Carbon as a building block for organic compounds is demonstrated by diagrams and facts for its bonding style.  Saturated and unstaturated hydrocarbons are detailed and facts about biological compounds such as proteins, nucleic...

In chemistry, organic means something contains a carbon base. A helpful presentation starts by defining macromolecules as large organic carbon molecules. Scholars answer questions about each topic on the associated worksheet. It covers...

There are so many topics touched upon in this Jeopardy-style science game, that it is difficult to classify! The categories include electricity, matter, ecology, earth and space, and scientific investigation. This would best be used at...

As the title implies, this PowerPoint defines and illustrates the basic terms involved with describing matter. Phases of matter, atomic structure, and the different categories of compounds are included. Slides are simple and uncluttered....

A color-coded periodic table identifies organic elements, major minerals, and trace elements. Oxidation states are highlighted and types of chemical bonding are annotated. The electron energy level chart is explained. Though not all of...

Steel is an example of homogeneous mixture, also called an alloy, which is made of iron and carbon. The presentation introduces learners to elements, compounds, and mixtures. They explore their similarities and differences, and then take...

Thirty-seven slides thoroughly shed light upon the four classes of matter: elements, compounds, mixtures, and solutions. Also covered are chemical symbols, molecules, and chemical equations. The colors and fonts chosen for the...

Details about matter and how it is classified are included here. The slides, with differences about homogenous and heterogeneous mixtures, have diagrams to support the definitions and your class will appreciate the summaries to assist...

What's the matter? Gas, solid, liquid, or plasma. The presentation covers how to describe and identify matter, changes in matter, types of matter, measuring matter, particles of matter, Democritus, and John Dalton's Atomic Theory.

An extremely thorough presentation walks new chemists through the basics of matter. There really isn't a unifying theme, however So many topics are covered: forces, elements, atomic structure, chemical properties, compounds, quarks,...
