NGSS Justification of Lesson NGSS in boldface (Barnes’ justifications in italics) HS-PS1-1: 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.(Sodium, from the left (group 1A), with one valence e-, loses 1 e- to become Na+. Chlorine, from the right (group 7A), with seven valence e-, gains 1 e- to become Cl-.) HS-PS1-2: Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.(Sodium and chlorine, being a metal and a nonmetal, react to form sodium chloride. The sodium loses electrons, which chlorine gains. The positive sodium ions are attracted by ionic bonds to the negative chloride ions.) HS-PS1-3: Plan and conduct an investigation to gather evidence to compare the structure of substances at the bulk scale to infer the strength of electrical forces between particles.(Sodium chloride is a robust solid at room temperature, with a strong crystal structure and a high melting point due to the powerful ionic bonding between its cations & anions. However, the polarity of the water molecule allows water molecules to dissolve salt, forming an aqueous solution of solvated ions.) HS-PS1-5: Apply scientific principles and evidence to provide an explanation about the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs. (Salt will dissolve in water faster if the water is hot. Higher temperatures mean faster-moving particles, so ions are more likely to break free of their crystal lattice AND faster-wandering water molecules will arrive at the surface of salt crystals at a higher frequency and carry away solvated ions faster. Salt dissolving in water may not be a chemical reaction per se, but the principle of temperature speeding it up is very much akin to the principle that higher temperatures speed up chemical reactions.) HS-PS2-6: Communicate scientific and technical information about why the molecular-level structure is important in the functioning of designed materials. (The connection between this lesson and this standard is disturbingly similar to the connection to HS-PS1-3 . . . ) HS-PS3-2: Develop and use models to illustrate that energy at the macroscopic scale can be accounted for as a combination of energy associated with the motions of particles (objects) and energy associated with the relative positions of particles (objects). (Higher temperature salt water means faster-moving water molecules and more furiously-jiggling salt crystal ions. Ions in a salt crystal are at a relatively low level of potential energy relative to what they would have if they were separated solidity.)
SWBAT. . . . . . explain why and how salt dissolves in water
IMPORTANT: As you draw on our “Salt Crystal DissolvingSkeleton Notes” worksheet, leave the right side of the sheet blank until I say it’s okay to draw there.

Group leaders, on your whiteboards, write a brief description of what is pictured inside the square on your worksheet. Everyone, on your worksheets, use block letters to label what the thing in the square is supposed to be. On our worksheet, the salt crystal looks like a square.

Salt ions on the outside of the crystal are attracted to the partial electric charges on the water molecules. Salt ions on the outside of the crystal are pulled off by water molecules, which then wander away with them. The salt crystal dissolves.

Now that we know how a salt crystal dissolves . . . TPS 59 seconds: List some things that would help a salt crystal dissolve. Salt crystals dissolving requires water molecules to wander randomly so that they can bump into the outside surfaces of the salt crystals. Therefore, if the water is hotter, water molecules will wander faster and hit the salt crystal harder and more often. If the water is hotter, ions in salt crystals will jiggle more violently, making it easier for them to break away from their attractive ion neighbors. If the water is stirred, the salty water around a dissolving crystal will get replaced with fresh water, speeding the dissolving process by slowing the re-crystallization process. If the salt is ground into a fine powder, the increase in surface area will allow it to dissolve faster than if it were still large crystals. Since salt ions need to be solvated, there had better be plenty of water molecules to surround them. More solvent allows more solute to dissolve.
Okay. Now it’s time for a little quiz. Flip your worksheet over.
Take the quiz. Your score on the quiz will not affect your grade, but finding out how you did will help you figure out what you know and what you don’t know. When you’re done, bring your answer document to the teacher’s desk so you can have it scanned. We’ll go over the questions when everybody is done. Until then, if you’re done with the quiz, answer the essay question on the back of your worksheet, below the multiple choice questions.
Okay. Let’s go over the quiz. I encourage you to take notes on the back of your worksheet as we discuss the answers.
ATTENTION: The slides after this one are all construction zone stuff. Students, don’t bother moving forward beyond this slide.

NEW IDEA: The concentration at which dissolving happens just as fast as crystallization is the maximum possible concentration of the solute. This special concentration is the “solubility” of the solute. 3D MANIPULABLE MODEL IDEA: Styro balls w/ x, y, & z axis holes drilled in them Painted with poster paint to be green chlorine and light grey sodium Velcro squares x 6/ball (hooks = neg; fuzz = +) sewn to coaxial opposites by thread @ their midpoints to next door neighbors w/thread at their corners
