Tennessee State Standard(s) to be taught: (Write the entire standard)
SPI 0807.9.1 Recognize that all matter consists of atoms.
SPI 0807.9.3 Classify common substances as elements or compounds based on their symbols or formulas.
SPI 0807.9.9 Use the periodic table to determine the properties of an element.
SPI 0807.9.2 Identify the common outcome of all chemical changes.
SPI 0807.9.10 Identify the reactants and products of a chemical reaction.
SPI 0807.9.8 Interpret the results of an investigation to determine whether a physical or chemical change has occurred.
SPI 0807.9.11 Recognize that in a chemical reaction the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products (Law of
Conservation of Mass).
SPI 0807.9.4 Differentiate between a mixture and a compound.
