LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MASS
DEMO - 2 reactions showing the law of conservation of mass. (Accompanying
data recording sheet)
- summary/conclusion note on back of data sheet
BALANCING EQUATIONS
- fill in blank OH note
- Example using copper wire and Styrofoam balls
- Activity - Jelly Bean Equations.
- additional WS if needed.

3. Goals: Aims/Outcomes-
|
1. To understand conserving mass
2. To be able to balance simple chemical equations
3. Cooperative learning |
|
|
4. Objectives-
|
C2.1 use appropriate terminology related to chemical reactions,
including, but not limited to: compounds, product, and reactant [C]
C2.2 construct molecular models to illustrate the structure of molecules
in simple chemical reactions
(e.g., C + O2 ➞ CO2; 2H2 + O2 ➞ 2H2O),
and produce diagrams of these models [PR, C]
C2. investigate, through inquiry, the characteristics of chemical
reactions;
C2.4 use an inquiry process to investigate the law of conservation
of mass in a chemical reaction (e.g., compare the values before and
after the reaction), and account for any discrepancies
[PR, AI]
C3.2 explain, using the law of conservation of mass and atomic theory,
the rationale for balancing chemical equations
