[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this online tutorial, students will begin to understand a substance according to its physical properties. Learn to distinguish between extensive and intensive...

Students experiment with liquids; comparing and contrasting, and creating a density tower leading to a beginning understanding of density.

With an overview of the various properties of the states of matter, this 18 page pdf file provides a series of topics related to liquids including special physical properties of liquids, changes of state, and more.

Students learn about solids, liquids, and gases in this interactive slide show. Animated cartoon characters explain concepts having to do with properties of matter. A self-checking quiz follows the lesson.

An activity where students use the characteristics of liquids when they combine with water to tell the differences between them. Activity includes both student and teacher instructions.

This article from the Florida State University provides a basic definition of viscosity and it origin in liquids.

Often we find that different phases of pure substances can exist in equilibrium with one another. Let us consider an important gedankenexperiment (Latin-German for "thought experiment") in which we boil water. Ordinary water boiling is...

Given descriptions, scenarios, or illustrations, students will distinguish between the compressibility, structure, shape, and volume of solids, liquids, and gases.

Students act as chemical engineers and use LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robotics to record temperatures and learn about the three states of matter. Properties of matter can be measured in various ways, including volume, mass, density and...

This video/lesson series explains how the structure and behavior of H2O in liquid form gives water its properties, and make it a chemical essential for life. Also in this collection: a Victorian-era depiction of the water molecule; news...

This site contains an interactive activity in which students can learn about the three states of matter. There is also a factsheet that lists numerous properties of liquids, solids, and gases. The factsheet also uses water as an example...

A demonstration and lab activity where students investigate the characteristics of solids and liquids, and classify materials as one or the other.

The differences between solids, liquids, and gases and the properties of each are presented in this lesson.

In this activity about matter, students investigate the three states of matter by participating in a small group lab. Students will observe, question, and investigate the properties of solids, liquids, and gases.

In this inquiry lab activity, students will attempt to layer 6 different kinds of soda pops in a large test tube using their knowledge of density and other physical properties of liquids.

Given scenarios, descriptions, or illustrations, the student will determine the properties of water that affect chemical and biological systems.

Get the answers to many common questions about liquids. Identify properties and phase transitions of liquid shared in this FAQ.

Students study the physical properties of different fluids and investigate the relationship between the viscosities of liquid and how fast they flow through a confined area. Student groups conduct a brief experiment in which they...

An interactive simulation will heat, cool and compress atoms and molecules. Watch as they change between solid, liquid and gas phases. Recognize that different substances have different properties which will affect the temperatures for...

Light travels as transverse waves and can travel through a vacuum. Sound travels as longitudinal waves and needs to travel through a solid, liquid or gas. Read about the properties of light and of sound, and learn the differences between...

An investigation into what properties liquids have that enable them to sit in separate layers in a container.

In this experiment, students will work in small groups to create two different polymers, similar to Flubber and Silly Putty, using Elmer's glue, liquid laundry starch, and Borax. They will then compare the properties of the two polymers....

Take on this self-guided advanced level e-text, and learn about the chemical and physical structure of liquids and solids.
