Date of Teaching
 I. Objectives:
At the end of a 60-minutes lesson, the students should be able to:
a. Identify the different types of intermolecular forces;
b. recognize how intermolecular forces influence various properties of
liquids; and
c. implement precise procedures to manipulate the properties of liquids.

"Water's unique density and thermal properties influence climate

patterns and support diverse ecosystems."

K to 12 Standards Addressed:

A. Content Standard
The learners demonstrate an understanding of:
1. The properties of liquids to the nature of forces between particles.
2. Phase changes in terms of the accompanying changes in energy and
forces between particles.

B. Learning Competency
1. Describe and differentiate the types of intermolecular forces.
2. Predict the intermolecular forces possible for a molecule.
3. Describe the following properties of liquids, and explain the effect of
intermolecular forces on these properties: surface tension, viscosity,
vapor pressure, boiling point and capillary action.

Blackboard, Chalk.

D. Science Processes Involved: Observing, experimenting,

communicating, describing, predicting, analyzing and explaining.
 E. Science Concepts:
1. Intermolecular Forces – are the attractive and repulsive forces
that arise between the molecules of a substance.
2. Surface Tension – is the property of a liquid to resist an external
force and thus assume a lesser surface area.
3. Viscosity – is the resistance of a liquid flow.
4. Vapor Pressure – the pressure exhibited by vapor present above
a liquid surface.
5. Boiling Point – the temperature at which boiling occurs for a
specific liquid.
6. Capillary Action - the ascension of liquids through slim tube,
cylinder or permeable substance due to adhesive and cohesive forces
interacting between the liquid and the surface.

III. Procedure

A. Daily Routine
1. Greetings
2. Prayer
3. Checking of Attendance
4. Classroom Rules
5. Review of Previous Lesson (Elicit)

B. Motivation (Engage)
The teacher will present an image of water in a glass.

Questions to the students:

What phase of matter does the image represent?
Why are the particles of the substance are far from each other?

C. Presentation of the Lesson (Explore)

Activity 1: Let’s Compare!

Instruction: Divide the class into three groups. Each group will have
three different liquids ( water, ethyl alcohol and oil) in separate
containers. Each group will use plastic droppers to place drops of each
liquid onto small pieces of paper. The groups will have a presenter to
discuss or share their observations.

Question to the students: Given the previous activity, what could you
expect about our topic for this afternoon?
D. Development of the Lesson (Explain)
a. Intermolecular Forces
The discussion will start with comparing bond and intermolecular before
explaining intermolecular forces and its types.

b. General Properties of Liquids

Activity 2: Liquid Match!

Instructions: The class will be divided into 2 groups. The first

player/team flips over two cards, revealing a property of liquid and its
description. If the description matches the property, the player/team
earns a point and gets to keep the matched pair of cards. If the
description does not match the property, the cards are flipped back over,
and it's the next player/team's turn. Play continues until all the cards
have been matched.

The teacher will discuss the following properties of liquids:

1. Surface Tension
2. Viscosity
3. Vapor Pressure
4. Boiling Point
5. Capillary Action

c. Structure and Properties of Water

Activity 3: What Structure am I?
Instructions: Divide the class into two groups. Each group will have three
cards that contains picture of the structures of water and paste it to the
corresponding phase of water base on the given description.

E. Fixing Skills (Elaborate)

The teacher will explain the reason and concept about why water is
unique and the properties of liquids.

F. Generalization
1. What are the types of intermolecular forces?
2. What are the properties of liquids.
3. Can you give scenarios that the different properties of liquids are
evident?
