States of Matter

How many phases of matter can be identified? Can they be found on Earth? How much observable matter in the universe is composed of plasma?

Iinteractively walks participants through the four states of matter.  Students learn to distinguish the physical properties of solids, liquids, gases, and plasma. They learn about atoms, the smallest particle an element can be broken into. Through special funding, we can bring to your classroom a custom designed device that produces plasma and demonstrates the physical properties of this fourth state of matter.

This program supports Colorado Model Content Standards for Science 2, 5.
