RI-ITEST Activities
This activity introduces the concept of a computer model as well as the typical controls used by models in the Molecular Workbench. It is recommended to do this activity first before all other activities.
The goal of this activity is to explore potential energy and kinetic energy, as well as energy conservation, and to apply what you learn to both our human scale world and the world of atoms and molecules.
What exactly are heat and temperature? In this activity, you will learn about these concepts.
Electrostatics is the study of the interactions among objects that carry charges.
In this activity, you will learn the microscopic pictures for important concepts about electric current.
What is the correct model of an atom? The one you have learned about in the past is commonly not the right one.
Newton's laws tell us how objects move and respond to forces. In this activity, we'll explore Newton's laws at the atomic scale.
Spectroscopy is the science of identifying atoms by the light they emit. Each kind of atom emits light of a particular color.
RI-ITEST Activities
When an atom stores energy it goes into an excited state, and when it releases that energy it goes back into the ground state.
In this activity, you'll explore diffusion, osmosis, and active transport.
This activity will begin your study of how the structure of organic compounds are related to their function.
RI-ITEST Activities
In this activity, you will examine what the primary phases -- the states of matter (gas, liquid and solid) -- look like at the atomic level. Then you'll explore phase change.
The Ideal Gas Law describes the relationship among pressure, temperature, volume and number of gas molecules. In this activity, you will demonstrate the relationships of the variables in the equation.
In this activity you will explore how molecular level attractions are the foundation of these phenomena and many other everyday experiences.
In this activity you will explore the geometry of molecules and learn how it affects their properties and functions.
Solubility
Electrons are key to forming the two broad categories of chemical bonds: covalent and ionic. Atoms, which have a nucleus surrounded by electrons, are represented in several different ways.
This activity will allow you to explore reactions in which chemical bonds are formed and broken.
Chemical Reactions and Energy
RI-ITEST Activities
In this activity, you'll explore diffusion, osmosis, and active transport.
ATP - Biological Energy
In this activity, you'll explore the way proteins fold into complex shapes so they can perform a wide variety of critical tasks in the cell.
Structure and Function of Proteins
This activity will begin your study of the structure of proteins and nucleic acids.
This activity will focus on how information stored in DNA is read by the cell and used to build proteins that the cell needs.
Photobiology
This activity will begin your study of how the structure of organic compounds are related to their function.
