How can scientists count invisible particles?





The mole concept
Use of the mole road map to solve mole problems including subparticle problems
Gas density problems
Percent composition
Empirical and molecular formulas




Students will develop the ability to:
Solve mole problems for mass, volume, representative particles or subparticles
Use gas density to determine unknown molar masses or given the molar mass, dermine the theoretical gas density
Determine the percent of any element in a compound
Calculate the empirical formula from lab analysis data
Given a molar mass, determine the molecular formula from the empirical formula



Coop. groups--peer tutor mole problems
Individual tutoring of students not mastering mole problems
How big is a mole lab activity using beams
Practice solving gas density problems and percent composition problems
Use of lab analysis data to determine empirical formulas
Practice determining molecular formulas from molar masses and the empirical formula




Students must attain at leat a 90% on the mole problem quiz or they must continue studying and obtaining extra help and retaking mole problem quizzes until they do score 90%
Lab analysis
Tests

Assessment is based on a total point system. Lab reports range between 50 and 100 points. Quizzes range between 10 and 25 points. Tests range between 100 and 200 points. Homework ranges between 5 and 15 points. Performance based grading ranges between 5 and 20 points.
