The practical work conducted in the Structure of Matter module aims to reinforce students’ understanding of fundamental concepts in atomic and molecular structure through hands-on experimentation and applied scientific methods. In the laboratory, students explore the behavior of matter at microscopic and macroscopic levels by examining atomic models, crystal structures, molecular geometry, and physical properties such as density, conductivity, and phase transitions. Through experimental measurements, data analysis, and interpretation, learners gain insight into how theoretical principles—such as atomic theory, bonding models, intermolecular forces, and quantum behavior—translate into observable phenomena. The practical sessions also develop essential laboratory skills, including safe handling of materials, accurate data collection, analytical reasoning, and scientific reporting. Ultimately, these experiments bridge theory and practice, enabling students to better understand the structure, properties, and transformations of matter while preparing them for advanced study and research in physical sciences.
