Write up the carbon dioxide lab that we did today.  You may hand in your lab in pairs or threes
THIS LAB IS OUT OF 60 MARKS

1.  Title of Lab:  Make up your own title of this lab     2 marks
2.  Collaborators:  Write the full names of the investigators and write down what percentage of the write up was done by them     3 marks

3.  Purpose of lab:  Write a short paragraph describing your purpose:  5 marks
4.   Materials:  Write a list of materials that you used for your experiment      5 marks
5.   Procedure:  Write a step by step procedure describing our three out of experiments:

a. Observing at a coin with dry ice under a microscope
b. Put a piece of dry ice in cold water , then in hot water
c.  DEMO: Put some NaOH in a flask, add universal indicator.  observe the colour.  Now add a piece of dry ice.  What happens
d.  move the dry ice around like it was a hockey puck.  Why does it slide across the table?


Write a step by step clear procedure that is easy to understand.  Also, make a cartoon of your procedure:  out of 20
17-20/20    excellent, clear writing and pictures
13-16/20    very good procedure with pictures
10/20          procedure is written 
0-9/20          procedure is hard to understand

Observations and Discussion   /20

For each experiment, write and draw or provide photographs for your observations.  Beside your drawings or photos, EXPLAIN how this happened.  Use balanced equations
out of 20
17-20/20      you have a keen eye for detail in observations and you write your observations well: your pictures are very clear.  You understand why the phenomena happened and you explain it clearly. You show exceptional insight. 
13-16/20      very good write up.  You summarize your observations and your explanations are clear.  You clearly reflected on this.

0-11/20   you need to spend a bit more time describing the phenomena and also explaining it

Naming acids practice

Today we reviewed naming acids and I asked you to write  "...ide" acids and    "...ite " acids and also    "...ate" acids. also you did an exercise in naming acids last block.  Now you can do the naming acids practice on page 18 in the Chemistry practice sheet Here is the Chemistry practice sheet key.

Do the Chemistry Practice Sheet

A really useful Chemistry practice sheet Here is the Chemistry practice sheet key.  Note there is another quiz next period.  Start the class with a round of the Compound card game  located in the bucket under the windows (5-10 minutes).  Next do the chem practice sheet.

Use the periodic table and work on practice sheets

1.  Play the compound game with a partner for 5-10 minutes as a warm up.
2.  Review the charges of elements on the periodic table and work on the worksheets provided in class.  The worksheets may be found on the side of the class

Unit on Safety. Create a Safety poster and hand it in before class ends

Now we are doing a unit on safety. Please do the reading, the homework and MAKE A POSTER SHOWING ALL THE RULES. SUMMARIZE ALL THE RULES IN 4 OR 5 STATEMENTS
1.    




































                                                    WHMIS -  WORKPLACE HAZARDOUS 

                         MATERIALS INFORMATION
                         SYSTEM 

      THESE symbols are on the MSDS sheet for
       all chemicals    Materials safety Data Sheet. 

Follow teacher instructions
a.     If you wish to change instructions, check with teacher
b.     If you break anything or get hurt, report it REPORT ACCIDENTS

2.     No horseplay, fooling around
3.     Keep yourself safe

b.     If chemicals get on skin, use water
c.     Use eyewash if anything gets in eyes
d.     Wear goggles if needed
e.  If you wear contacts, inform the teacher

4.      Keep your area safe
a.     your work area is neat and organized

c.     aware of fire safety and chemical safety

5.     Keep the classroom safe
a.     Carry materials in a safe way
b.     Aware of fire safety procedure
c.     Don’t remove any experiments from the classroom
d.     Don’t do experiments without first checking with teacher.


6.      Hot and cold and chemical safety
a.     never assume the temperature of something.  Take precautions
b.     hot beaker and cold beaker look identical
c.     always point a test tube away from everyone

d.     when smelling a chemical, waft.


You will create safety rules by reading and summarizing the safety procedures in your text.  Then you will take the Finn Laboratory Saftey Test

The rules can be under the following categories:
HIGHEST PRIORITIES:

THESE RULES CAN BE SUMMED UP LIKE THIS
Talk to the instructor                     

KEEP ORGANIZED AND SAFE
Keep the classroom safe
Keeping your work area safe
Keep safe with your colleagues
Keep yourself safe
KNOW THE SYMBOLS
Know the correct symbols, WHIMIS symbols


COMMUNICATE AND REACT TO AN EMERGENCY
       Emergency procedures for fire, toxins, spills, and evacuation  


SAFETY ASSIGNMENT:  I divided you into groups and talked about WHMIS.  Make a poster of the 20 safety rules which I handed out in class. 
Your group must draw a comic showing all the safety rules on one side of the page. put numbers to show where the rule is being applied.   

RUBRIK:  out of 10
YOUR POSTER IS COMPLETE SHOWING ALL 20 RULES      5 marks
   it is missing a few of the rules   2-4 marks

the poster is neat and organized and easy to read    3 marks

the poster is remarkably artistic and creative and is different in some way   2 marks
    the poster is very well done and artistic 1.5 marks
