Classroom Resources: Organic Chemistry

26 – 32 of 32 Classroom Resources

• 

  Pharmaceuticals, Molecular Structure | High School

  Project: Organic Chemistry

  In this research project, students will demonstrate their knowledge of stereochemistry and present its role in well-known pharmaceutical compounds.

• 

  History, Periodic Table, Molecular Structure, Molecular Structure , Molecular Geometry | Elementary School, Middle School, High School

  Video: Phosphorous Video

  In this video, Sam Kean tells the story of how phosphorus was at the center of the race to discover the structure of DNA.

• 

  Polymers, Molecular Structure, Polymers, Chemical Change, Molecular Structure , Chemical Bond, Monomer, Monomer | Middle School

  Lesson Plan: The Power of Polymers

  In this lesson students will use lab activities and discussion to explore polymers and their use in 3D printing, with an emphasis on the benefits of 3D printing in automotive manufacturing.

• 

  Separating Mixtures, Physical Properties, Melting Point, Intermolecular Forces, Phase Changes, Isomers, Distillation, Molecular Structure, Intermolecular Forces, Molecular Structure , Boiling Point, Molecular Geometry, Isomers | High School

  Lesson Plan: Structural Isomers

  In this activity, students will use models to explore structural isomers, and create explanations for the impact of structure on intermolecular forces (London dispersion) and physical properties (boiling point).

• 

  Renewable Energy, Balancing Equations, Conservation of Mass, Chemical Change, Molecular Structure , Functional Groups | High School

  Lab: Soap or Fuel?

  In this lab, students will transform vegetable oil into a soft soap and into biodiesel fuel. The two reactions emphasize that the products of a chemical reaction are under the control of the chemist. By noting the relationship of the reaction product to the reactants, students will gain a deeper understanding of the law of conservation of matter.

• 

  Molecular Formula, Molecular Structure, Molecular Structure , Functional Groups, Oxidation, Saturated vs. Unsaturated | High School

  Lesson Plan: Chocolate: The New Health Food

  Explore emergency lesson plans from ChemMatters magazine.

• 

  Renewable Energy, Chemical Change, Interdisciplinary, Distillation, Molecular Structure, Combustion, Stoichiometry, Chemical Change, Molecular Structure , Enthalpy | High School

  Lesson Plan: Biofuels of the Future

  In this lesson students will explore the world of automobile alternative energy sources through the study of biofuels. They will design and create an e-book that illustrates and explains one of the provided topics or an original idea approved by the teacher.
