States of Matter

Demonstrate the particle theory of matter to high school scientists with an engaging experiment that allows them to visually see the results as substances change from one state to another. The class concludes with a discussion about how...

In this chemistry learning exercise, learners answer 73 fill in the blanks and multiple choice questions on the structure of matter and properties of elements in the periodic table.

Building off young chemists' knowledge of the states of matter, kinetic molecular theory is the focus of the unit. Eight days of lessons including multiple demonstrations, one lab experiment, directed instruction, and worksheets,...

This is a great worksheet with an infographic to assist your students in categorizing matter into mixtures and non-mixtures. Information is given about the metric system of measurement. Your young students match 13 terms with their...

A somewhat strangely formatted slide show that contains multiple examples of matter types. The classification and state explanations given would be useful as practice of substance identification and the heating curve may prove to be...

The three states of matter are the focus of this chemistry video. Sal uses the example of a water molecule, and explains in great detail what forces are present to make that molecule change back and forth between a liquid, a solid, and a...

Many scholars know weight is actually a measure of gravity, so what is temperature? The video explains that temperature is a measure of kinetic energy. It connects the concept of how water evaporates when heated with how water evaporates...

Get them thinking big about chemistry! Young chemists learn about the large and elaborate structures created through covalent bonding in the fourth of a six-part video series regarding elements, mixtures, and compounds. The video covers...

[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...

Water is the only molecule on Earth that can naturally exist in all three states of matter. The interactive simulation shows different molecules changing states of matter with the addition or removal of heat. Learners then see how...
