• 

  Molecular Formula, Atomic Mass, Molar Mass | High School

  Activity: Molecule Building Tournament Mark as Favorite (13 Favorites)

  In this activity, students determine molecular formulas given formula masses and a limited number of atoms.

• 

  Molecular Formula, History, Covalent Bonding, Molecular Structure, Physical Properties, Chemical Properties | High School

  Activity: Molecule of the Week Mark as Favorite (41 Favorites)

  In this activity, students research and present a molecule they find relevant to real life, either in the past or present. They must submit notes to the teacher the day before they present their findings in five to 10 minutes to their chemistry class.

• 

  Ionic Bonding, Naming Compounds, Molecular Formula, Ions, Ionic Radius, Solubility, Melting Point, Physical Properties | High School

  Activity: My Name is Bond, Ionic Bond Mark as Favorite (74 Favorites)

  In this lesson, students will demonstrate their knowledge of ionic bond strength using a “brackets” activity. Pairs of students start the activity playing a game of “Ionic Compound War” to build eight compounds. Then then transfer the compounds to a “bracket” and use their knowledge of ionic bonding, along with a solubility chart, to predict the strongest and weakest bond between four pairs of ionic substances.

• 

  Molecular Formula, History, Functional Groups, Covalent Bonding, Molecular Structure | High School

  Activity: Napoleon's Buttons Writing Assignment Mark as Favorite (26 Favorites)

  In this activity, students read Penny Le Couteur and Jay Burreson’s book Napoleon’s Buttons: How 17 Molecules Changed History. They discuss the book in class and complete a written assignment based on the chemistry and history highlighted in the book.

• 

  Periodic Table, Atomic Radius, Ionization Energy, Electronegativity | High School

  Activity: Periodic War Mark as Favorite (118 Favorites)

  In this activity, students play a card game to apply their knowledge of the periodic trends of the main group elements.

• 

  Molecular Formula, Periodic Table, Ionic Bonding, Covalent Bonding | High School

  Activity: Bondy (Rummy) Mark as Favorite (35 Favorites)

  In this activity, students play a game in which they use element cards to form compounds.

• 

  Molecular Motion, Molecular Motion | High School

  Activity: The Molecule Dance Mark as Favorite (14 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will explain bond and molecular movements by mimicking molecular motion with their own movements.
