Matter and its Interactions

  • HS-PS1-1.

    Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms.HS-PS1-1

  • HS-PS1-2.

    Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.HS-PS1-2

  • HS-PS1-3.

    Plan and conduct an investigation to gather evidence to compare the structure of substances at the bulk scale to infer the strength of electrical forces between particles.HS-PS1-3

  • HS-PS1-4.

    Develop a model to illustrate that the release or absorption of energy from a chemical reaction system depends upon the changes in total bond energy.HS-PS1-4

  • HS-PS1-5.

    Apply scientific principles and evidence to provide an explanation about the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs.HS-PS1-5

  • HS-PS1-6.

    Refine the design of a chemical system by specifying a change in conditions that would produce increased amounts of products at equilibrium.HS-PS1-6

  • HS-PS1-7.

    Use mathematical representations to support the claim that atoms, and therefore mass, are conserved during a chemical reaction.HS-PS1-7

  • HS-PS1-8.

    Develop models to illustrate the changes in the composition of the nucleus of the atom and the energy released during the processes of fission, fusion, and radioactive decay.HS-PS1-8

  • HS-PS1-9.

    Use mathematical representations to describe the composition and properties of individual solutions and solutions involved in chemical reactions.HS-PS1-9

  • HS-PS1-10.

    Analyze data to support the claim that the combined gas law describes the relationships among volume, pressure and temperature for a sample of an ideal gas.HS-PS1-10

Energy

  • HS-PS3-1.

    Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known.HS-PS3-1

  • HS-PS3-2.

    Develop and use models to illustrate that energy at the macroscopic scale can be accounted for as a combination of energy associated with the motions of particles (objects) and energy associated with the relative positions of particles (objects).HS-PS3-2

  • HS-PS3-3.

    Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence that the transfer of thermal energy when two components of different temperature are combined within a closed system results in a more uniform energy distribution among the components in the system (second law of thermodynamics).HS-PS3-3
