Activity procedure 1 Students look at various everyday materials and list some of their properties. 2 They use their understanding of metals to identify which are metals. 3 They link the properties of materials with their use in the home. Running the activity This activity is an introduction to materials. It is important to stress the meaning of the word `property', as students frequently misunderstand this. Students could suggest other properties of the materials in addition to those listed on the sheet. They could test the electrical conductivity of materials. This could assist in the classification of materials as metals. E1 It is not necessary for every group to have a sample of every material. They could be collected and returned from a central point as needed. A series of photographs or pictures showing different materials in a house could be shown. During discussion, students could identify where different materials are used and how their properties make them suitable. Materials required Per group l samples of different materials, such as copper, glass, lead, limestone, perspex, polystyrene, rubber, steel (other materials could be added as available) l gas jar filled with air (as an example of a gaseous material) l large nail Notes on materials preparation The material samples should be labelled with their names. Having collected together suitable materials they should be kept together for future re-use. Answers Answers will depend on the materials provided. Students should identify lead, copper and steel as metals. It is worth noting that lead is dull while most other metals are shiny. 1 C B McDuell, 2002, The Heinemann Science Scheme Which are the elements? Resources available Materials required Core sheet Which are the elements? CD-ROM All resources customisable Links with Book 2 SoW Sc1 E2 8E page 2 2gk Activity procedure 1 Students look at a variety of atomic models of elements and compounds. 2 They pick out the elements as the ones containing only one type of atom. 3 Later the students can be supplied with the colour code for the different elements in the models, so that they can decide which elements are in each. Running the activity A good way of organising this activity is as a circus with groups of students moving from one model to another. This is easier to organise than passing models from one group to another. In Activity E4, students will have an opportunity to make some models. 2 C B McDuell, 2002, The Heinemann Science Scheme E2 Per class l atomic models of a range of elements and compounds, each labelled with a letter A, B, etc, for example: hydrogen, H2 water, H2O carbon dioxide, CO2 ethane, C2H6 diamond graphite sodium chloride sulphur, S8 phosphorus, P4 chlorine, Cl2 Notes on materials preparation It does not matter which model system is used for this activity ± the models supplied to the students will obviously depend upon what is available in the school or college. Suitable systems include Spiring MolymodTM molecular models (www.molymod.com) from Spiring Enterprises Ltd, Billingshurst, W Sussex RH14 9HF. Answers Answers will depend on the models provided. 2 Models allow us to visualise atoms, which are too small to see. Looking at a range of elements Resources available Materials required Book 2 SoW Sc1 Per group l samples of the following solid elements: magnesium ribbon piece of rock sulphur aluminium zinc iron nickel E3 8E page 4 2g±k l samples of the following elements inside sealed sample tubes or test tubes: calcium sodium (a piece the size of a pea under oil) `bromine' (see below) `chlorine' (use an empty tube) iodine (a few crystals) mercury (a tiny globule) l magnet Core sheet Looking at a range of elements CD-ROM All resources customisable Links with Safety l E3 Supply the elements in sealed tubes so that it is obvious to the teacher if any are opened. Students should be told not to open any of these tubes. Note the possibility of explosive mixtures being primed if tubes are tampered with, such as sodium with mercury or sulphur. Activity procedure 1 Students look at samples of different elements. 2 In a suitable table, they record the state and appearance of each element. 3 They test each element with a magnet. 4 They group the elements into solids, liquids and gases and then into metals and nonmetals. Running the activity This activity is intended to give students experience of a range of elements. You can alter the number of elements supplied depending upon the elements available and also the ability of the students. Elements such as silicon and selenium are non-metals but have some metallic characteristics, such as being shiny and silvery in colour. Notes on materials preparation Other elements could be added as available. The elements should be labelled with their names. For `bromine', make up a fake sample using redorange dye in, say, glycerol. It is not necessary for every group to have a sample of every element. The samples could be collected and returned from a central point as needed. Answers Using the elements given: 1 Solids: magnesium, sulphur, aluminium, zinc, iron, nickel, calcium, sodium, iodine Liquids: bromine, mercury Gases: chlorine 2 Metals: magnesium, aluminium, zinc, iron, nickel, calcium, sodium, mercury Non-metals: iodine, sulphur, bromine, chlorine 3 Nickel and iron 3 C B McDuell, 2002, The Heinemann Science Scheme Making models of compounds Resources available Running the activity Core sheet Making models of compounds CD-ROM All resources customisable Links with Book 2 SoW Sc1 E4 8E page 4 2fijm Activity procedure Core 1 Students make models of water and carbon dioxide by looking at pictures of the molecules. 2 They then make a model of ethanol. 3 They answer questions about the model. Extension As an extension to the core sheet, students are asked to make a model of an alcohol containing one carbon atom, and to make any other molecules that they can using the models given to them. This activity is best carried out by students working individually. This enables them to get the feel of working in three dimensions. Making ethanol requires only seven atoms for each student. For the extension, when students are asked to make a model of an alcohol containing one carbon atom, they could be told that the molecular formula of this alcohol is CH4O. Alternatively, they could try to make other molecules using the few atoms they have been given. Methoxymethane, for example, is possible: CH3±O±CH3. Go round and check the models students are producing.

