  Activity: Mystery Gang Empirical Formulae Mark as Favorite (24 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will determine empirical formulas for samples of trace evidence collected from various crime scene scenarios. They will use the information to link a criminal to a particular crime scene.

• 

  Periodic Table, Elements, Percent Composition | Middle School

  Activity: The Universe of Elements Mark as Favorite (6 Favorites)

  In this activity, students are introduced to the periodic table and its elements. Student will discuss that all material in the Universe is composed of elements and that the atom is the smallest particle that still has the physical and chemical properties of any given element. Students will engage in an activity to determine the percent composition of common elements in the universe, and based on their results they will hypothesize the identity of each element based on its relative abundance.
