Topic 1 Structure of Matter

  • CII1-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.

  • CII-PS1-1AR Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information on the evolution of atomic models over time.

  • CII-PS1-2AR Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information using Coulomb's law to describe and predict patterns of electrostatic forces between particles.

  • CII-PS1-3AR Use mathematical representations and computational thinking to support a claim that patterns exist among the frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves.

  • CII-PS1-4AR Analyze and interpret data of absorption and emission of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation and models of the atom.

  • CII-PS1-8 Develop models to illustrate the changes in the composition of the nucleus of the atom and the energy released during the processes of fission, fusion, and radioactive decay.

  • CII-PS4-3 Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning behind the idea that electromagnetic radiation can be described either by a wave model or a particle model, and that for some situations one model is more useful than the other.

  • CII1-ETS1-3 Evaluate a solution to a complex real-world problem based on prioritized criteria and tradeoffs that account for a range of constraints, including cost, safety, reliability, and aesthetics, as well as possible social, cultural, and environmental impacts.

Topic 2 Properties of Matter

Topic 3 Reactions

Topic 4 Kinetics and Kinetic Molecular Theory

  • CII-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.

  • CII-PS4-1AR Plan and carry out investigations to examine stability and change exhibited by gas particles in a closed system.

  • CII4-ETS1-4 Use a computer simulation to model the impact of proposed solutions to a complex real-world problem with numerous criteria and constraints on interactions within and between systems relevant to the problem.

Topic 5 Thermochemistry

  • CII-PS1-4 Develop a model to illustrate that the release or absorption of energy from a chemical reaction system depends upon the changes in total bond energy.

  • CII-PS5-1AR Analyze and interpret data to explain energy (enthalpy) changes of a reaction.
