26 – 33 of 33 Classroom Resources
-
Intermolecular Forces, Solubility, Intermolecular Forces | High School
Lab: Physical Properties (High School) Mark as Favorite (12 Favorites)
In this lesson, students investigate how intermolecular forces effect physical properties by investigating substances’ melting points as well as solubility.
-
Density, Molecular Motion | High School, Middle School
Lab: Density Lab Mark as Favorite (13 Favorites)
In this lab, students determine the density of several liquids and solids. They then identify an unknown metal by determining its density. They then calculate the percent error within the class for a specific sample.
-
Entropy, Kinetic Molecular Theory, Molecular Motion, Intermolecular Forces | High School
Activity: Connecting States to Entropy Mark as Favorite (10 Favorites)
In this activity, students use blocks to model different states of matter and the Kinetic Molecular Theory to understand the concept of entropy. This is a concept mandated by SAT level or AP level high school chemistry class.
-
Colligative Properties, Boiling Point, Molality, Concentration, Boiling point elevation, Graphing, Accuracy, Physical Properties, Error analysis | High School
Lab: Changing Water's Boiling Point Mark as Favorite (8 Favorites)
Download this lab in which students will explore colligative properties in a quantitative approach.
-
Observations, Combustion, Phase Changes | High School
Lab: Observing a Candle Mark as Favorite (2 Favorites)
In this lab, students accumulate observations of a candle including a look at the combustion reaction's reactants and products.
-
Molecular Motion | High School, Middle School
Simulation: Molecular Motion Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)
In this simulation, students will have the opportunity to explore on the molecular level how particles move in three states of matter. They will compare two different substances.
-
Molecular Motion, Heat | High School, Middle School
Lesson Plan: Modeling the Melting of Ice Mark as Favorite (11 Favorites)
In this lesson, students will create a particulate model of matter that explains energy changes and transfer during a phase change.
-
Density, Molecular Motion | Middle School, High School
Activity: Simulation Activity: Density Simulation Mark as Favorite (4 Favorites)
In this simulation, students will investigate the effect of changing variables on both the volume and the density of a solid, a liquid and a gas sample. Students will analyze the different states of matter at the particle level as well as quantitatively. This lesson accompanies the simulation from the September 2015 issue of Chemistry Solutions.
