Titration Knowledge:
Students know:
An acid may be strong or weak, depending on its reaction with water to produce ions.
When an acid dissolves in water, a proton (hydrogen ion) is transferred to a water molecule and produces a hydronium ion.
A base may be strong or weak, depending on the number of hydroxide ions readily produced in solution. Skills:
Students are able to:
Recognize common inorganic acids including hydrochloric (muriatic) acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, nitric acid and citric acid.
Recognize common bases including sodium bicarbonate, and hydroxides of sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, barium and ammonium.
Use the pH scale to measure acidity or basicity. Understanding:
Students understand that:
Acids are compounds that contain hydrogen and can dissolve in water to release hydrogen ions in solution.
Bases are substances that dissolve in water to release hydroxide ions (OH-) into solution.
The neutralization of an acid with a base produces water and a salt. AMSTI Resources:

Science 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).

properties Knowledge:
Students know:
The mole is used to convert between the atomic/ molecular and macroscopic levels.
Concentrations of solutions can be compared quantitatively using molarity.
Mathematical representations may include calculations, graphs or other pictorial depictions of quantitative information.
Solutions are a type of mixture that appears homogeneous at the macroscopic level but may be heterogeneous at the atomic/ molecular level.
Solutes are the portion of a solution present in the lesser amount.
Solvents are the portion of a solution present in the greater amount.
Both temperature and pressure affect the solubility of solutes.
The effect of temperature on the solubility of a liquid or solid solute differs from that of gaseous solutes.
The effect of pressure on the solubility of gaseous solutes differs from that of liquid or solid solutes.
The ability of a substance to conduct electricity is determined by the presence of charged particles that are able to move about freely.
Ionic compounds typically conduct electricity when melted or dissolved in water because the charged particles are able to move about freely.
Covalent compounds typically do not conduct electricty when melted or dissolved in water because there are no charged particles.
Exceptions to the typical conductivity of solutions include strong acids, which ionize in water solutions.
An acid has more hydronium ions than hydroxide ions.
A base has more hydroxide ions than hydronium ions.
pH is a measure of the number of hydronium ions present in a solution. Skills:

Data can be analyzed using tools, technologies, and/ or models (e.g., computational, mathematical) in order to make valid and reliable scientific claims.
Different patterns may be observed at each of the scales at which a system is studied and ca provide evidence for causality in explanations of phenomena.
The properties of matter at the macroscopic level are determined by the interaction of particles at the atomic/ molecular level.
Empirical evidence is required to differentiate between cause and correlation and make claims about specific causes and effects.
Scientists plan and conduct an investigation individually and collaboratively to produce data to serve as the basis for evidence, and in the design decide on types, how much, and accuracy of data needed to produce reliable measurements.
