Comparing Physical and Chemical Properties

Super scientists visit ten stations to predict, observe, and draw conclusions about the physical and chemical changes that occur when different states of matter—liquid, solid, and gas—are placed under a variety of conditions. To...

In this properties instructional activity, students will label 9 examples of either physical or chemical properties. Kids will complete 2 short answer questions about physical properties and the differences between chemical and physical...

Students explore the physical and chemical properties of matter including phase changes and physical and chemical transitions. Information gathered is imported into video and edited to produce a movie.

Newcomers to chemistry compare hydrogen peroxide to water, realizing that the difference of one oxygen atom significantly affects the chemical properties. Other pairs of compounds and their formulas are also examined. A few chemical...

When did the chemical change occur? Learners explore the differences between the physical and the chemical as part of the Chemistry PowerPoints series. They differentiate between extensive versus intensive properties, physical versus...

These slides summarize the properties that define materials. The categories of physical and chemical changes that are used to describe substances are listed and students will find the examples of those changes useful. You could set the...

The physical properties of matter, the chemical properties of matter, and their application to forensic science are the focus of a short presentation designed to introduce these concepts to middle schoolers.

Nothing says organization quite like a table. The third lesson in a six-part Mixtures and Solutions unit teaches young scientists about elements and the periodic table. They learn how the periodic table is organized and about the...

Does matter really matter? Properties of matter are discussed by Sam and RJ: mass, volume, and density. They differentiate between mass and weight. They explain how to measure these properties. Make sure to teach your class about other...

Students study the difference between physical and chemical properties. They also discuss changes in matter, known as physical and chemical changes. They observe and discuss several demonstrations of both physical and chemical changes
