4. Empirical Formulas
...orrect formulas, indicate why they are correct, and go through the wrong ones and correct them. Tell students that these are ionic formulas and they are always written in their empirical formula. 5. Pass out ions of carbon with its electron dots and hydrogen with its electron dots. Explain that the organic compounds are not like the inorganic compounds, some of them have two formulas. 6. Have the students make formulas of some of the alkanes. 7. Get the formulas and place them on the board. 8. Go through each formula for correctness and get the empirical formulas. 9. After the students are sure that they fully...

5. Biomolecules introduction
...hydrate and give one example. Anticipatory Set: After their exams, the students quietly do a worksheet which will refresh their knowledge of chemistry and the periodic table. The Lesson: Talk about the main points from 1. the worksheet and review important chemistry basics. Guided Practice Describe organic and inorganic compounds. In groups, have students come up with several examples of organic and inorganic compounds. Discuss with 2. class how carbon enters the food chain (photosynthesis) and why life is based on carbon. Then let different groups share their results with the class. Independent Practice with A...

7. Semantic Maps in Biochemistry
...nd _ Semantic Maps in Biochemistry _ _ Learning Context/ Introduction: This learning experience helps students to create connections with their prior knowledge. Students can utilize technology in order to help them learn the material covered in class. Students have learned the four major classes of organic compounds. Previously at the end of each section of a particular class of compounds, students have created a hand written semantic map. This map allows students to show similarities and differences among these compounds. This learning experience is a culminating activity on biochemistry. Students will create...

...to illustrate how VOCs and NOx combine to form ground level ozone Materials large sheets of paper sets of Post-it tabs, 30 red, 30 blue, 20 yellow copies of Student Worksheet, pdf copies of vocabulary list, pdf sun graphic Background Atoms are always moving around, bumping into each other combining compounds, breaking apart and forming others. The bonding of some compounds is stronger than others. Take for instance, a glass of water. On a molecular level, at any given time, the majority of Oxygen and Hydrogen atoms in the liquid are combining to form HO. However because the atoms are always on the move there ar...
