CS2.01 - use appropriate vocabulary to communicate ideas, procedures, and results related to chemical<br />
systems and equilibrium;<br />
CS2.02 - apply Le Chatelier’s principle to predict how various factors affect a chemical system at<br />
equilibrium, and confirm their predictions through experimentation;<br />
CS2.03 - carry out experiments to determine equilibrium constants;<br />
CS2.06 - solve equilibrium problems involving concentrations of reactants and products and K eq ;<br />
CS3.01 - explain how equilibrium principles may be applied to optimize the production of industrial<br />
chemicals;<br />
SIS.01 - demonstrate an understanding of safe laboratory practices by selecting and applying appropriate<br />
techniques for handling, storing, and disposing of laboratory materials, and using appropriate personal<br />
protection;<br />
SIS.02 - select appropriate instruments and use them effectively and accurately in collecting observations<br />
and data;<br />
SIS.03 - demonstrate the skills required to plan and carry out investigations using laboratory equipment<br />
safely, effectively, and accurately;<br />
SIS.04 - demonstrate a knowledge of emergency laboratory procedures;<br />
SIS.05 - select and use appropriate numeric, symbolic, graphical, and linguistic modes of representation<br />
to communicate scientific ideas, plans, and experimental results;<br />
SIS.07 - communicate the procedures and results of investigations for specific purposes by displaying<br />
evidence and information, either in writing or using a computer, in various forms, including flow charts,<br />
tables, graphs, and laboratory reports;<br />
SIS.08 - express the result of any calculation involving experimental data to the appropriate number of<br />
decimal places or significant figures;<br />
SIS.09 - select and use appropriate SI units.<br />
Prior Knowledge & Skills<br />
• Understanding of the Solutions and Solubility unit from SCH3U<br />
• Ability to solve quadratic equations<br />
Planning Notes<br />
• Review and follow all board regulations for the safe handling and disposal of chemicals, e.g., nitric<br />
acid. Teachers should consult (WHMIS) Material Safety Data Sheets for appropriate treatment of<br />
sensitivities to substances being used in the laboratory.<br />
• Gather samples of relevant versus irrelevant or testable versus not testable research questions.<br />
• Prepare a diagnostic quiz based on information from SCH3U if desired for this unit.<br />
• Based on the outcome of the diagnostic assessment the teacher may wish to develop independent<br />
study packages to help strengthen student background knowledge.<br />
• Gather and prepare materials required for the following Activities: 1.1.3 - straws of different<br />
diameter, 50 mL graduated cylinders; 1.1.4 - iodine and bromine tubes, sodium chloride, acetic acid,<br />
calcium carbonate; 1.1.6 - hydrated cobalt chloride, chromate/dichromate solutions etc.; 1.1.8 -<br />
pipettes, volumetric flasks, spectrophotometers if available, Fe(NO 3 ) 3 , KSCN, nitric acid.<br />
• Suggested Note-Taking Styles are provided in the Grade 10 Academic <strong>Profile</strong> Teacher Support<br />
Material - page 3.<br />
• Prepare questions (and solutions) that incorporate practical applications and career components for<br />
the following Activities: 1.1.7 and 1.1.9.<br />
• Prepare lesson notes for Activity 1.1.5.<br />
• Plan such that the entire first period may be used to stimulate student interest, e.g., Act 1.1.1<br />
Carousel Activity.<br />
