• 

  Chemistry Basics, Identifying an Unknown, Solutions, Solubility, States of Matter, Melting Point, Phase Changes, pH, Strong vs Weak, Observations, Molecular Motion | High School

  Activity: Simulation Activity: Identifying Unknowns with Safety Data Sheets Mark as Favorite (7 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will use a simulation to learn about some of the sections of a safety data sheet (SDS) and how the information on SDSs can be used not only for safety purposes but also for identifying unknowns. Specifically, students will use “Section 9: Physical and Chemical Properties” to distinguish between two or three substances with similar appearances in a variety of lab-based scenarios. Particle diagrams are also included to help students visualize the substances’ behavior on a particulate level.

• 

  pH, Acid Base Reactions, Acid & Base Theories, Strong vs Weak, History | Middle School, High School

  Activity: What are Acids & Bases? Video Questions Mark as Favorite (26 Favorites)

  In this lesson, students will watch a video and answer questions about acids and bases. They will learn about characteristics of acids and bases, the pH scale, and the role of acids in biochemistry.

• 

  Acid & Base Theories, Strong vs Weak, Indicators, Titrations, Buffers, Concentration, Molarity, Net Ionic Equation | High School

  Lesson Plan: Acids and Bases Unit Plan Mark as Favorite (55 Favorites)

  The AACT high school classroom resource library and multimedia collection has everything you need to put together a unit plan for your classroom: lessons, activities, labs, projects, videos, simulations, and animations. We constructed a unit plan using AACT resources that is designed to teach the topic of acids and bases to your students.

• 

  Acid & Base Theories, Strong vs Weak, History | Middle School, High School

  Activity: Acid & Base Guys Video Questions Mark as Favorite (23 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will watch a video about the history of acids and bases. They will learn about the evolution of these theories, from Lavoisier to Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis.

• 

  Salts, Indicators, Strong vs Weak, Net Ionic Equation | High School

  Lab: Hydrolysis of Salts Mark as Favorite (16 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will observe the hydrolysis of several salt samples. They will first predict which solutions are acidic, basic or neutral, and then discover the pH of each through the use of indicators. Students will share and compile their experimental results, as well as have an opportunity to determine the net-ionic equations for each reaction.

• 

  Salts, Equilibrium Constants, Strong vs Weak | High School

  Lesson Plan: Categorizing, Calculating and Applying Concepts from Weak Acids, Weak Bases and Salts Mark as Favorite (53 Favorites)

  In this lesson students will write dissociation reactions to make connections between conjugate acid-base pairs. They will use beaker diagrams in a cooperative group activity to better understand why the pH calculation for a weak acid/base is not the same for a strong acid/base. Finally, students will apply these concepts in a lab in which they will identify several unknown, clear, colorless solutions using factors such as pH, conductivity and reactivity. The activities in this lesson can be used in sequence or as standalone activities.

• 

  Acid & Base Theories, Strong vs Weak, History | Middle School, High School

  Video: Acid & Base Guys Video Mark as Favorite (57 Favorites)

  This video tells the story of how the definition of acids and bases has evolved from Lavoisier, to Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis.

• 

  Titrations, Strong vs Weak, Indicators, pH, Equivalence Point, Acid Base Reactions, Balancing Equations, Graphing | High School

  Lab: Titration Curves Mark as Favorite (20 Favorites)

  In this lab, students graphically observe a plot of micro acid/base titrations and determine the equivalence point of each plotted curve.

• 

  Strong vs Weak, Indicators, Titrations, pH | High School

  Lab: Titration Mark as Favorite (6 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will learn the difference between strong, weak, and concentrated acids by carrying out various titrations.

• 

  Titrations, Indicators, Strong vs Weak, Equivalence Point, pH | High School

  Lab: Meet The Indicators Mark as Favorite (3 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will use their background with titrations to see how different indicators change colors at different pH's.

• 

  Strong vs Weak, Titrations, Acid Base Reactions, Equivalence Point, Indicators, pH, Concentration, Molarity, Measurements | High School

  Lab: Acid Base Reactions Mark as Favorite (6 Favorites)

  In this lab, students will witness a reaction between an acid and base. One will be strong, and the other may be weak or strong--it's up to them to determine.
