Microscopic and MacroscopicMacroscopic-a mix of components to form a main picture.
Microscopic-individual components.
Give an example of something microscopic and explain how it is microscopic.
A cell because it is a small part of something whole.
Importance of Learning ChemistryProduces new materials and makes life easier
and safer.Produces new sources of energy that are
abundant and nonpolluting.
Give two examples of how chemistry is apparent in everyday life.
It produces new materials, and new sources of energy that are abundant and nonpolluting.
Scientific MethodMake observationsFormulate hypothesesPerform experiments
How does the scientific method help you learn chemistry?
The scientific method helps you analyze and learn about an experiment.
Theory, Observation, and LawTheory is a set of tested hypotheses that
gives an overall explanation of some part of nature.
Observations are not theories.An observation is something that is witnessed
and can be recorded.Law tells what happens.
How is a theory different from a law or observation?
A theory is a set of tested hypotheses that gives an overall explanation of some part of nature while an observation is something that can be witnessed and recorded. A law tells what happens.
Strategies for Learning ChemistryRead textbookHands-on mini-labsLab experimentsTeam learning worksheetsClasswork/homeworkTeacher guided learning
Why would pure memorization not be helpful in chemistry?
Chemistry consists of studying concepts and applying them.
Quiz!How are microscopic and macroscopic things
different?Give one example of how chemistry could
negatively impact your life and one example of how chemistry could benefit your life.
What are the parts of scientific method?
Quiz cont.What is a natural law? Give an example of
one. What are some ways you can study for
chemistry?
AnswersMacroscopic things are a mix of components
that form a main picture while microscopic are the individual components.
Chemistry can help us make medicine, but it can also pollute the environment.
Make an observation, formulate a hypothesis, and perform an experiment.
Answers cont. A natural law is a summary of observed
behavior. An example would be the Law of Conservation of Matter.
Read the textbook, hands-on mini-labs, lab experiments, practice/classwork/homework, team-learning worksheets, teacher guided-learning, and active reading questions.
