SCH3U Summative Task ROUGH DRAFT DUE: Friday May 22, 2015 FINAL COPY DUE: Friday, May 29, 2015

SCH3U Summative Task Spring 2015

ROUGH DRAFT DUE: Friday May 22, 2015 FINAL COPY DUE: Friday, May 29, 2015

May be completed in pairs or alone.

Overall Expectation – To create a visual presentation (poster, power point, booklet, mobile, video, t-shirt, game, 3D model etc.) of your learning in chemistry this semester with regards to an ionic salt.

Your task will cover the following expectations:

1.  B1 Analyze the properties of a commonly used ionic salt and its effects on human health and the environment and propose ways to lessen its impact.

2.  C2 Analyze a chemical reaction your salt is associated with and assess its impact on society and the environment.

3.  D1 Analyze processes in the home, the workplace, and the environmental sector that use the salt with regards to chemical quantities and calculations.

4.  F1 Analyze the effects of this salt on water pollution and on air quality and economic, social and environmental issues.

The MAIN FOCUS of the project is to consider:

1.  Industrial uses of your compound. (Try to include at least three examples)

-how is the salt used in industry, reactions, products, waste management, cost

2. Common uses –if any (Try to include at least three examples i.e. home, school work products)

-how is the salt used in the home, workplace school; reactions, products, waste management, cost

3. Toxicity: does the compound have an effect on the environment (i.e. water and air pollution) and thus have a negative effect on human health?
