1 ) Obtain and communicate information from historical experiments (e.g., work
by Mendeleev and Moseley, Rutherford's gold foil experiment, Thomson's cathode
ray experiment, Millikan's oil drop experiment, Bohr's interpretation of bright
line spectra) to determine the structure and function of an atom and to analyze
the patterns represented in the periodic table. NAEP Framework

2 ) Develop and use models of atomic nuclei to explain why the abundance-weighted average of isotopes of an element yields the published atomic mass. NAEP Framework

3 ) Use the periodic table as a systematic representation to predict properties
of elements based on their valence electron arrangement. a. Analyze data such as physical properties to explain periodic trends of
the elements, including metal/nonmetal/metalloid behavior, electrical/heat
conductivity, electronegativity and electron affinity, ionization energy, and
atomic-covalent/ionic radii, and how they relate to position in the periodic
table. b. Develop and use models (e.g., Lewis dot, 3-D ball-and-stick, space-filling, valence-shell electron-pair repulsion [VSEPR]) to predict the type of bonding and shape of simple compounds. c. Use the periodic table as a model to derive formulas and names of ionic
and covalent compounds. NAEP Framework

4 ) Plan and conduct an investigation to classify properties of matter as
intensive (e.g., density, viscosity, specific heat, melting point, boiling
point) or extensive (e.g., mass, volume, heat) and demonstrate how intensive
properties can be used to identify a compound. |

5 ) Plan and conduct investigations to demonstrate different types of simple
chemical reactions based on valence electron arrangements of the reactants and
determine the quantity of products and reactants. a. Use mathematics and computational thinking to represent the ratio of
reactants and products in terms of masses, molecules, and moles. b. Use mathematics and computational thinking to support the claim that
atoms, and therefore mass, are conserved during a chemical reaction. NAEP Framework

6 ) Use mathematics and computational thinking to express the concentrations
of solutions quantitatively using molarity. a. Develop and use models to explain how solutes are dissolved in solvents. b. Analyze and interpret data to explain effects of temperature on the
solubility of solid, liquid, and gaseous solutes in a solvent and the effects of
pressure on the solubility of gaseous solutes. c. Design and conduct experiments to test the conductivity of common ionic
and covalent substances in a solution. d. Use the concept of pH as a model to predict the relative properties of
strong, weak, concentrated, and dilute acids and bases (e.g., Arrhenius and
Brønsted-Lowry acids and bases). NAEP Framework

7 ) Plan and carry out investigations to explain the behavior of ideal gases in
terms of pressure, volume, temperature, and number of particles. a. Use mathematics to describe the relationships among pressure,
temperature, and volume of an enclosed gas when only the amount of gas is
constant. b. Use mathematical and computational thinking based on the ideal gas law to determine molar quantities. |

8 ) Refine the design of a given chemical system to illustrate how
LeChâtelier's principle affects a dynamic chemical equilibrium when
subjected to an outside stress (e.g., heating and cooling a saturated sugar-
water solution).* |

9 ) Analyze and interpret data (e.g., melting point, boiling point, solubility,
phase-change diagrams) to compare the strength of intermolecular forces and how
these forces affect physical properties and changes. NAEP Framework

10 ) Plan and conduct experiments that demonstrate how changes in a system (e.g.,
phase changes, pressure of a gas) validate the kinetic molecular theory. a. Develop a model to explain the relationship between the average kinetic
energy of the particles in a substance and the temperature of the substance
(e.g., no kinetic energy equaling absolute zero [0K or -273.15oC]). NAEP Framework
|
||||||||||||||
|
11 ) Construct an explanation that describes how the release or absorption of
energy from a system depends upon changes in the components of the system. a. Develop a model to illustrate how the changes in total bond energy
determine whether a chemical reaction is endothermic or exothermic. b. Plan and conduct an investigation that demonstrates the transfer of
thermal energy in a closed system (e.g., using heat capacities of two components
of differing temperatures). NAEP Framework
