24. [Handout] Investigation: Engineering Chemical Reactions in Google Classroom

24. [Handout] Investigation: Engineering Chemical Reactions

Objective:    
Describe factors that change the Rate of a Reaction
Explain the effects of changing conditions on a reaction at the particle level
Introduction: Chemical reactions are influenced by the conditions of their environment. These components are oftentimes vital to controlling the delicate balance of many existing systems on planet earth. As many ecosystems face challenges such as rising temperatures, acidification, and alternations of nutrient availability, it is important to investigate and identify the driving forces of these changes so that necessary modifications can be made. We have already seen how the ocean is changing and how it is affecting aquatic life such as coral reefs.  In this investigation a chemical reaction will be used as a model to measure how changing conditions can be used to identify drastic shifts occurring in the health of an environmental ecosystem such as the ocean and the many species that live in them.

18. [Handout] Analysis: Maintaining Home Temperature in Google Classroom

18. [Handout] Analysis: Maintaining Home Temperature

Objective: Using evidence collected from an investigation - create a mathematical model to show the changes in thermal energy of different materials to identify characteristics useful in maintaining the temperature in our homes. 

Purpose: Keeping your house at a comfortable temperature involves managing the way heat moves around. To do this, we use materials that can either help heat flow easily or stop it from escaping. These materials have different jobs when we're building our houses. When we turn on a heater, we use gas or electricity to change the indoor temperature. The longer these devices run, the more we pay for energy. 

Instructions: Complete the tasks of each part of the analysis using data from your investigation.

10. [Reflection] Heat Transfer Stations in Google Classroom

10. [Reflection] Heat Transfer Stations

Heat transfer is the exchange of thermal energy between objects or substances that have different temperatures. Conduction involves the direct transfer of heat through a material without the movement of the material itself. Convection, on the other hand, is the process where heat is transported through the movement of fluids (liquids or gasses). Lastly, radiation is the emission of electromagnetic waves, typically in the form of infrared radiation.

Instructions: Organize your thoughts into complete sentences. Write a reflection using the questions below. You may use as much space as you need.
