Honors/Gifted Chemistry

Monday

Standard(s): SC3d. Use mathematics and computational thinking to identify and solve different types of reaction stoichiometry problems (i.e., mass to moles, mass to mass, moles to moles, and percent yield) using significant figures. 

LT: We are learning how to identify and solve different types of reaction stoichiometry problems using significant figures.

SC: 

• I can define stoichiometry, mole ratio, actual yield, theoretical yield, and percent yield.

• I can determine the mole ratio using the quantities of reactants and products in a balanced chemical equation. 

• I can use the mole ratio to solve stoichiometry problems.

• I can calculate percent yield using the actual and theoretical yield.

Lesson/Activity:

• Differentiated Instruction: Two different group activities going on at the same time, since everyone cannot be in the lab at the same time. 

A. Lab #11: “S’mores Stoichiometry” 

B. Mole Airlines activity (empirical formula math to solve a CSI-type crime scene)

• Take notes on “Stoichiometry” - slides in Google Classroom

• HW: Flocabulary on “Acids and Bases” due tonight by 11:59 p.m.; Reading Assignments #27 and #28 are due Tuesday and Thursday of this week; Unit 6 Quiz scheduled for Thursday has been cancelled due to the AP Testing this week.

Resources: 

• Modern Chemistry by Holt, Rinehart, and Winston 

• Promethean Board and ActivInspire (Stoichiometry notes in Google Classroom)

• Chromebooks for Flocabulary 

• Lab equipment - S’mores items, Bunsen burner, flint striker, wooden splints, napkins, goggles, and aprons.

Tuesday

LT: We are learning how to identify and solve different types of reaction stoichiometry problems using significant figures.

SC: 

• I can define stoichiometry, mole ratio, actual yield, theoretical yield, and percent yield.

• I can determine the mole ratio using the quantities of reactants and products in a balanced chemical equation. 

• I can use the mole ratio to solve stoichiometry problems.

• I can calculate percent yield using the actual and theoretical yield.

Lesson/Activity:

• Check R.A. #27.

• Review Factor-Label Method and Mole-to-Mole conversions (worksheet).

• Limiting Reactant (Donut Investigation Doodle Notes) and Stoichiometry vocabulary word search sheet (get blue stamp)

• Finish Stoichiometry notes

• Finish Mole Airlines to turn in for a grade and Lab (for any missing students yesterday).

• HW: Reading Assignments #28 due on Thursday, May 8th. The Extra Credit Flocabulary has opened, and it will close on Friday, May 9th. (It can be used to replace your lowest Flocabulary grade, as a new quiz grade, or excused for not doing it! It cannot be counted twice, and it cannot be in class!!)

Resources: 

• Modern Chemistry by Holt, Rinehart, and Winston 

• Promethean Board and ActivInspire

• Mole Airlines activity using calculators

Lesson/Activity:

• Three examples of Reaction Stoichiometry (notes section)

• Finish Donut sheet for blue stamp.

• Catch up on missing work (fill in missing things in the gradebook), reading assignments (missing or upcoming due to AP testing), and Seniors work on notebooks due this Friday.

• HW: R.A. #28 due tomorrow; work on Notebooks and lab write-ups.

Resources:

Thursday

Standard(s): SC5c: Develop and use models to quantitatively, conceptually, and graphically represent the relationships between pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of a gas.

LT: We are learning how to represent the relationships between pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of a gas.

SC: 

• I can define pressure, volume, temperature, and moles.

• I can describe the basic principles of Kinetic Molecular Theory as it relates to gas particles.

• I can use models to represent the relationships between pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of a gas.

• I can use equations to calculate changes in pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of a gas.

Lesson/Activity:

• Check R.A. #28.

• Finish the last two pages of the Lab #11 using the Promethean “whiteboard” and calculators.

• Start designing your Pointillism Projects.

• HW: Senior Notebooks are due tomorrow!! R.A. #29 next Tuesday (Last R.A. for graduating Seniors); work on notebooks, lab write-ups, etc.

Resources: 

• Modern Chemistry by Holt, Rinehart, and Winston

• Promethean Board and Chromebooks

• Pointillism Projects, markers, and paper
