Unit Description and Student Understandings:
This unit focuses on problem solving, moles, and the quantitative relationship between these concepts and the substances involved.
Students will understand the mole concept and its relationship to formulas and equations by examining data collected and solving mathematical problems. An
understanding of composition and reaction stoichiometry changes during reactions will be demonstrated by solving stoichiometry problems relating to formulas
(percentage composition and empirical and molecular formulas problems) and equations (mass-mass, mass-volume, volume-volume, and mole-mole problems).
Guiding Questions:




Can students describe the mole as a counting word/quantity and demonstrate the ability to solve mole conversion problems?
Can students experimentally determine a chemical formula of a compound?
Can students mathematically determine the chemical formula of a compound?
Can students use balanced equations to solve mass/mass, mass/volume, volume/volume, mole/mole problems, and limiting reactant problems?
Key Concepts:

4.
Write and defend a conclusion about the relationship among the number of particles, containers, and mass based on logical analysis of the data obtained from this
activity.
Determine the empirical formula of an ionic compound.
Model chemical reactions and explain the Law of Conservation of matter.
Write and balance equations, predict products, using a solubility chart to predict the formation of a precipitate, and solving stoichiometry problems.
