Classroom Resources: Molecules & Bonding

1 – 4 of 4 Classroom Resources

• 

  Polyatomic Ions, Naming Compounds, Molecular Formula, Ionic Bonding | High School, Middle School

  Lesson Plan: What's in a Name? What's in a Glaze?

  In this lesson students will learn about some of the chemical compounds involved in the art of pottery by practicing naming and writing formulas for ionic compounds commonly found in components of glazes for ceramics.

• 

  Naming Compounds, Ionic Bonding, Lewis Structures | High School, Middle School

  Activity: Ionic Bonding Puzzle

  In this activity, students match puzzle pieces to create neutral ionic compounds. Once they have made a neutral ionic compound they can use electron dot diagrams to show the formation of the compounds. Finally they will name the ionic compounds.

• 

  Naming Compounds, Introduction, Interdisciplinary, Molecular Formula, Molecular Structure, Molecular Structure , Chemical Bond | High School, Middle School

  Activity: Modeling Carbohydrates

  In this activity, students will identify that organic compounds contain carbon and other elements such as hydrogen and oxygen. They will investigate the structure of different organic and inorganic compounds and model several molecules, including a carbohydrate molecule. They will use their models to help understand how larger molecules are broken down into smaller molecules.

• 

  Naming Compounds, Molecular Formula, Precipitate, Ionic Bonding, Ions | Middle School

  Activity: Bond with a Classmate

  In this activity, students are assigned an ion and form bonds with their classmates, recording the formula and name of the compound they created.
