Classroom Resources: Energy & Thermodynamics

51 – 54 of 54 Classroom Resources

• 

  Melting Point, Freezing Point, Phase Changes, Molecular Motion, Heat, Temperature, Heating Curve, Graphing | Middle School, High School

  Lesson Plan: Modeling the Melting of Ice

  In this lesson, students will create a particulate model of matter that explains energy changes and transfer during a phase change.

• 

  Specific Heat, Temperature, Heat of Combustion | High School

  Demonstration: Measuring Heat

  In this demonstration students will observe what happens to the temperature of water when different volumes of hot water are added and also when copper, the same temperature as the hot water is added.

• 

  Classification of Reactions, Chemical Change, Temperature, Exothermic & Endothermic, Activation Energy, Energy Diagrams, Bond Energy

  Simulation: Energy Changes in Chemical Reactions

  In the November 2016 simulation, students will evaluate the energy changes in an endothermic and an exothermic chemical reaction. Students will have the opportunity to compare how energy is absorbed and released in each reaction, and will make a connection between the standard energy diagrams associated with each reaction type.

• 

  Melting Point, Freezing Point, Phase Changes, Molecular Motion, Heat, Specific Heat, Temperature, Intermolecular Forces, Heating Curve, Boiling Point, Heat of Vaporization , Heat of Fusion

  Simulation: Heating Curve of Water

  In the May 2015 issue, students explore the heating curve for water from a qualitative and quantitative perspective. Students compare illustrations of each physical state depicted on the curve and calculate the energy required to transition from one state to another.
