Density and Mass
Learners experiment to find which liquids are more dense. In this density and mass activity, students predict and then test objects to observe and measure their density. learners observe which items sink and float. Students complete...
Curated OER
Water Into Gas
Learners investigate how temperature and pressure cause a material to change phase. They heat water to reclaim a gas. They demonstrate that different liquids evaporate at different temperatures.
