Document: Copper Wire in Silver Nitrate Abstract: Determine the relative number of moles of reactant and product for a chemical reaction.  

Document: Science Unit 3 (Revised)-2 Abstract: Unit three is Exploring Change, specifically bonds, energy, and reactions.  The change to be investigated will include indicators of chemical reactions as they relate to chemical bonding and energy changes. Chapters 7 and 8 cover ionic and covalent bonding respectively, while chapters 9 and 19 are the introduction to stoichiometry, chemical reactions. Again, a review...

Chemistry Unit 2 – Finding Patterns-4 Abstract: This unit, Finding Patterns, takes an inquiry approach to understanding the patterns of properties that exist among the elements. These patterns in properties are then linked to the wave-mechanics concept of atomic structure and the quantum atom. Beginning with isotopes and average atomic mass, as a way of understanding the importance of the...

Document: Unit 3 Section 2 Energy Abstract: This unit introduces students to the topic of energy and the ideas of energy conservation. The students begin by developing understandings about the different forms of energy (i.e. Kinetic and Potential). Students then connect these concepts to develop an understanding about the law of conservation of energy. Furthermore, the unit provides the students...

Document: http://sciencecases.lib.buffalo.edu/cs/collection/detail.asp?case_id=304&id=304 Abstract: What is a googol?  Invented by Edward Kasner, an American mathematician who popularized the number in his 1940 book, Mathematics and the Imagination, it is a 1 followed by a hundred zeros. This directed case in estimation and very large numbers was written for a college-level introductory astronomy course, although it could also be used in a variety of...

Document: http://sciencecases.lib.buffalo.edu/cs/collection/detail.asp?case_id=466&id=466 Abstract: In this dilemma case, the central character, a museum curator, must decide whether or not to show a painting as a hitherto “undiscovered” Cezanne. The stylistic analysis suggests it is for real, but data obtained using different spectroscopic techniques are inconclusive. Students study the data and then make a decision as to whether they believe the painting is...

Document: Anatomical Sport Abstract: Your mission is to write a description of a sport or action, (such as kicking a soccer ball or riding a bike) using complex anatomical terminology. You must describe (NOT LIST) all body parts, directions, actions and sport equipment in descriptive terms. You may NOT give hints using the names of body parts or pieces of...
