A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

States of Matter explained in terms of particles; physical and chemical changes; separation;

This topic examines matter as made of tiny particles and uses that idea to explain the three common states of matter, changes of state, physical and chemical changes, and methods of separation. For the exam, you must be able to connect particle arrangement and motion with observable properties, distinguish physical from chemical change, and choose a suitable separation method for a mixture.
