Product Details

Students enhance their understanding of intermolecular forces by determining the distribution of acetic acid between water and 1-octanol. A pre-lab homework assignment introduces the ideas and concepts needed to succeed on lab day. This time-saving activity has been designed to fit into a single 50-minute wet lab period. Complete for 24 students working in pairs.

Performance Expectations

HS-PS1-3: Plan and conduct an investigation to gather evidence to compare the structure of substances at the bulk scale to infer the strength of electrical forces between particles.
HS-PS2-4: Use mathematical representations of Newton’s Law of Gravitation and Coulomb’s Law to describe and predict the gravitational and electrostatic forces between objects.
HS-PS3-1: Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known.
HS-PS3-5: Develop and use a model of two objects interacting through electric or magnetic fields to illustrate the forces between objects and the changes in energy of the objects due to the interaction.
