Give an example of something with a pH of 1, something with a pH of 14 and something with a pH of 7.What is an acid?What is a base?What is conductivity and what is the scale that we measure it with?What is an indicator? Give examples.What is the difference between a crystal and powder?What is chromatography?What is a polymer?What is density?What makes something magnetic?What does solubility mean?Define the followingionic bond (and example)covalent bond (and example)mixture (and example) solutions (and example) compounds (and example)physical change (and example) chemical change (and example) What are the signs of a chemical change?What are environmental toxins?How can iron, arsenic, and lead be found in nature/house holdsHow do these interact with the body to be considered toxic?What are common signs of poisoning?understand how toseparate components of a mixturebalance a simple chemical equation use a map to analyze the potential patterns of spread of toxic spills in the environment via water, wind, or gravity;perform a chromatography separationperform serial dilutionsdetermination of pH; determine conductivity of a liquidobserve changes in temperature, color, production of a gas or a precipitate after reagents have been mixed together by either themselves or the supervisor; calculate the rate of a chemical reaction or other parameters;identify if a particular change is a physical or chemical change.for the following chemicals make a blank data table with the following rows for all these. The headings for each column will be chemical name, chemical formula, physical description (color, smell, state of matter), pH, conductivity, magnetic attraction, toxic effects, signs of poisoning, possible “cures”, effect of dilution on toxicity, other ammonia, hydrogen peroxide, rubbing alcohol, bleach, Epsom salts, vinegar, nutritional supplements containing calcium and iron.For the following poisonous plants and animals make a blank table with the following rows for all of these. The headings for each column will be common name, Latin name, picture, toxic effects, possible “cures” the effect of dilution on toxicity, otherPoison Ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), Poison Oak (Toxicodendron diversilobum), Death-cap mushroom (Amanita phalloides), Jimson weed (Datura sp), Mayapple (Podophyllum peltatum), Ongaonga (Urtica ferox), Cane toad (Rhinella marina), Pacific newt (Taricha sp), Brown recluse spider (Loxosceles recluse), and Fattail scorpion (Androctonus australis).SAMPLE EXAM QUESTIONS/ACTIVITIES:What hazardous chemical may be produced if you mix household bleach and ammonia?What are the major sources of lead which cause lead poisoning?What should you do if you find a Jimson weed plant? Why is it dangerous?You stir together sand and salt. Is this a mixture, a solution, or a compound? How might you separate the salt and sand again? ................
