Product Details

Classic AP Requirement #9—Determination of Mass and Mole Relationship in a Chemical Reaction

Learn the method of continuous variation to determine the mole ratio of the reactants and predict the chemical formula of the product for specific chemical reactions. In Part 1, the students mix known amounts of iron(III) nitrate and sodium hydroxide in a series of reactions to form a precipitate of iron(III) hydroxide. Each reaction contains a different mole ratio of reactants. The students extrapolate the data to determine the optimum ratio of reactants and predict the correct formula of the precipitated product. The experiment is repeated in Part 2 for copper(II) chloride and sodium phosphate.  

Complete for 24 students working in pairs.

Performance Expectations

HS-PS1-1: Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms.
HS-PS1-2: Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.
HS-PS1-5: Apply scientific principles and evidence to provide an explanation about the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs.
