Activity 1: Question Game. Estimated duration: 13 min

Pure Fun

Mr. Compound will give you a fun lesson about pure substances before you start the game! You will then jump into a game where you will hop from platform to platform to collect coins while you admire the chemical scenery. As you jump, don't fall in the pits! If you fall into one, you'll have to answer a question about pure substances to continue.

Activity 2: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Gases Intro - Intro

Pump gas molecules into a box and see what happens as you change the volume, add or remove heat, and more. Measure the temperature and pressure, and discover how the properties of the gas vary in relation to each other. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 3: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Gases Intro - Laws

Experiment with gas laws by holding one parameter constant, such as volume, temperature, or pressure. Pump gas molecules to a box and explore how the properties of the gas vary in relation to each other. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 4: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Gas Properties - Explore

Discover what happens when a gas is compressed or expanded, and identify when pressure-volume work is done on or by a gas. Experiment with the number of particles, change the volume, add or remove heat, and more. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 5: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

States of Matter: Basics - Phase Changes

Heat, cool, and compress atoms and molecules and watch as they change between solid, liquid and gas phases. Pump more atoms and molecules into the system or change the temperature or volume of a container, and see a pressure-temperature diagram respond in real time. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 6: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 6 min

Pure Substance Lab

In this game, your goal is to determine whether the substances you are presented with are pure or mixtures. In order to do this, you will perform tests to determine the properties of a mystery substance. If the properties match those of a pure substance, you can conclude that your subject substance is pure. Otherwise, you have a mixture.

Activity 7: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

States of Matter: Basics - States

Observe different types of molecules form a solid, liquid, or gas. Heat or cool the system and watch the phase change. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 8: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 12 min

Pure Substances (Mid)

In this game you will review pure substances, chemical changes and properties, and physical changes and properties. Each concept is demonstrated through various lab activities so that you get a chance to see and understand what you are interacting with. After each mini-lab, you will answer a multiple-choice question to check for your understanding. There are fifteen labs for you to complete!

Activity 9: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 5 min

Substance Factory

In this game, you are in a sorting factory. You will have to sort pure substances from mixtures, liquids from solids, and get lab instruments to where they belong. The materials will appear in front of you on a conveyer belt. You'll learn information about what is in front of you to help you make your choice and earn the most points.
