Grade+9+Chemistry

Autumn term 2015
**If you miss a lesson, it is** // __your__ // **responsibility to catch up with the work before the next lesson.**

This is in the school rules. It is also really important if you want to have all the work for tests.You might find resources on these pages to help you but it is best that you borrow notes/get copies of sheets from friends who were in the lesson. You will not get any sympathy or test concessions if you do not catch up ! **If you miss a test, you will automatically be put into the next läksyparkki (Wednesday 14.00).**

 * **Week** || **Activity** || **Learning Outcomes** || **Resources** || **Homework** || **Deadline** || **IB stuff like concepts, questions etc.** ||
 * 33 10 Aug || No lessons - first week of school :) ||  ||   ||   ||   ||   ||
 * 34 17 Aug || Monday: issuing notebooks, safety instructions etc.

Wednesday: Carbon – revising atomic structure. Electron shells; nucleus; bonding. Covalent bonds || Recall the structure of an atom

Identify how many neutrons, protons and electrons are in an atom from the atomic mass and number of that element

Draw electron shells for elements up to those of atomic number 20

Identify compounds which bond ionically (from their names)

Explain how molecular bonds join atoms together ||

Check back to last year's work for all the electronic structures and basic ideas for atomic composition (mass number, number, shells etc.)

Covalent or molecular bonds: Ilmiö p. 129-134 || Read through previous notes and check understanding. || For next lesson ||  ||
 * 35 24 Aug || // Forms of carbon - allotropes //

// Graphite, diamond, bucky balls, graphene // // Properties - hardness; conductivity. // || * define the term allotrope
 * the structures and properties of the two most common forms of carbon
 * apply ideas about bonding to explain the properties of diamond and graphite || [] Allotropes of carbon

Changing graphite to diamond: LifeGem

// Ilmiö p.233-236 //

Buckyballs

The story of graphene from University of Manchester

Will graphene change the world? Interesting article ||  ||   || In Primo Levi's book, The Periodic Table there is an incredible chapter on carbon. here is a link to Levi reading it.

An amzing concept: there are atoms in us all which were in Hitler, in Jesus, in the first humans, and will also be in the very last ones too. ||
 * 36 1 Sep || // Carbon cycle //

// Fossil fuel formation. // // What are fossil fuels ? //

// Balancing simple chemical equations // || * outline the process by which fossil fuels were formed [|Circle of life video] nice way of presenting it
 * identify the main stages of the carbon cycle
 * balance simple chemical equations || ** Carbon cycle video : global carbon cycle **


 * Worksheet:**



Photosynthesis, respiration, combustion as chemical processes
 * Weds:**

Equation balancing rules: 1.There must be the same number of each type of atom on each side of the reaction (eg the number of atoms of element X in the reactants must be the same as the number of atoms of element X in the products) 2. You cannot change the molecules produced by altering the 'small numbers' - you can only change the large numbers eg 2H 2 O not H 4 O

Lesson notes:

|| Complete the carbon cycle sheet (Monday if not done in lesson

Weds: 1. Why is Qatar's carbon footprint per capita so high ?

2. Why is Finland's carbon footprint per capita relatively high ?

If you google about Qatar, consider the wisdom of voting for the soccer world cup final being held here! || For next lesson ||  ||
 * 37 8 Sep || Products from fossil fuels

Products from oil || describe how a mixture of liquids (or gases) can be separated using distillation Video clip about fractional distillation
 * identify the main products from distilling crude oil
 * give uses for the main products
 * describe the structure of the simple products
 * define the term isomer
 * draw structural isomers for simple alkanes
 * calculate the formula for an alkane with N carbon atoms || [[image:karinparker/fractioning_column.jpg width="173" height="242"]]
