This program examines the four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma and discusses how water, as well as other materials, can exist in so many different forms.
What takes the shape of the container it is in and changes shape when the container changes? Liquids! A liquid is a state of matter that has some big differences from solids and gases.
An introduction to gases that describes how they are different from liquids and solids, explains how gases are created and change, and discusses the different forms of matter.
Presents the Standard Deviants approach to learning chemistry, providing a step-by-step overview of the topic, with definitions of terms, and discussion of the building blocks of matter, elements, and units of measure.
Presents the Standard Deviants approach to learning chemistry, focusing on gases, with discussion of the ideal gas solution, Dalton's law of partial pressures, intermolecular forces, and how gases condense into liquids.
An introduction to kinetic molecular theory, explaining the relationships between temperature, pressure, volume, and molarity in gases, with hands-on demonstrations, and a visit to the Boyce-Thompson Institute in New York.
