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.

Due:
Different chemical reactions proceed at different speeds. For example, the rusting of iron may take many years while the burning of methane gas is nearly instantaneous. The rate of reaction is the speed at which reactants are converted into products. If a reaction proceeds quickly, it has a high rate of reaction. If a reaction proceeds slowly, it has a low rate of reaction. The rate of reaction depends on a number of variables, such as the concentration of reactants and the temperature. Collision theory is a scientific concept that gives a qualitative explanation of chemical reactions and their reaction rates.
Due:
Organize experimental evidence into graphs to interpret how changing environmental conditions impact vulnerable species.

Once you have your set of hexagons, it’s time for your group to begin making connections between them. Your conversations now will be about showing how and why you think the different ideas and options connect. Everyone will see things differently, and that’s OK. Just keep talking until you find the connections that stick. As you discuss your ideas, use our guided notes to find supporting evidence for why you think your connections are strong ones.
Each hexagon can connect to up to six others. Arrange and rearrange until you feel you have the strongest hexagon web in place that you can. Then begin explaining your connections with connection arrows, writing in why you have created intersections between key hexagons.

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.

Heat is an important part of our everyday lives, influencing the temperature of our systems and surroundings. In this lab, we will dive into how heat is transferred from one place to another, specifically focusing on three primary modes: conduction, convection, and radiation.
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.
