Why solids, liquids, and gases behave differently
Connect particle motion and spacing with shape, volume, and compressibility.
Pairs with The Matter MissionThe animation library
Watch the idea
come together.
Short visual examples are on the way. They’ll connect what you see in the book with the changes, motion, and patterns behind the science.
Animations are coming. These examples are planned and aren’t ready to play yet. You can explore the illustrated chapter samples while we build them.
First on the list.
Eight examples where seeing the process can help the explanation make sense.
Why the pulls cancel in CO2 but not water
Distinguish polar bonds from a polar molecule by adding bond-dipole vectors.
Pairs with The Bonding BlueprintSee a precipitate form and find the spectators
Connect ions in solution with complete and net ionic equations.
Pairs with The Reaction WorkshopWhich reactant runs out first?
Use the balanced reaction ratio to identify the limiting supply and leftover amount.
Pairs with The Stoichiometry ChallengeExplore gas pressure, volume, and temperature
See each gas-law relationship while its required variables remain fixed.
Pairs with The Gas ExpeditionWhere the energy goes during heating
Connect added heat, temperature, and phase changes on a heating curve.
Pairs with Between the MoleculesThe mixture is steady, but the reactions continue
Distinguish equal reaction rates from equal concentrations.
Pairs with The Equilibrium BalanceComplete the zinc-copper circuit
Connect electrode reactions with electron flow and salt-bridge ion movement.
Pairs with The Electron Exchange
