Learning Goals for the Unit

Assess the usefulness of and/or the hazards associated with common elements or compounds in
terms of their physical and chemical properties
Assess social, environmental, and economic impacts of the use of common elements or compounds
Use appropriate terminology related to atoms, elements, and compounds, including, but not limited
to: boiling point, mixtures, particle theory, pure substances, and viscosity
Conduct an inquiry to identify the physical and chemical properties of common elements and
compounds
Plan and conduct an inquiry into the properties of common substances found in the laboratory or
used in everyday life (e.g., starch, table salt, wax, toothpaste), and distinguish the substances by
their physical and chemical properties (e.g., physical properties: hardness, conductivity, colour,
melting point, solubility, density; chemical properties: combustibility, reaction with water)
Conduct appropriate chemical tests to identify some common gases (e.g., oxygen, hydrogen, carbon
dioxide) on the basis of their chemical properties, and record their observations
Construct molecular models to represent simple molecules
Explain how different atomic models evolved as a result of experimental evidence (e.g., how the
Thomson model of the atom changed as a result of the Rutherford gold-foil experiment)
Describe the characteristics of neutrons, pro- tons, and electrons, including charge, location, and
relative mass
Distinguish between elements and com- pounds (e.g., compounds are pure substances that can be
broken down into elements by chemical means)
Describe the characteristic physical and chemical properties of common elements and compounds
(e.g., aluminium is a good conductor of heat; copper reacts to moist air by developing a greenish
surface of copper carbonate; sodium carbonate is a white, odourless powder that dissolves in water;
water has unique physical properties that allow it to support life)
Describe patterns in the arrangements of electrons in the first 20 elements of the periodic table,
using the Bohr-Rutherford model
Explain the relationship between the atomic structure of an element and the position of that element
in the periodic table
Compare and contrast the physical properties of elements within a group (e.g., alkali metals) and
between groups (e.g., the carbon group and noble gases) in the periodic table
Identify and use the symbols for common elements (e.g., C, Cl, S, N) and the formulae for common
compounds (e.g., H2O, CO2, NaCl, O2)