The volumes of gas collected above the anode and cathode are measured. 2 The electrolysis is continued for a further 5 minutes and the volumes again measured. This should be sufficient to establish the idea of two volumes of hydrogen to every one volume of oxygen. 3 Finally a dry test tube is filled with the two gases and a lighted splint put into the test tube. Students should hear a squeaky pop as hydrogen and oxygen combine. Running the activity Students watch as the teacher demonstrates the electrolysis of acidified water. They then answer the questions on the activity sheet. The students should find out that hydrogen is produced at the cathode and oxygen at the anode. This supports the formula of H2O. (Note that although the concept of formula is not covered until Unit F1, it has been introduced on extension sheet E4b.) Notes on materials preparation In the early stages, less oxygen is collected than the 2:1 ratio predicts. This is because oxygen is more soluble in water. The electrolysis should be carried out for 10 minutes before the lesson and the gases allowed to escape. Answers 1 Bubbles form at each electrode. They rise up the tubes above the electrodes. There are more bubbles above the cathode. 2 a Oxygen b Hydrogen More hydrogen is expected to be produced than oxygen. 3 There is a pop as the mixture of gases burns explosively. Hydrogen and oxygen are reacting to form water. 7 C B McDuell, 2002, The Heinemann Science Scheme Two ways of making copper oxide Resources available Sample results Core sheet Two ways of making copper oxide CD-ROM All resources customisable Links with Book 2 SoW Sc1 E6 8E page 6 2f±k, o Safety l Eye protection should be worn. l Students should take the usual care with Bunsen burners. Activity procedure 1 Students make copper oxide by heating copper in air. The oxygen in the air combines with the copper. 2 They make copper oxide by the thermal decomposition of copper carbonate. Carbon dioxide is lost.

Answers 1 Copper`oxygen Copper carbonate copper oxide copper oxide`carbon dioxide 2 There is a small increase when copper is heated in air as oxygen from the air joins to the copper. Copper carbonate decreases in mass when heated because carbon dioxide is lost to the atmosphere. 3 a Magnesium`oxygen magnesium oxide b Increase as oxygen is gained from the atmosphere Looking at materials E1 Core Aim To look at the properties of a variety of common materials.

Introduction The process for splitting water by an electric current is called electrolysis. The products of the process are hydrogen and oxygen. Two volumes of hydrogen are produced for each one volume of oxygen. This justifies the formula H2O for water. The apparatus is called a voltameter. It is filled with water. A little acid is added to the water so it conducts electricity better. The electrodes are made of platinum. One electrode is positive (called the anode) and one is negative (called the cathode). voltameter filled with water ⫺ cathode anode ⫹ switch ⫹ Results 1 Watch as your teacher demonstrates the electrolysis of water. 2 ⫺ battery Copy and complete the results table.

This would involve changing one element into another. a Why would they want to do this? b If it was possible to do this, a lot of gold would be made. What would happen to the price of gold? 1 C B McDuell, 2002, The Heinemann Science Scheme What are elements made from? In 1808, John Dalton produced a list of the elements he knew.

He made an important contribution to explaining what happens when things burn. He heated mercury in a certain volume of air. After the experiment he found some red powder on the surface of the mercury in the retort. The diagrams show his apparatus before and after heating. before heating retort after heating air mercury about 15 th of air lost mercury furnace red mercury oxide on surface Lavoisier carefully removed the red powder. He heated it and collected a colourless gas in which things burned better than in air. 1 a Write down the name of the gas Lavoisier collected. b Use your understanding to explain what was happening during Lavoisier's experiment. c Write a word equation for the reaction taking place when he heated mercury in air. d Write a word equation for the reaction taking place when he heated the red powder. 2 Lavoisier found that: l mercury gained weight when heated in air to form an oxide l the oxide lost weight when it was heated. Until then scientists believed that when a substance burned it lost a substance called phlogiston. Explain why Lavoisier's work meant the end of the previous theory of combustion. 6 C B McDuell, 2002, The Heinemann Science Scheme How many different materials are there?

They are called the noble gases. These are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon. Until about fifty years ago, scientists thought these gases did not react at all under any conditions. In 1962 Neil Bartlett made the first compound of a noble gas. F F It was a yellow-orange solid. Diagram A shows a simplified F Xe Pt view of the atoms in this compound. F This compound contains molecules made up of atoms of F F xenon, platinum and fluorine. diagram A a How many atoms of each element are there in a molecule of this compound? b What is the total number of atoms in one molecule of this compound?

F F F Xe F Xe F F xenon tetrafluoride xenon difluoride diagram B Finding these compounds of xenon changed scientists' ideas about noble gases and they went on to look for other compounds of noble gases. There were still three noble gases that they thought did not form any compounds ± helium, neon and argon. Sometimes the compounds they tried to make were very unstable and split up again. In 2000, scientists in Finland made a compound of argon. This is shown in diagram C.

Here are the combining powers of different elements. Combining power of 1 l sodium l potassium l fluorine l chlorine l bromine l iodine l hydrogen Combining power of 2 l oxygen l sulphur l magnesium l calcium l barium l zinc Combining power of 3 l nitrogen l aluminium Combining power of 4 l carbon These combining powers can be used to write the formula for a compound. Let's look at some ways we can use combining power. Example 1: carbon and chlorine Carbon has a combining power of 4 and chlorine has a combining power of 1. Each carbon will combine with 4 chlorines. The formula is CCl4. Example 2: aluminium and sulphur Aluminium has a combining power of 3 and sulphur has a combining power of 2. So the formula of aluminium sulphide is Al2S3. Two aluminium atoms provide 6 links and three sulphurs provide 6 links.
