Unit Abstract

Wayne RESA MSS/NGSS aligned high school Chemistry Curriculum 2017; including 8 Units to be taught in a year long chemistry course.

 

This unit brings together the topics of electron structure, organization of the Periodic Table, and bonding. Unit 7 begins with investigations in how and why the physical and chemical properties of compounds vary. As students dig deeper into the trends of the periodic table, they begin to develop an enduring understanding of how and why bonding occurs and how forces, such Coulomb's and intermolecular, effect the physical and chemical properties of matter.

Each atom has a charged substructure consisting of a nucleus, which is made of protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons. (HS-PS1-1)
The periodic table orders elements horizontally by the number of protons in the atom’s nucleus and places those with similar chemical properties in columns. The repeating patterns of this table reflect patterns of outer electron states. (HS-PS1-1),(HSPS1-2)
The structure and interactions of matter at the bulk scale are determined by electrical forces within and between atoms. (HSPS1-3),(secondary to HS-PS2-6)
PS2: Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions
PS2.B: Types of Interactions
Newton’s law of universal gravitation and Coulomb’s law provide the mathematical models to describe and predict the effects of gravitational and electrostatic forces between distant objects.(HS-PS2-4)
Forces at a distance are explained by fields (gravitational,electric, and magnetic) permeating space that can transfer energy through space. Magnets or electric currents cause magnetic fields; electric charges or changing magnetic fields cause electric fields. (HS-PS2-4),(HS-PS2-5)
Attraction and repulsion between electric charges at the atomicscale explain the structure, properties, and transformations of matter, as well as the contact forces between material objects.(HS-PS2-6),(secondary to HS-PS1-1),(secondary to HS-PS1-3)

Grade Band Endpoints

By the end of grade 12 students should know…

 

PS1.A Structure and Properties of Matter

 

  • Each atom has a charged substructure consisting of a nucleus, which is made of protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons.

 

  • The periodic table orders elements horizontally by the number of protons in the atom's nucleus and places those with similar chemical properties in columns.

 

  • The repeating patterns of this table reflect patters of outer electron states.

 

PS2.B Types of Interactions

 

  • Such forces can be attractive or repulsive, depending on the relative sign of the electric charges involved.

 

  • Attraction and repulsion of electric charges at the atomic scale explain the structure, properties, and transformations of matter and the constant forces between material objects.
Essential Questions

Each lesson in a unit begins with a driving question. These questions could be posted on a driving question board or on a summary chart. The teacher should keep in mind that essential questions in a lesson should include student generated questions about the phenomenon.

Content (Key Concepts)

Disciplinary Core Ideas

Pieces of the DCI taken from the FRAMEWORK. The entire DCI is not unpacked, just those pieces related to this unit.

PS1.A: Structure and Properties of Matter

"Each atom has a charged substructure consisting of a nucleus, which is made of protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons"

  • Atoms are made up of a small region called a nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons

    • The nucleus is very small and dense. It contains most of the atom’s mass.

    • Isotopes of an element vary in the number of neutrons in the nucleus.

    • The number of protons is represented by the atomic number and is used to identify each element.

"The repeating patterns of this table reflect patters of outer electron states."

  • Electron clouds surround the nucleus and comprise the majority of the volume of the atom.

    • Electrons are arranged in a predictable pattern, electron configurations.

    • Electron configurations help explain the reactivity and bond formation of an element.

    • Valence electrons are related to an element's position on the periodic table.

"The periodic table orders elements horizontally by the number of protons in the atom's nucleus and places those with similar chemical properties in columns."

  • The periodic table depicts an arrangement of elements based upon atomic number.

    • The periodic table arranges elements with common chemical properties into vertical columns called groups.

    • The elements are arranged horizontally by atomic number.

    • An element’s position on the periodic table is related to its chemical properties, number of valence electrons, bond type, atomic radius, ionization energy, and electronegativity.

"Such forces can be attractive or repulsive, depending on the relative sign of the electric charges involved..."

  • The charged particles of an atom cause electrostatic attractions and repulsions.

    • Attractions between positively-charged protons and negatively-charged electrons within an atom hold the atom together.

    • Electrons transferred from one atom/object to another causes a net charge and the potential for electrostatic attractions/repulsions.

"Attraction and repulsion of electric charges at the atomic scale explain the structure, properties, and transformations of matter and the constant forces between material objects."

  • Forces between atoms form the bonds of molecules.
  • Forces between molecules give rise to physical properties of substances.
  • Binding energy is the minimum amount of energy needed in order to take apart a molecule.
Skills (Intellectual Processes)

Targeted Scientific Practices

Developing and Using Models

Modeling in 9–12 builds on K–8 and progresses to using, synthesizing, and developing models to predict and show relationships among variables between systems and their components in the natural and designed worlds.

  • Develop a model based on evidence to illustrate the relationships between systems or between components of a system. (HS-PS1-8)

  • Use a model to predict the relationships between systems or between components of a system. (HS-PS1-1)

Planning and Carrying Out Investigations

Planning and carrying out investigations in 9-12 builds on K-8 experiences and progresses to include investigations that provide evidence for and test conceptual, mathematical, physical, and empirical models.

  • Plan and conduct an investigation individually and collaboratively to produce data to serve as the basis for evidence, and in the design: decide on types, how much, and accuracy of data needed to produce reliable measurements and consider limitations on the precision of the data (e.g., number of trials, cost, risk, time), and refine the design accordingly. (HS-PS1-3)

Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information

Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information in 9–12 builds on K–8 and progresses to evaluating the validity and reliability of the claims, methods, and designs.

  • Communicate scientific and technical information (e.g. about the process of development and the design and performance of a proposed process or system) in multiple formats (including orally, graphically, textually, and mathematically). (HS-PS2-6)

Using Mathematics and Computational Thinking

Mathematical and computational thinking at the 9–12 level builds on K–8 and progresses to using algebraic thinking and analysis, a range of linear and nonlinear functions including trigonometric functions, exponentials and logarithms, and computational tools for statistical analysis to analyze, represent, and model data. Simple computational simulations are created and used based on mathematical models of basic assumptions.

  • Use mathematical representations of phenomena to describe explanations. (HS-PS2-2),(HS-PS2-4)
