This is a live class. There is also a flex version of this class. Each week in this 6-week course students will view an interesting interactive presentation. The class will include demonstrations and optional in class experiments. Most labs are prerecordings of me performing the experiment. However, I will teach each step live over zoom as we pause and work through the video. I prerecord the labs to ensure I can watch the students over zoom to help them properly perform each step. The...
After this 6 week course students will be able to: Compare and contrast protons, neutrons, and electrons. Describe the forces that hold the particles of atoms together. Define atomic number and mass number. Describe ions and isotopes Identify the particles called quarks State Democritus’s theory about the atom. Outline Dalton’s atomic theory. Explain how Thomson discovered electrons. Describe how Rutherford found the nucleus. Define energy levels. Describe the electron cloud and orbitals. Describe Mendeleev’s periodic table of the elements. Give an overview of the modern periodic table of the elements. Identify properties of metals. List properties of nonmetals. Describe metalloids. Relate valence electrons to reactivity of elements by class. Identify hydrogen and alkali metals. Describe alkaline Earth metals. List properties of transition metals. Identify groups containing metalloids. Give properties of halogens. Describe noble gases.
Homework Offered
Students will receive assignments/worksheets weekly that will reinforce what was learned in class. The assignments will be submitted online using a link that I will provide in the classroom. The assignments/worksheets will provide them with instant feedback on their performance. Parts of the assignment in which students are having trouble will be reviewed during the next class. On some weeks In addition to the optional in class experiments, students can complete optional experiments outside of the class.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
