Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Energy Transfer in Chemical Reactions. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.

Main Concepts

When energy is absorbed during a chemical reaction, it is stored as chemical energy in the products.

Exothermic reactions release energy into their surroundings, which can cause a temperature increase.

Exothermic and endothermic reactions are used by engineers in designing solutions to problems.

Energy is required to break chemical bonds.

Energy is released when new chemical bonds form.

Endothermic reactions absorb energy from their surroundings, which can cause a temperature drop.

During a chemical reaction, energy is transformed from one form to another.

During a chemical reaction, atoms within a substance can be rearranged.

During a chemical reaction, atomic bonds are broken and/or formed.

During a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed with different physical properties.

Chemical reactions can transform energy within living organisms.

A temperature change in a substance can be evidence of a chemical reaction.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

In a chemical reaction, what are the materials known as that are needed to do the reaction? What do we call the materials that come out of a chemical reaction? Why does your body perspire after a hard workout?

After the Game

In this game, you collected reactants for a chemical reaction. What is the difference between an endothermic and exothermic reaction? What can be observed as a sign of a chemical reaction?
