

In this water worksheet, learners read about hydrogen bonds in water and the differences in electronegativity between the oxygen atom and the two hydrogen atoms in water. Students answer four questions about the structure of water and...

Mixing substances together causes their properties to change. This resource illustrates that concept for fifth graders by having them consider four questions that have to do with buoyancy and boiling point. Learners begin to understand...
