Trendy 3-D special effects on movie screens grab and keep your students' attention. Now use their fascination with mutli-dimensions to discuss visual perception, optics, and colors while studying the solar system. This demonstration is dedicated to raising your students' awareness of the air pollution created by their everyday activities.
Teach a class like forensic science where you have to apply physics, chemistry, and biology content? We have interdisciplinary activities and tips to help. This brief guide will provide you with the information you need to make a number of solutions commonly used in educational laboratories. In this activity, students engage in a game of beanbag toss—but instead of merely keeping score, they explore statistical concepts such as mean, median, mode, and range.
This author provides an excellent student lab-report format, explains how it adapts to different science disciplines, and suggests simple labs to familiarize students with it.
Keep your classroom or lab safe throughout the schoolyear with lots of helpful tips, hints, and safety techniques. You have questions-we have answers. Get general information, care guides, and product information here.

One of the most popular teacher demos to illustrate the power of atmospheric pressure is to heat to a boil a small amount of water in an aluminum beverage can, then quickly submerge its mouth in an ice water bath. Students can do this activity as a quantitative guided-inquiry exercise to show the relationship between temperature, pressure, and volume of gases. Atmospheric pressure at sea level is This would be the amount of pressure exerted on the outside of any empty beverage can.
Since the can is open, the air pressure on the inside of this can is the same as the outside pressure. Therefore, the equilibrium of pressures enables the can to maintain its shape. When a small amount of water 20 mL is added to the can and brought to a boil with a hot plate or Bunsen burner, the water changes into water vapor, driving out all of the air in the can and occupying all of the inside volume.
When the can is quickly inverted and placed mouth down in an ice water bath, the water vapor molecules slow down and condense back into liquid water. As a result, the gas volume and pressure inside drops suddenly, creating a partial vacuum.
With the drop in pressure inside the can and the atmospheric pressure remaining constant outside it, the imbalance of pressures causes the walls of the can to dramatically collapse.

This demonstrates phase change and the effect of unbalanced pressure. When the water in the can is heated, it changes to steam. This steam fills the can, replacing most of the air that was inside of it. When the inverted can is placed in cold water, the steam condenses, leaving the can mostly empty, and thus with a very low pressure inside of it.
The difference between the low pressure inside and the atmospheric pressure outside exerts an inward force on the walls of the can, causing it to implode.
Since there is a loud sound, this may not be ideal for groups of children that are younger than kindergarten-aged. The can may be hard for an auditorium full of people to see without aide, but they will all hear it. After waiting for the water to steam, be sure that the audience is watching closely so as not to miss the rapid implosion.
