Chemistry - update

We have started a new unit of study in Chemisty- the study of matter and changes in matter.

So far we have covered the difference between elements and compounds and how to read the element boxes on the periodic table. 

 

We are beginning the study of the physical properties of matter, including mass, volume and density as our main focus. We will need to calculate density using tools and the formula d = m / v, so please work with your student to become proficient in this calculation.
