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 LightDetecting Infrared LightDetermining What Color of Light Shines Brightest Through FogCreating a HologramMaking Bath FizzersTesting Liquids for Use in PlasterCreating a GeodeUsing Chemicals to Make SoapTesting the Dissolution Rate of LactaseUsing Kitchen Chemistry to Make GlueExamining the Energy in a PeanutExothermic and Endothermic ReactionsTesting the Effect of Heat on Egg CoagulationUsing Steam to Power a BoatCreating a Magnetic Linear AcceleratorThrowing a Curve BallAnd more.
