solids

This book describes solids and explains that a brick, a bike, and a desk are solids.

The states of matter (solids, liquids, and gases) are explained and demonstrated. Includes an experiment to try.

Describes the physical properties of solids and explains how matter can change to and from a solid into a liquid or gas.

Contains video clips and animations that demonstrate the science concepts of temperature, solids, and liquids, and how they work in everyday life, including a visit to a metal foundry, and a look at natural and man-made insulation.

Explains the different states of matter and how a substance changes from one to another; and includes experiments and activities.

Introduces the basic forms of matter: solid, liquid and gas and how matter can change from one form to another. The terms melting point, freezing point and boiling point are clearly explained. Includes a hands-on activity that demonstrates how different liquids evaporate at different rates.

An exploration of solids that describes states of matter, how materials conduct electricity and heat, chemical changes, separating mixtures, and solutions, and more. Includes related activities, a glossary, and resources.

Discusses the nature, constitution, properties, and behavior of matter in its various solid, liquid, and gaseous forms. With hands-on activities.

Photographs and simple text describe the physical properties of solids.

Summarizes how water changes from a solid to a liquid and back again, and introduces related facts such as water freezes at thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit and ice floats.
