Unit Plan Matter Chemical Trends and Bonding Sch3u
OVERVIEW
A unit plan for Matter, Chemical Trends and Chemical Bonding, from the Grade 11 University Chemistry Stream curriculum. The
unit focuses on electronegativity, different types of bonds and an understanding the periodic table. First, ions and the octet rule
with be reviewed with the assistance of Bohr-Rutherford diagrams. Second, the properties and functionality of the periodic table
will be discussed along with the different families, groups and periods and what the relationship is between the three.
Electronegativity, ionization energy and atomic radius will also be discussed. Additional links are made to safety and WHMIS. The
final portion of the unit will be focused on different types of bonding interactions and nomenclature. This unit would be done as
the first unit of the year, as safety and WHMIS can be covered first. Many of these concepts are also needed in later units, so it is
best to teach this first. This plan attempts to maximize engagement by maximizing hands-on learning and student discussion, as
well as providing activities that relate to the real world. Students are encouraged to think critically about research on chemicals
present in everyday substances. It also provides students opportunities to learn outside to relate to the natural world they are
studying.

Overview
This lesson would likely be taught at the very beginning of a semester. The goal of this class is to find out what students know
about atomic theory through assessment for learning, and also give them an idea of the plan for this unit. I also hope to have
students sign a safety contract and review WHMIS. I will start by introducing the periodic table and ask students what they know
about it and what questions they have about it to activate prior knowledge and provide an immediate assessment. The lesson will
then move into a general view of what will be discussed this unit (safety, MSDS, periodic trends, bonding, Lewis diagrams, and
compounds). We will then start with the safety portion and review WHMIS with students. The students will then write a short
quiz to assess prior knowledge on the content covered in this unit. Once the quiz is complete, the students would then create
a Safety cue card for the remainder of the class so that they have a pocket-sized guide that they can refer to throughout the year.
This card would have general lab rules on one side and the WHMIS symbols and meanings on the other. At the end of the class,
students will write a list of 3 things they want to learn about on a cue card to be collected and addressed by the teacher to be
incorporated into the unit (if possible).

Lesson 2 Ions and the Octet Rule & Bohr-Rutherford Diagrams
Overview
The goal is to understand how anions and cations are formed and the Octet rule. Bohr-Rutherford diagrams will be used as a tool
to visually show the Octet rule and the formation of ions. The teacher will introduce the idea of an ion and pose the question on
how ions are formed (assessment of prior knowledge). The teacher will then introduce the idea of the Octet rule. Bohr-Rutherford
diagrams will then be introduced. Students will then be given a worksheet to practice these diagrams and develop an
understanding on the creation of cations and anions. Students can work in groups or independently. Students will then peer
assess each others work (Assessment As Learning), and students will have the chance to learn from one another. In the last
portion of the lesson, any questions will be addressed and a couple of examples from the worksheet will be shown on the board.
As students leave, they will complete an exit slip on one thing they learned, one thing they still have questions about and one
thing they are interested in knowing more about.

Overview
The goal of this lesson is to have students form hypotheses and be introduced to isotopes and radioisotopes. Students will also
learn how to determine the atomic mass of elements when given a mass and relative abundance of different isotopes. Real-life
examples will be integrated into the lesson, like medical imaging and nuclear reactors. Students will be able to differentiate
between isotopes and radioisotopes and provide examples. A short presentation will introduce radioisotopes and have examples
3
on how to determine the relative abundance and the atomic mass of different isotopes. Students will be given a worksheet after
the short lesson where they can use the school laptops to research different uses of radioisotopes and calculate the atomic mass
and relative abundances of radioisotopes. In the final part of the lesson, students can share their results of different uses of the
radioisotopes and have a class discussion.

Overview
The goal is to understand how certain elements are more reaction than others and to develop the reactivity series of metals
through investigation. The lesson will start of with the teacher showing a demonstration reaction between zinc and sulfuric acid.
Students will be asked to inquire about the result and write the balanced chemical equation. A second demonstration will then
take place, with students making a hypothesis about the reaction before the teacher does it. The reaction is that between copper
and hydrochloric acid. Students will be asked to compare the reactivity of the zinc and copper reactions. After this, students will
perform an investigation where they will complete a series of reactions. Through this investigation, they will develop the series of
reactivity. They will complete a worksheet as they go through the investigation. In the last portion of the lesson, students will
come together for a class discussion about the findings on what was the most reactive element and the least reactive element.

Overview
The goal for this lesson is develop an understanding of the periodic table and discover basic features. Terms like atomic number,
atomic mass, valence electrons will be reviewed. Students will be divided into small groups (2-3 students) and the classroom
periodic table will be covered. Each group will be given a stack of cue cards with the first 20 elements on them. The cards will
have the atomic number, name, atomic mass and symbol on them. Based on the information on the card, students will have to
determine the number of protons, electrons and neutrons are present in each compound, the number of shells the compound has
and how many valence electrons are present. They will then have to arrange the cue cards following three rules:

Lesson 6 The Periodic Table: Families
Overview
The goal is for students to learn about the different families that are present in the periodic table and their characteristics. An
introduction is given on the names of the key groups, and students will be questioned on why they think elements within groups
react in similar ways. After the initial introductions, students will work in groups and pick an element within the group to
investigate. Each group member will investigate the elements reactivity, uses, state, etc. and then compare those results to
other students who are investigating other elements in the group. Students will then present their findings to the rest of the class
the following day (~5 mins).

