In this activity, students are introduced to different intermolecular forces and their role in phase changes. They investigate phase changes by examining molecular geometry, polarity and charge distribution in molecules. This resources uses several PhET simulations, which can be found: https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/molecule-polarity https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/molecule-shapes https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/states-of-matter https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/states-of-matter-basics https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/sugar-and-salt-solutions
