Learn about matter, its three states, changes of state, how matter behaves, and physical and chemical changes in matter.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Provides the definitions of physical and chemical changes in matter and gives examples. The law of conservation of mass is also described.

A module that provides the definition of chemical property and examples of the chemical properties of matter using explanations, pictures, and review questions.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In the following online tutorial students identify the chemical properties of a substance and describe chemical changes and differentiate them from physical changes....

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Freshly baked bread and cherry pie are two delicious parts of any meal. What happens to the ingredients that go into the bread and the pie as they are heated in the...

Through an instructional video, games, and activities, students explore three types of change matter makes: physical change, in which only the shape of the matter changes; physical phase change in which matter changes to a different form...

The goal of this activity is to develop and use a model to describe that matter is made of particles on a scale that is too small to be seen. You will be making observations of changes supported by a particle model of matter.

In this instructional activity, students will move and generate choreography to understand different states of matter.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Definition of a change of state and the physical processes that cause it.

Resource provides information about the difference between physical and chemical changes. Includes a definition and examples of each.

Matter changes both physically and chemically on a fairly regular basis. Through these activities students will challenge their understanding of the changes that may take place with different types of matter.

Can you distinguish physical changes from chemical changes? After reading a brief summary of both types of changes, you'll be presented with some examples and asked to identify them.

In this chemistry lab, students will investigate, observe, and describe a variety of chemical and physical changes in matter. They will understand that this is part of everyday life.

Resource provides the ten signs that tell when a chemical change has occured. Each sign has a detailed explanation.

This lesson plan focuses on the difference between physical and chemical changes of matter.

The class will go back over the Power Point presentation on chemical and physical properties. The teacher will then conduct numerous liquid nitrogen demos. This instructional activity is used early in the Chemistry course. The students...

[Free Registration/Login Required] This lesson is the third of three lessons. It covers the physical changes of matter and explains how chemical changes can be detected.

In this activity, students investigate physical and chemical changes in the states of matter for water. They collect data and record their observations.

Can you distinguish physical changes from chemical reactions? You'll be presented with a number of pictures and asked to identify those which are examples of chemical reactions.

Step into Dirtmeister's Science Lab as he explores the challenge question: "How can you force a physical change in matter?" Learn about matter, make your predictions and then do the experiment.

Students will use their prior knowledge about changes of matter to develop a hypothesis to test the physical properties of materials such as plastic (polymers) and how its chemical properties allow it to have unique physical properties.

Explore the differences between chemical and physical changes, including some examples at the atomic level.