Lesson 7 Periodic Trends: Electronegativity, Ionization Energy, Atomic Radius and Periodic Law
Overview
The goal of this lesson is to introduce periodic trends in terms of electronegativity, ionization energy, atomic radius and periodic
law. Each of these terms will be defined at the beginning of the lesson, and then students will perform an investigation on
periodic trends through the ACS website. Students will investigate on any trends that may be present based on the information
found in this interactive applet. They will then fill in the trends on a blank periodic table. The lesson will end with a recap on what
the trends mean and students can compare their research to the true trends supplied by the teacher.

Overview
The goal of this lesson is to introduce Lewis Diagrams and have students draw their own Lewis Diagrams. The teacher will first
explain Lewis diagrams and demonstrate multiple examples of both an ionic and covalent bond using the diagrams. Students will
then have the chance to practice creating Lewis dot diagrams on a worksheet that they will work on individually. Once the
worksheets have been completed, students can then share their answers and write them up on the board. They can then explain
their reasoning behind their diagram and can be challenged by other students. In the last portion of the lesson, students will be
asked to brainstorm what they think the difference is between an ionic and a covalent bond for the next days lesson.

Overview
The goal of this lesson is to explore the differences, both chemically and physically, between ionic and covalent compounds. The
lesson will begin with a hook where students view a demonstration done by the teacher. In the demonstration, the teacher will
take a charged rod and put it close to a stream of water to see the end result. Before the demonstration occurs, students will
make predictions on what they think will happen once the rod comes close to the water. Afterwards, the phenomenon displayed
will be addressed. Students will then be introduced to the basic concepts of each type of bonding in the introduction of the
lesson, and then they can launch the ionic and covalent bonding Gizmos to explore these interactions visually. Students will then
be introduced to what contributes to why some compounds are ionic and covalent (electronegativity). The formula for
determining the type of bond that will be present between elements will also be discussed at this point. Students will then be
given a worksheet to complete and hand in at the end of the lesson. The computer lab will need to be booked for this lesson or a
class set of iPads/laptops will need to be signed out.

Overview
The goal of this lesson is to be introduced to the rules of writing the formulas of: ionic compounds without a transition metal, ionic
compounds with a transition metal, covalent compounds, polyatomic compounds. For this lesson, students will begin with a sheet
that has a list of the names of compounds. Students will work in groups on one kind of compound to guess on how they are
named and what the process was to name compounds on the sheet. After students have come up with a method, they will
present that method to other groups in the class. Once this has been completed, the teacher will then confirm or deny the
8
findings from the students and the true rules will be introduced. Students will then work on a worksheet as practice in naming
compounds. Students will complete an exit slip on what the understand and what they still have questions about.

Lesson 11 Nomenclature Continued: Compounds with Polyatomic Ions, Acids & Bases
Overview
The goal of this lesson is to have students learn to name polyatomic ionic compounds and acids and bases. Students will be able
to name these compounds based on the IUPAC naming rules, and can successfully write out the name when given the compound
and vice versa. The lesson will begin with an introduction on how to name these compounds and then comparing the naming to
the rules we determined in the previous days lesson. The students will then engage in a worksheet where they have to name
different kinds of compounds, including those discussed in the previous lesson and those from this lesson. A class review will then
take place as the reflect and connect portion of the lesson. A Kahoot! game will be played with teams of 3-4 members where
review questions will be asked and students will need to respond to earn points for their team. Compounds will be shown as well
as the names and students will have to select the corresponding answer from a list of responses. Candy can be given out as an
incentive.

Overview
The goal of this lesson is to introduce the concept of intermolecular forces and how they can be differentiated from intramolecular
forces. The different type of each interaction will also be explored in greater detail. The students will briefly be introduced to the
lab that they will be performing that day The Surface Tension of Water. In this lab, students will be given a penny (or a nickel, as
pennies are no longer relevant), and they will be investigating how many drops of water can fit on the surface of that penny.
Students will also do this same test using vegetable oil to see how many drops again can fit on the coin of choice. Student will
use a pipette or similar dropper to create the drops. Following the lab, students will share their results with the class and then the
teacher will go into a short presentation why the water has such a high surface tension (hydrogen bonding) and other types of
intermolecular forces. Intramolecular forces will also be discussed briefly.

Overview
The goal of this lesson is to provide students with a real life scenario in which compounds (both ionic and covalent) may have an
impact on society. Students will be shown a video on the dangers of cosmetics, a product that is commonly used, but could be
10
potentially harmful, and they will discuss how they feel and any thoughts they have after watching the video. Students will then
have the opportunity to pick a topic (like cleaners, sulphates in shampoo, phosphates, etc.) and research how the substance
affects the environment and propose ways in which the product could be made safer or identify other substances that could be
used in its place. The students will have the remainder of the class to research their substance (using the provided laptops need
to sign them out), and then they will complete a reflection on their research. In their reflections, they will need to include all of
the aspects mentioned above and and their own thoughts on the meaning of this research. A few days later, students will have
the opportunity to share their own findings and thoughts with the rest of the class if they would like to share.
