07.0 SCIENCE

07.0.2.9.1 -- Students will recognize that many Western as well as non-Western cultures (e.g., Egyptian, Chinese, Hindu, Arabic, Mayan) have developed scientific ideas and solved human problems through technology

07.0.2.9.2 -- Students will recognize that changes in science usually occur as small modifications in existing knowledge and result in incremental advances in our understanding of the world and our ability to met human needs and aspirations

07.0.2.9.3 -- Students will recognize that occasionally there are advances in science and technology that have important and long-lasting effects on science and society (e.g., the Copernican revolution, plate tectonics, biological evolution, germ theory, industrial revolution, technological revolution)

07.0.2.9.4 -- Students will recognize that the study of scientific explanations throughout history demonstrates how scientific knowledge changes and evolves over time, building on earlier knowledge.

07.0 SCIENCE

07.0.11.9.2 -- Students will explain how the chemical and physical properties of substances are related to their atomic and molecular structures

07.0.11.9.3 -- Students will use the Periodic Table to predict common properties of elements

07.0.12.9.5 -- Students will describe the nature of different types of waves, how they are produced, and how they transfer energy

07.0.13.9.3 -- Students will describe how energy changes can be related to structural processes and modifications at the atomic and molecular levels

07.0.13.9.4 -- Students will recognize that energy changes in atoms and molecules occur in fixed increments

07.0.13.9.6 -- Students will explain how radiation and matter interact in terms of the absorption and emission of energy by individual atoms, molecules and their aggregates

07.0 SCIENCE

07.0.13.9.7 -- Students will recognize that waves may interact with the materials they enter

07.0.13.9.8 -- Students will recognize the types of radiation (e.g., light, radio, microwave, X-ray) which comprise the electromagnetic spectrum

30.0 WORLD LANGUAGE



How does the quantum mechanical model explain the current observations of the behavior of atoms?




1. Quantum mechanical model of the atom
2. Quantum numbers and shapes of orbitals
3. Electron configuration and orbital notation
4. The dual nature of light
5. Relationship between frequency and wavelength and energy.
