Chemical Changes
Unit Overview
The main emphasis of this unit is the nature of science. The unit provides an introduction toelements and compounds and how differences between them can be explained using the AtomicTheory. The students are introduced to writing symbols and chemical formulae for commonelements and compounds with the use of the periodic table. This unit enables the students todemonstrate physical and chemical changes and relate their application to everyday situations.
Also, the students investigate factors which affect the rate of a chemical reaction so that theresults can be applied in the student's everyday experience.
