Module 2 – Classification of Matter –

4 hours (No Labs) due July 10th! 

Link to Module 2 worksheets:                                                                  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/17bjiJgF09TU16v_sVdMrvk-aQyii1MZa?usp=sharing

*Connection – We have done 2 labs to practice our measuring and calculation skills with numbers that come from measurement.  In these two labs we were dealing with different forms of matter. They are all chemicals as every type of matter (something that takes up space) is made up of different atoms (lab 1) or different arrangement of atoms (lab 2).  The classification of these chemicals is an important part of understanding of why certain chemical behave differently (have different properties).

Activity 3:  SKILL: Classification of Matter Activity Reinforcer – Models 
Notes: pages 11,12 & 13
 
1: Watch the Nuts Bolts Washers classification video and when asked to please classify below in the form below that will be an immediate feedback form.  Carefully use the multiple choice list below to make your choices of classification.

Activity 4:  SKILL: Classification of Matter Activity Reinforcer – Models 2
Notes: pages 11,12, & 13
 
1: Please View Lecture 1.8 – Diatomic Elements and Monoatomic Elements 
 
2. Using the whiteboards of matter (atoms, molecules, mixtures) that my past students have done fill in the form. You will be classifying these models of matter in the form.  
 

 

 

1 : Lecture 1.8 – Diatomic and Monoatomic molecules:

 

Student Whiteboards: to move to next whiteboard please click on the arrow on the upper right side of this gadget.  You can also zoom in and out.  If you are having trouble viewing please refresh browser.

 

 

Please scroll down in the form so you can still view the whiteboards above.

 

For those that are still having problems with classifying diagrams I have posted a key of the first 6 whiteboards for your review.
 
In Diagram 6: I have 2 elements classified when it should be 3. Thanks Emma Strebel

 

Activity 5:  Classification of Matter Activity – Using Real Chemicals

 Notes: page 11, 12, & 13  – Elements, Compounds, Mixtures, OH My Activity
 

1: Please Classify the Real Chemicals using the worksheet below and by playing the                                                        Elements, Compounds, Mixtures, OH My Activity playlist below, table by table.

 

Compounds Mixtures Oh My packet.pdf

 
Use the Packet above to classify the chemicals in the video playlist below.  The 1st page of the packet is the worksheet you will use to classify.  Each video below has a Table with chemicals to classify and YOU MUST USE THE PAGE IN THE PACKET THAT MATCHES the video for each table to make sense of the activity.

 
-Each Table has three chemicals, the third is a result of physical or chemical change of the first 2.
       a) Click on the following icon in the playlist below to view each table (please go in order)
             or just hit play:                                                                                                                                                                                               

 

1 : Elements, Compounds, Mixtures, OH My – Video playlist for Activity.

2. Once you are done classifying please compare and contrast Mixtures vs. Compounds
