ScienceWiz(R) Chemistry: Solids, Liquids and Gases: Those candle-making, water-squirting, freezing-thawing, glop and mud pie experiments every child should do to explore the matter of matter. This is kitchen chemistry at its best!

There are 29 all-time favorite projects in this highly visual, step by step Chemistry book, including:
  • Capturing a CO2 explosion
  • Squeezing an egg into a bottle
  • Growing giant crystals
  • Making candles
  • Freezing liquids into solids
  • Dying a flower from the inside out using capillary action
  • Sinking and floating by adding salt or changing shape
  • Dissolving solids into liquids, filtering and separating

The particular projects chosen prepare children to excel in science. They are primed to explore and later answer such question as: why do oil and water not mix; why does sugar dissolve in water; how does water travel upward into the leaves of plants; and why does ice float in water? The list is long.

This books is a classic illustration of how child's play can be structured to lead to scientific understanding. (Visit the ScienceWiz(R) Hybrid-learning on Charge, ( https: //sciencewiz.com/distance-learning/charge/ ) to understand how the specific projects in this chemistry book can lead to a deeper how-it-works understanding of the physical world around us. You can do most of the Charge projects with just a few balloons and everyday items.)
