Types of Reaction and Predicting Reactions Concept Presentation Winnie Ho HS Science Instructors Janine Extavour & Marty Zatzman
Goal of this presentation Grade 10 teachers: - Differences between Gr 10 and 11 and how to prepare our students Grade 11 teachers: • What Gr 10 students know and common roadblocks in this topic
Teaching sequence in 11U • Unit 1- Matter, Chemical trends, and Chemical Bonding • Unit 2 - Chemical reaction Prior knowledge: - Ionic compounds and covalent molecules - Nomenclature - Balancing equation - Classifying reactions
Curriculum expectation Grade 10 – Chemistry expectations on types of reaction Grade 11 – Chemical reaction (selected expectations on types of reaction)
Grade 10 - Classifying all four reaction types + Neutralization Grade 11 All four reaction types + Activity series + Solubility rules + Neutralization + Combustion + Nuclear reactions Focus on lab inquiry Prediction of products Comparison
Diagnostic assessment • nitric acid + potassium hydroxide ____________+ water Type: ___________ • zinc + ___________ zinc nitrate solution + copper Type: ___________ • __________ acid + zinc carbonate zinc sulfate + water + carbon dioxide Type: ___________ • calcium + chlorine _____________________ Type: ___________ • magnesium + hydrochloric acid __________ + hydrogen Type: ___________ • propane + oxygen _____________________ + water Type: ___________
+ + + + + + + + Sodium and Chlorine reacts to form Sodium chloride
Roadblock #1 Failure to connect symbols to the actual elements A + BAB A can represent an element, a diatomic molecule, or a compound. The ordering of the symbols is important.
Macroscopic Microscopic Symbolic
Roadblock #2 Predicting synthesis vs. combustion rxn Grade 10 – synthesis reaction • Grade 11 –combustion reaction • Reaction of a substance with oxygen, producing oxides and energy (Nelson text) • Combustion of magnesium as an example of a synthesis reaction • Exothermic reaction
Synthesis Reaction! Brad + Angelina Brangelina
Roadblock #3 Predicting single displacement reactions Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq)--> ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(s)
Video Safety concerns: Demo: Li, Na, K with water Goggles, small quantity
Alternatives M + BC MC + B M= metal element N + BC BN + C N= non-metal element
Roadblock #4 Predicting double displacement reactions If a reaction does not produce a precipitate, a gas, or water, then it is not a DD reaction.
Solubility table KOH(aq) + NH4Cl (aq)--> No Reaction
Use of states symbols are important • More consistent usage of state symbols in grade 10 when writing out chemical equations. e.g., NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) H2O (l) + NaCl (aq)
Computer resources • Gizmos • Metals in aqueous solutions simulation Differentiated instruction • Computer simulation (modified versions of activities) • Video • Group work on making connections issues
