Heating Curve
Wow! This is a nifty presentation for teaching high school chemists about the heating curve. It displays a graph for temperature vs. heat added, then enters the curve itself. The final slide identifies each part of the curve. Notes are...

Activity #15 What Happens To A Liquid As Energy Is Added?
Pupils model the arrangement of particles in a liquid. They use the model, to demonstrate how a gas is formed from a liquid with no increase in temperature as energy is added. Pupils model the arrangement and movement of gas particles.
