If you have seen some of my previous webinars*, you probably have heard me mention that I use interactive notebooks in my chemistry I classes. Today, I’m going to share the first of many units: stoichiometry. Keep an eye out because gas laws and thermochemistry will be coming very soon!
A case study is a guided inquiry activity that embeds problem-solving within a simulated real-world context. Case studies tend to be more challenging than traditional word problems because they are presented in a longer form, commonly as a story.
OBJECTIVE: To use the principles of stoichiometry to determine the theoretical yield of a simple reaction, measure the actual yield, and calculate the percent yield.
