Description:

What happens in a redox reaction? How do materials change when they melt or freeze? Why are chemical reactions so important? This title explores how elements melt, boil, and freeze; how they combine with each other to make new substances; and how chemical reactions take place every day in factories and in your home. You will also find several experiments that can be done at home.

The States of Matter series looks at important topics in chemistry such as solids, liquids and gases, changes of state, the water cycle, and mixing solids, liquids and gases. There are seven informative experiments that can be carried out at home, and useful diagrams, including the periodic table.
