Three States of Matter
Students explore the three states of matter. In this matter lesson, students are shown a variety of examples and decide whether it is a liquid, solid or gas. Students brainstorm what characteristics the objects in each group share.
Curated OER
Solids, Liquids, and Gases
Students explore solids, liquids, and gasses and categorize and describe the three states of matter. In this chemistry lesson, students categorize items as solid, liquid, or gas based on the definitions given by the teacher. Students...
Curated OER
The Three States of Matter
Third graders identify properties of solids, liquids, and gasses. In this states of matter lesson, the teacher demonstrates the properties of each state of matter, then students go on a scavenger hunt for items to represent each state...
Curated OER
Heat 1
In this heat worksheet, students determine the heat gained or lost when matter changes phases. Students review the energy flow through ecosystems by comparing trophic levels and food webs. This worksheet has 10 fill in the blank, 5 short...
Curated OER
Plasma
In this matter worksheet, students review the states of matter, including plasma. Students read about where plasma is found and then complete 3 short answer questions.

Chapter 16 Review- General Science
For this review of general science worksheet, students classify examples of matter as mixtures or substances, homogeneous or heterogeneous mixtures, or elements or compounds. Students also convert several examples using the standard...
Curated OER
Molecules in Motion
In this molecules worksheet, students review how temperature and pressure affects molecule density. Students compare the volume of a balloon as temperature changes. This worksheet has 9 fill in the blank, 8 true or false, 1 short answer,...

How Does Matter Change State?
In this states of matter worksheet, students will write 2 things that cause matter to change state. Then, students will write in the effect that cause has on the state of matter.
Curated OER
Combined Gas Law
In this combined Gas Law instructional activity, 7th graders determine the volume of the gas at a specific temperature and pressure amount. Then they explain what happens when the tank cools and the pressure of the gas increases....
Curated OER
Gay-Lussac's Law
In this Gay-Lussac's Law worksheet, students determine the pressure change when a constant volume of gas is heated. Then they identify what the pressure is at standard temperature. Students also determine and calculate the final pressure...
Curated OER
Boyle's Law
In this chemistry worksheet, students identify and explain what Boyle's Law is and what it changes. Then they describe Charles' Law and how the temperature of gas changes so does the volume.
Curated OER
Driving Puzzle
In this driving word search puzzle, students identify terms related to driving. Examples include drive, gas, and car. A list of 45 words is provided to assist students in their search.
Curated OER
Molar Mass
Students apply the ideal gas law and Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure to develop an experiment which determine the molar mass of butane from disposable lighters. In small groups, they develop a procedure and have it approved before...
Curated OER
Oil and Gas As A Source of Energy
Students discuss the reasons why oil and gas are the United States' main source of energy. In groups, they use the internet to research how the resources are formed and the amount of consumption by the United States. They choose books...
Curated OER
Pumped Up Gas Prices
Students investigate the concepts of differing gas prices and how they are set in different geographical areas. They conduct research about the economic concepts of supply and demand and predict the outcomes upon the prices of gasoline.
Curated OER
Science: Identifying Properties of Matter
Students observe a demonstration of the the three forms of matter - air, water, and solids - in plastic bags. After discussing the properties, they transfer them to a Venn diagram. Finally, students identify five items in the classroom...
Curated OER
Solids, Liquids, and Gases
Students explore the three main forms of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. They examine concrete examples of each, using their five senses and "experimenting" to find differences in them. They find pictures of each, cut them out and past...
Curated OER
A Matter of Fact
Third graders define matter as anything that takes up space and has mass, recognize, through experimentation and observation, that matter exists in three forms, including solid, liquid, and gas, and discuss characteristics of each form...
Curated OER
Properties of Matter
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...
Curated OER
Phases of Matter
Eighth graders practice using correct vocabulary and apply content knowledge related to phases of matter when answering questions about situations or observations from everyday life.
Curated OER
Defining Density as a Relationship
Students investigate density and its relationship to air and gas. Students perform experiments to determine if gases have mass. They explore possible ways to figure out the density of gases.
