Physical Science Experiments

Physical Science Experiments covers the two main areas of physical science: chemistry and physics. Physics is the study of the universe's foundational elements. Chemistry studies the properties of matter and how those foundational elements interact with one another. In this new volume, 20 hands-on activities promote interest in science and technology. The easy-to-replicate experiments include lessons about energy, heat, geodes, steam power, and infrared light.

Experiments include:

• Testing Items with a Black Light
• Detecting Infrared Light
• Determining What Color of Light Shines Brightest Through Fog
• Creating a Hologram
• Making Bath Fizzers
• Testing Liquids for Use in Plaster
• Creating a Geode
• Using Chemicals to Make Soap
• Testing the Dissolution Rate of Lactase
• Using Kitchen Chemistry to Make Glue
• Examining the Energy in a Peanut
• Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions
• Testing the Effect of Heat on Egg Coagulation
• Using Steam to Power a Boat
• Creating a Magnetic Linear Accelerator
• Throwing a Curve Ball
• And more.
