360Storylines—Recipes, 1-Year Access

Product Details

A 360Storyline is a collection of experiments that together let students engage in science in an authentic manner through the use of relevant phenomena. Each experiment in a 360Storyline builds on things learned in the preceding experiments until students develop a final, working explanation or model of the phenomenon. Every lab in any 360Storyline is completely editable and supported by videos and simulations. 

Includes:

• Access to digital content for 1 year
• Lab supplies for each experiment for a single class of 30 students

Recipes
Lead students to a written understanding/working model of how chemicals combine and in what ratios to determine the outcome of a reaction. The best example of this is the success or failure of a recipe. Stoichiometry plays a pivotal role in chemistry. If reactants are not combined using the correct molar ratios, the outcome of the products can be greatly affected. Baking, for example, relies heavily on the correct ingredients being added in the proper ratios. If you do not add enough leavening agent, the cake will be flat and dense. If you do not add the proper amount of acid, the leavening agent will not be activated and you will again be left with disappointment.

What Students Do

Lab 1—Identify Unknowns Through Stoichiometry
Students evaluate metal carbonate samples using titration and use that information to determine the identity of an unknown metal carbonate compound.

Lab 2—Determination of Reaction Output
Students must use stoichiometry calculations to determine the mass of reactants needed for a target mass of product.

Lab 3—Formation of Barium Iodate
Students investigate limiting and excess reagents using the formation of barium iodate.

Lab 4—The Stoichiometry of Filling a Balloon
Students investigate the limitation of reactions, using acetic acid and sodium bicarbonate to fill a balloon.

About 360Storylines

A 360Storyline is a collection of experiments that together let students engage in science in an authentic manner through the use of relevant phenomena. Each experiment in a 360Storyline builds on things learned in the preceding experiments until students develop a final, working explanation or model of the phenomenon. Every lab in any 360Storyline is completely editable and supported by videos and simulations. 

Students must drive the learning forward by developing procedures and asking questions. Each storyline is supported by editable documents that force students to think about how the data they collect relate to an individual experiment’s investigative phenomenon and how the data they collect in a series of labs relate to a broader, anchoring phenomenon.
