Course Name: Modified Physical Science 

Monday


Standard(s):SPS2. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to explain how atoms bond to form stable compounds. 

a. Analyze and interpret data to predict properties of ionic and covalent compounds. 

  (Clarification statement: Properties are limited to types of bonds formed, elemental composition, melting point, boiling point, and conductivity.)  

LT: We are learning to predict types of chemical bonds formed based on their element composition. (Ionic versus Covalent)

We are learning to predict the relative melting and boiling points for ionic and covalent compounds.

SC:

  • unchecked

    Identify metals, nonmetals and metalloids on the Periodic Table

  • unchecked

    Describe ionic bonds as those between metals and nonmetals, and covalent bonds as those between two nonmetals.

  • unchecked

    Predict the type of chemical bonds formed for a compound

  • unchecked

    Relate bond type to melting point 

  • unchecked

    Relate bond type to boiling point. (example: ionic substances have higher melting and boiling points because of higher electromagnetic forces, and covalent bonds have lower melting points because of weaker EMF.)

  • unchecked

    Relate bond type to conductivity.(Example: ionic substances have high conductivity in aqueous solutions while covalent substances have poorer conductivity in aqueous solutions.) 

  • unchecked

    Predict relative melting and boiling points for an unknown compound

Lesson/Activity:

-Daily 10 Questions 

-Ionic vs. Covalent Substance Lab  

- Chemical Bonds Color by Number 

-Ionic vs. Covalent Bonds Review (Matching Game)

SPS2c: I can use IUPAC nomenclature for translating between chemical names and chemical formulas.

Success criteria:  I will know I am successful when I can . . . 

  • unchecked

    Discriminate between ionic and covalent compounds.

  • unchecked

    Name binary ionic compounds based on the metal and nonmetal, using the suffix “-ide” for the nonmetal.

  • unchecked

    Name binary covalent compounds using the appropriate prefix (1-9) based on IUPAC nomenclature, and the suffix “ide” for the second element.  

  • unchecked

    Generate the formula for binary ionic and covalent compounds based on their names. 

Lesson/Activity:

-Daily 10 Questions

-Ionic vs. Covalent Bonds Matching 

-Notes - Naming Compounds

Wednesday


SPS3. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to support the Law of Conservation of Matter. 

a. Plan and carry out investigations to generate evidence supporting the claim that mass is conserved during a chemical reaction.  (Clarification statement: Limited to synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, and double replacement reactions.) 

b. Develop and use a model of a chemical equation to illustrate how the total number of atoms is conserved during a chemical reaction. (Clarification statement: Limited to chemical equations that include binary ionic and covalent compounds and will not include equations containing polyatomic ions.)

SPS3b: We are learning how the total number of atoms is conserved during a chemical reaction

Success Criteria: I will know I am successful when I can . . .

  • unchecked

    Calculate the number of atoms in a compound’s formula 

  • unchecked

    Compare the number of atoms for an element on the reactant and product side

  • unchecked

    Identify a coefficient to describe the number of atoms in a product/reactant to balance the equation

  • unchecked

    Develop a model of a chemical equation to support the Law of Conservation of Matter 

Lesson/Activity:
