In this course students will learn to use scientific reasoning and analytic problem solving to study the fundamental concepts of chemistry with a molecular perspective.
In this course students will learn to use scientific reasoning and analytic problem solving to study the fundamental concepts of chemistry with a molecular perspective.
In unit 1 the student will be learn the basic laboratory skills needed to design and carry out chemistry experiments, and be able to do so safely.
In unit 2, students will review and demonstrate knowledge of basic math skills relevant to this course including scientific notation, appropriate use of significant figures, dimensional analysis, temperature conversions and density calculations.
In unit 3, the students will learn the basics of matter, define matter, describe the physical and chemical properties of matter, understand the processes that define the state of matter and its changes.
In unit 4, students will be able to describe the atomic structure and organization used to arrange the atoms of the natural world.
In unit 5, students will be able to describe how atoms combine to form compounds and by their nature understand properties of these bonds
In unit 6, students will learn how compounds react with each other, if at all, predicting products of chemical reactions based on activity, solubility, and reduction potential.
In Unit 7, students will study mass relationships in chemical reactions to confirm the law of conservation of mass.
In Unit 7, students will study mass relationships in chemical reactions to confirm the law of conservation of mass.
In week 1, the student will know the lab safety rules and policies at Webb and the basic names and functions of laboratory equipment.
In week 2, students will learn to approach questions using the scientific method, interpret results and know the components needed to effectively communicate scientific information.
In weeks 3 and 4, students will be able to define matter and distinguish both physical and chemical properties.
In weeks 5 and 6, students will be able to identify physical and chemical changes and the causes for those changes. They will be familiar with the involvement of energy in these processes.
In week 8, the student will understand the importance of the Periodic Table of the Elements, how it came to be, and its role in organizing chemical information
In weeks 9 and 10, the student will examine various models of the atom and describe atom using various notations.
In week 11, the student will use their understanding of the properties of electrons and protons to predict properties of elements both physical and chemical and assign trends to the periodic table based on these understandings.
In week 12 and 13, students will be able to use their knowledge of valence properties of elements to predict, draw, identify and name ionic and covalent compounds and polyatomic ions that can be formed.
In week 14, we will learn to identify the electronic and molecular geometry of compounds and understand the importance therof to the properties of the compounds
In week 14, we will learn to identify the electronic and molecular geometry of compounds and understand the importance therof to the properties of the compounds
in week 15 and 16, the student will use the understanding of chemical properties to identify types of reactions, predict appropriate compounds which can be formed and to apply the conservation of matter to these equations.
In week 17 and 18, students will use the properties of elements based on the periodic law to predict whether reactions can take place and what those reactions will look like.
In week 20 and 21, students will use the law of conservation of matter to study the stoichiometry of chemical reactions, identifying both limiting reactants and excess as it might apply to the efficiency of reactions.
AND ALL CRAZY WILL BREAK OUT... WEBB 2.0 Starts Today- do you remember polarity? click onward
And how about intermolecular forces? Remember states of matter and changes of states- we'll review and move
Welcome to Webb Chemistry
Assignments and Grading
Renweb will be the go to for assignments- you will be held accountable for due dates found on this website. Be sure to listen in class for any changes made based on daily progress, such as extending deadlines, additional help available, etc., which I will try to add to renweb in a timely fashion.
If an M is present in renweb for an assignment, Webb policy for late and missed work will be in effect and daily deductions will be applied to assignments. Once you return to Webb after an absence, student is allowed 1 week to make up any missed quizzes or tests. If added time is necessary, please reach out to the teacher within 2 days of returning to school.
