Virtual Lab: Camping Problem III
So, you've headed out into the wilderness and forgotten your camp stove? What's a chemist to do? Solutions may be the solution! Scholars use a virtual lab workbench to create solutions that would be capable of heating food, courtesy of a...
Concord Consortium
Hydrogen Bonds: A Special Type of Attraction
How does hydrogen bonding explain ice crystals? An engaging interactive answers just that. Scholars explore how polar molecules interact and observe the changes as temperature fluctuates as well as the hydrogen bond attraction.
Curated OER
Where Does Heat Come From?
In this heat worksheet, students will brainstorm objects that give off heat. Then students will complete the statement "Heat can make things __________."
Curated OER
Heat Transfer Problems
In this heat transfer worksheet, students calculate the final temperature of specific reactions. This worksheet has 6 problems to solve.
Curated OER
What happens When Air is Heated or Cooled?
In this pressure worksheet, students write down their observations of a can placed into hot water. They explain what happens to the air molecules and the pressure inside the bottle which causes it to collapse.
Curated OER
Thermal Energy
Explore thermal energy with your class with this introductory presentation. While there is information about heat, conduction, temperature and other topics, further information could be added to make it a richer experience.
Curated OER
Light Can Heat Too!
Third graders explore absorption and reflection of light energy. In this solar energy lesson plan, 3rd graders explore how light energy transfers to heat energy through the construction of a solar water heater. Students will discuss and...

Boiling Point
Is it getting hot in here? Observe boiling from inside a beaker in an engaging interactive. Chemistry scholars heat and cool polar and non-polar solids and observe how molecules react to temperature changes. Your class' misconceptions...
Curated OER
Energy and Control
Seventh graders construct a lunch box that maintains functional temperature zones and does not allow heat transfer between the zones. They examine the transfer of heat, the capacity of certain materials to hold heat, and how the...
National Wildlife Federation
Get Your Techno On
Desert regions are hotter for multiple reasons; the lack of vegetation causes the sun's heat to go straight into the surface and the lack of moisture means none of the heat is being transferred into evaporation. This concept, and other...
