Elements and compounds

We have been learning about elements and compounds. Now I want you to create some molecules.
A molecule is a combination of atoms bonded together. These molecules could be elements or compounds. This is what I want you to do:

1. Take a quiz.
Go to:  http://studyjams.scholastic.com/studyjams/jams/science/matter/elements-and-compounds.htm
Click on TEST YOURSELF
When you are done, call me to record your grade.
2. Create some molecules.
Go to:  http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/build-a-molecule
Click on RUN NOW- then - RUN
Play the game and have fun learning!

Pre AP students, your challenge... click on the second tab and COLLECT MULTIPLE. These have coefficients! A coefficient is a large number in front of the chemical formula, this number indicates the amount of molecules.
