Reaction Paper

How can you tell the difference between endothermic and exothermic reactions? Chemistry scholars perform and observe two chemical reactions, measure the temperature throughout, then draw conclusions about changes in energy from their...

Equip pupils with tools to determine reaction rates as they explore conditions that cause a reaction to increase or decrease. They also discuss why this occurs and predict the next steps as they take part in a series of experiments. 

More than 90 percent of chemical products are made using a catalyst. Lesson demonstrates the way a catalyst changes the rate of reaction without altering the chemical reaction. A catalyst doesn't appear as a reactant or a product, yet it...

In this chemistry instructional activity, students balance 6 chemical equations and name the types of reaction represented as well as complete 2 short answer questions.

Six different redox reactions are set up in the lab by your chemistry class. Inquisitors methodically test each one and eventually order them according to oxidizing strength. This is a neat way to have the learners perform more than one...

Why does some ink bleed through paper, and other ink doesn't? Practice some paper chromatography to separate the colors from a pen with an interactive experiment for middle and high schoolers. Learners use a variety of solutions to track...

Have your class write secret messages using Goldenrod paper and a basic liquid such as ammonia. This is a great way to illustrate the chemical reactions between acids and bases. This could lead to an exploration of chemical reactions and...

Have your class write secret messages using Goldenrod paper and a basic liquid such as ammonia. This is a great way to illustrate the chemical reactions between acids and bases. This could lead to an exploration of chemical reactions and...

Chemistry hopefuls experience four different types of chemical reactions: single displacement, double displacement, synthesis, and decomposition. They will apply identification tests to the products as well. While this is absolutely a...

Does increasing temperature increase the rate of a chemical reaction? Junior chemists examine the effects of temperature on reaction rate using an engaging interactive. Pupils select the temperature of the reaction vessel, then observe...
