Density and Solubility of Liquids

Young scholars experiment with mixtures of matter. In this matter lesson, students investigate which liquids form a solution when mixed together and which do not. Young scholars also identify which solids can be separated from matter.

Students explore the changing density of water. In this physics lesson, students investigate how an object's density determines whether it will float or sink in water. They explain why this unique property of is important to living things.

Take young naturalists on an exploration of the world's tropical rainforests with this extensive collection of lessons and activities. Whether its creating leaf and flower prints or investigating the absorption spectrum of chlorophyl,...

Find out how matter fits into more than one state with this entertaining video that details non-newtonian fluids and a step-by-step instruction for how to make oobleck. 

Extend your class's observation skills with a video about additional properties of matter. The video covers the ways an item can be altered, including its hardness, malleability, conductivity, and magnetism as information you can use to...

Why do bricks make terrible windows? Learn about how the different properties of matter, including transparency, reflectivity, and freezing, boiling, and melting points can help you observe what they are, as well as indicate their...

Put those observation skills to the test with a fun physical science video about the properties of matter. Using an example of stackable blocks, the video prompts learners to find the length, width, height, and volume of an object, as...

How do everyday materials behave in unusual environments? is the driving question of this entertaining video about the properties of matter. To answer the question, the boiling point of water is examined at ground level, at the top of...

Students explore the polarity of a water molecule and how it affects the properties of water. They explore separation of water and why it occurs, then make predictions regarding separation based on the properties of the liquid.

What are the properties of water? Lead your class through a series of activities to answer this question. Discuss findings and interpretations with the class as a whole, encouraging them to speak in complete sentences and to make...
