In a neat and straightforward manner, this PowerPoint delivers basic introductory information on the properties of matter, physical and chemical changes, and pure substances vs. mixtures. It also defines the states of matter. For some...

A total of five experiments lead chemistry pros to understand the difference between physical and chemical change. They also experiment with exothermic reaction factors that affect rate of reaction. The procedures are not written in the...

High schoolers explore physical and chemical changes. In this chemistry lesson plan, students will go outside to observe changes seen in nature. High schoolers will then work in the lab to identify changes at different stations prior to...

Students distinguish between physical changes and chemical changes. They comprehend that chemical reactions produce new substances with compositions and properites which are different than those of the starting materials. Pupils also...

Students measure the heat of physical and chemical changes in reactions.  In this chemistry instructional activity students determine at what extent changes emit or absorb heat. 

In this chemical reactions worksheet, students answer follow up questions to a lab where they were observing chemical changes in reactions after mixing products such as hydrochloric acid and sodium bicarbonate. They answer six questions...

In this classification of changes instructional activity, students identify each example as either chemical or physical changes. Students also classify other examples as either element, compound, solution, colloid, or suspensions. In the...

Young scholars apply their comprehension of colligative properties to real-world situations. They review the concepts of physical and chemical changes. Students are reminded that science is used extensively in food-production. They...

Students observe what happens when sugar is dissolved in water and when it is heated. They weigh the products after each of the two experiments on a balance scale. Pupils distinguish between physical and chemical changes. Students are...

Third graders explore forms of matter through reading, hands-on science activities, and research using the Internet. Students create a booklet, directions given, that they title and decorate, to later serve as a review visualization...

In this classroom lab, students will investigate the characteristics of a chemical change. Students will also provide a definition of what constitutes a physical change through observation of several examples. Students will use/create...

Provides fun ideas for exploring how to transform ice using shapes, light, and color.
