Johnny Dickson

Chemistry High School

Week of: 8/29-9/2 Chapter 2

Monday 8/29    

Obj: TWS a) Distinguish between a quantity, a unit, and a measurement standard.

  b) Name SI units for length, mass, time, volume, and density.

  c) Distinguish between mass and weight.

  d) Perform density calculations.

  e) Transform a statement of equality to a conversion factor.

Activity: TSW have discussion over the scientific method and how to put it to use. After brief lecture on SM, TSW start on unit conversions by going over examples that I provide.  The density formula will be incorporated into the unit conversion examples.

Obj: TSW a) Name SI units for length, mass, time, volume, and density.

  b) Distinguish between mass and weight.

  c) Perform density calculations.

  d) Transform a statement of equality to a conversion factor.

Activity: TSW practice on unit conversion by using the Train Track Technique.

Thursday 9/1

TEK: 2A, 2B, 2E, 2C

Obj: TWS a) Name what size proportions coincide with SI base units.

  b) Perform unit conversion for grams to moles.

Activity: Once again TSW practice on the Train Track Technique after taking a review quiz over the reading assignment.

Handout:  Review Quiz over the reading assignment.

Friday 9/2

TEK: 2A-D,

Obj: TSW a) Distinguish between accuracy and precision.

    b) Determine the number of significant figures in measurement.

Activity: TSW work in groups and discuss the difference between accuracy and precision. TSW observe which lab equipment will measure more A and P. Basically accuracy and precision to scale. During unit conversions TSW determine what the significant figures are.

Handout:  None

Homework: Due
