Daily Standard
SC1.e Construct an explanation of light emission and the movement of electrons to identify elements
SC1.f Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms (i.e. including atomic radii, ionization energy, and electronegativity).
Daily Learning Target
I can organize elements based on the light emission spectrum or flame test. (Reasoning)
I can construct an explanation of how light is produced by the movement of electrons in atoms. (Reasoning)
Agenda:
Opening- Read through lab protocol and generate questions
Secure the Foundation- Read Background information PDF
Explanation of Lab Activity and Division of Groups
Students work in groups to collect their flame test data
Students work in groups to annalize emission spectrum data
Closing- Complete Post-Lab Analysis Questions
This lesson will take place on campus during your assigned class period. Attendance is required.
Any students who are absent the day of the lab need to make transportation arrangements to do the lab the next Wednesday cafe day from 1:30 to 3:00 pm.
Your Unit 1 test is scheduled for Friday, August 25th. You will be given a list of time slots during which you can have your test proctored by me via your Chromebook and GoGuardian. In closing, you will begin preparing for the Unit 1 test.
Complete the Unit 1 Study Guide linked in the buttons on the left. You will have several days to work on this.
Review the material in Unit 1 using the notes you took each day so far, and the instructional videos on this website.
