Activity 1: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 8 min

Balancer Machine: Conservation of Atoms and Mass

This game will show you how to determine if a chemical equation is balanced or unbalanced. First the game will help you learn the rules about coefficients and subscripts. You will get plenty of practice and will use math to demonstrate the Law of Conservation of Mass. You'll have fun learning about how important chemical reactions are! Happy balancing!

Activity 2: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 15 min

Chemical Reactions

In this game, you will be introduced to four types of chemical reactions, one at a time. For each type of reaction you need to create, you will be given time on the clock to move the atoms around in the reactants to form the correct products. You will be give information about each product before the level begins. Read carefully so that you can follow the instructions.

Activity 3: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 21 min

Chemical Reaction - Evidence of a Reaction

You are a young scientist with the chance to explore and learn about chemical reactions. You will walk through fifteen different labs to help you understand chemical reactions. You will mix chemicals to see whether a chemical reaction takes place. Afterwards, you will learn about the reactants and products from your chemical reactions. There are fifteen labs for you to complete!

Activity 4: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Balancing Chemical Equations - Introduction

Experiment with chemical reactions, and see how many products you can make with different amounts of reactants. Show or hide the molecules before and after the reaction, and predict the products and leftovers in the reaction. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.
