Matter & Materials

5 interactive Integrated Science simulations on matter & materials.

Integrated Science · Matter & Materials States of matter – particle model on heating and cooling In a solid, particles sit close together and only vibrate; in a liquid they slide past each other; in a gas they move freely. Click Heat... Ages 11–12
Integrated Science · Matter & Materials Preparing solutions – percentage concentration, molar concentration and dilution Weigh a solute (NaCl, CuSO₄, sugar) on an electronic balance, transfer it to a beaker or volumetric flask and add water step by step.... Ages 13–14
Integrated Science · Matter & Materials Thermal expansion of solids – metal rods and a bimetallic strip Three rods of aluminium, copper and steel with the same length are heated equally; a dial gauge at the end of each rod measures the... Ages 13–14
Integrated Science · Matter & Materials Separating mixtures: decanting, filtration, evaporation, separating funnel, distillation Choose a mixture (sand–water, salt–water, cooking oil–water, ethanol–water, or muddy water) and a separation method, watch the process... Ages 11–12
Integrated Science · Matter & Materials Testing material properties and comparing fuels Pick a material (copper, aluminum, steel, plastic, glass, wood, rubber) and run a test: wire it into a circuit to check for electrical... Ages 11–12
