  Conservation of Mass | High School

  Lab: Mass & Change Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will use unified particle pictures of solid, liquid, and gas to explain the law of conservation of mass after carrying out various experiments.

• 

  Conservation of Mass | High School

  Lab: Conservation of Mass Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  Download this lab in which students perform three simple experiments, recording the mass of a substance before and after a reaction. They then explain how the law of conservation of mass was not violated, even if the mass changed.

• 

  Density | High School

  Lab: Graphing Density Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will collect data and then use graphing to determine the density values of unknown metal samples.

• 

  Density | High School

  Lab: Colors of the Rainbow Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will practice density calculations and put their calculations to test by creating their own density column.

• 

  Density | High School

  Lab: Bowling Ball—Will it Sink or Float in Water? Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  In this lab students will learn the difference between strong, weak, and concentrated acids by carrying out various titrations.

• 

  Density | High School

  Demonstration: Fish Tank Carbon Dioxide Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  In this demonstration, students watch as a reaction between baking soda and vinegar produces carbon dioxide, which then causes lit candles to extinguish.

• 

  Density | High School

  Lab: Density Simulation Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  In this simulation from Vol. 2, Issue 1 of Chemistry Solutions, students will investigate the effect of changing variables on both the volume and the density of a solid, a liquid, and a gas sample.
