CH.1: : The student will investigate and understand that experiments in which variables are measured, analyzed, and evaluated produce observations and verifiable data. Key concepts include

CH.1.a: : designated laboratory techniques;

CH.1.d: : manipulation of multiple variables, using repeated trials;

CH.1.e: : accurate recording, organization, and analysis of data through repeated trials;

CH.1.g: : mathematical manipulations including SI units, scientific notation, linear equations, graphing, ratio and proportion, significant digits, and dimensional analysis;

CH.1.h: : use of appropriate technology including computers, graphing calculators, and probeware, for gathering data, communicating results, and using simulations to model concepts;

CH.2: : The student will investigate and understand that the placement of elements on the periodic table is a function of their atomic structure. The periodic table is a tool used for the investigations of

CH.2.a: : average atomic mass, mass number, and atomic number;

CH.2.b: : isotopes, half lives, and radioactive decay;

CH.2.d: : families or groups;

CH.2.e: : periods;

CH.2.f: : trends including atomic radii, electronegativity, shielding effect, and ionization energy;

CH.2.g: : electron configurations, valence electrons, and oxidation numbers;

CH.2.h: : chemical and physical properties; and

CH.2.i: : historical and quantum models.

CH.3: : The student will investigate and understand how conservation of energy and matter is expressed in chemical formulas and balanced equations.

CH.3.a: : nomenclature;

CH.3.b: : balancing chemical equations;

CH.3.c: : writing chemical formulas;

CH.3.d: : bonding types;

CH.3.e: : reaction types; and

CH.3.f: : reaction rates, kinetics, and equilibrium.

CH.4: : The student will investigate and understand that chemical quantities are based on molar relationships.

CH.4.b: : stoichiometric relationships;

CH.4.d: : acid/base theory; strong electrolytes, weak electrolytes, and nonelectrolytes; dissociation and ionization; pH and pOH; and the titration process.

CH.5: : The student will investigate and understand that the phases of matter are explained by kinetic theory and forces of attraction between particles.

CH.5.a: : pressure, temperature, and volume;

CH.5.b: : partial pressure and gas laws;

CH.5.d: : phase changes;

CH.5.e: : molar heats of fusion and vaporization;
