Week Five: 2/4– 2/8 Lesson Plans


Week Five:  2/4– 2/8 Lesson Plans

Chemistry I - This week will focus on using notations to predict the reactivity and properties of an element based on the atom's electron configuration.  We will use quantum number theory to assign a position to the last electron in a particular element's orbit.  Students will analyze and apply a prison building as a model for the atomic quantum number theory instead of the hotel analogy used in the beginning of the unit.  We will also look back at our atomic diagrams that students did before the unit to see how much we have learned over the past three units.

Adv. Chemistry - Continuing our journey into acids and bases, we will review naming rules and introduce the concept of titration to find out how strong and concentrated an unknown acid or base may be using experimental data.  This will be done first using a virtual lab program on the computer, then we will try it in the wet lab.  The virtual experience limits chemical waste and mistakes during the wet lab, showing students what to expect and introducing them to the equipment.  Weekly ion quizzes will start to prepare students for naming acids and bases as well as learning the upcoming solubility unit rules.
