Two thousand years ago, Chinese scientists were looking for a medicine that would make them live forever. Instead, they blew up their lab and discovered gunpowder. Alfred Nobel blew up his laboratory twice before he discovered the formula for dynamite. Learn about the Apollo 13 and Challenger explosions and the strange space explosions caused by top secret Starfish Prime. These stories may sound twisted, but they're all true tales from science! Ages 9-12

Exam Board: AQA Level & Subject: GCSE Combined Science: Trilogy First teaching: September 2016 Next exams: June 2023 This Workbook will support and motivate students to reach their full potential with targeted questions and support. Provides plenty of practice opportunities for short- and long-answer questions on every topic Builds confidence with worked examples demonstrating how to answer different types of questions Further support from hints and tips explaining command words, advising how to approach questions and more The questions begin with confidence-building, lower demand questions and they are ramped throughout each topic. The workbook provides coverage of maths and practical skills as well as offering synoptic questions. The range of questions available encourages students to develop their skills in applying and analysing as well as recall. Frequent support notes provide hints and tips on strategies for decoding questions (for example by identifying key words in the question), key terminology, and how to write explanations and give the right amount of detail.

Ages 8 years & over. This series (a part of the Pegasus Encyclopaedia Library)contains the encyclopaedia based on Discoveries and Inventions, Space, Physics, Chemistry and Experiments. It is especially designed to fulfil the thirst for scientific knowledge in children.

Earth is made up of four basic parts: the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, and the biosphere. The atmosphere is made up of the gases that surround the planet. The hydrosphere consists of the water in the oceans, lakes, rivers, and air. The lithosphere is the rocky surface of Earth both on land and under the oceans. The biosphere encompasses all living things on Earth. The actions and interactions between these components are what make the Earth a constantly changing entity. Weather changes, rain falls, soil washes away, and plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen, all through the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. Clear and concise, ""Earth Chemistry"" explains these chemical or physical changes on Earth, exploring how the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere relate to and interact with one another.

Young people intuitively understand that matter takes different forms - water, for example, can be liquid, solid ice, or gaseous steam. This book will give readers a deeper understanding of the different states of matter. Through colorful photographs and lively discussions of familiar materials, readers will be drawn in to learn about matter's many forms. Topics include - understanding matter, mass, volume, and density - differences between solids, liquids, and gases - how matter passes from one state to another - properties of matter, such as hardness and viscosity. Teacher's guide available.

The field of astrochemistry is constantly changing, and new space probes are sent into the solar system on a regular basis to research astronomical bodies. ""Chemistry of Space"" offers an overview of the latest information about the solar system, the planets, comets and meteors, and other features of our universe.Beginning with an explanation of the origin of the universe, otherwise known as the Big Bang theory, this new book discusses recent developments in our understanding of the chemical composition and chemical changes within new stars, comets and meteors, interstellar space, the planets, and the moon. Biographical sketches of important researchers in this field complete this enlightening volume, giving students a broader perspective of chemistry's role in space exploration.
