TIC TAC TOE LEARNER ACTIVITIES

CHEMICAL REACTIONS

Each student is responsible for completing 3 activities from the following choices. Your activities must be three in a row horizontally, vertically or diagonally.

TICTACTOE

Draw a picture that shows the function and chemistry behind catalytic converters or any other industrial reaction that requires a catalyst. Explain what a catalyst does during the reaction / Song or Rap
Write a song or rap about rates of chemical reactions, Include the terms endothermic and exothermic. Song/Rap must be written out neatly on paper. Be prepared to present. Must be 2 verses and 1 chorus. / Develop a five minutevideo about rates of reactions. Should include 5 different ways that affect the rate of reactions
Design an experiment
(thermochemistry lab)
which focuses on an endothermic and exothermic reaction. You will submit a typed, one page lab report for each. Include all steps of the scientific method and report your conclusion. / FREE CHOICE
Teacher approved
Ex: 20 words in window pane / Develop a power point about the pH scale. Should be at least 10 slides in length. Include the importance of acids(acidic)and bases (alkaline) Include hydroxide and hydrogen ions.
pH Scale
Research and draw out a diagram of the pH scale. Be sure to include at least one example and illustration for each number on the scale. Explain the terms acidic and alkaline in terms of your pH scale. Explain the difference between hydroxide and hydrogen ion. / Design a 25 question
quiz about chemical reactions. Should include an answer key.
Questions should include chemical reaction types, rates of reaction, pH scale etc…. / Create a comic strip about 4 major types of chemical reactions. Be sure your comic strip conveys your understanding of the different types of chemical reactions. Be sure you color your comic strip.
