In this easy chemistry activity, learners submerge pennies in different liquids (water, lemon juice, vinegar, liquid hand soap, salt water, and baking soda mixed with water) to observe which best clea

In this activity, learners recrystallize substances from solutions and make observations about the resulting crystals. This test can help further identify the unknown.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), the learner places a golf ball between salt water and colored fresh water. The golf ball is not as dense as the saltwater.

In this activity, learners discover the primary physical properties used to separate pure substances from mixtures.

Learners create hard water by mixing Epsom salt and water. Then they compare what happens when soap solution is mixed with hard water and regular water.

Learners apply their knowledge from a previous study to identify different liquids--water, corn syrup, and vegetable oil.

In this activity, learners measure the amount of carbon dioxide in a carbonated drink.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to investigate heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures and solutions, identify the differences, and explore the conce

This is an activity (located on page 4 of the PDF under What's Nano? Activity) about size and scale.

This is a chemistry lab activity about solutions (page 7 of the PDF). Learners see firsthand how chemicals in a solution can combine to form an entirely different substance.

Learners mix a solution of luminol with hydrogen peroxide to produce a reaction that gives off blue light.

In this chemistry activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will learn about crystals by growing their very own.

Learners test solutions of water, sugar, salt, and hydrochloric acid for electrical conductivity. They immerse leads from a lighting device (a battery pack connected to an LED) into each solution.

In this activity, learners will "paint" their own crystal artwork by creating a picture with a super saturated salt solution.

In this activity, learners use open inquiry to learn about the process of science as well as gain experience regarding the Law of Conservation of Mass, dissolution, and density.

Learners grow sugar crystals (rock candy). They make a hot solution that has an excess of sugar dissolved in it, then as the solution cools, they see sugar crystals form.

In this chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make a layered drink with liquids of different densities.

In this activity, learners perform a simulated blood test procedure.

In this sensory activity, young learners explore chemical reactions by making their own play dough from home.

In this activity, learners sublimate dry ice and then taste the carbon dioxide gas.
