General Resources:
Benchmark Specific Resources:
I can …
1. Identify the products and reactants in a chemical equation.
2. Determine if a chemical equation is balanced
3. Balance a chemical equation. (performance)
4. Apply simple stoichiometry to a balanced chemical reaction at the particle level.
5. Apply the Law of Conservation of Mass to determine the mass of a product or reactant.
6. Understand that chemical reactions occur at the molecular level when bonds between atoms in the molecules are broken or formed.
7. Recognize that the coefficients in chemical equations represent the number of molecules or formula units involved in a reaction.
8. Recognize that atoms and grams are conserved in a balanced chemical equation, but molecules are not conserved.
9. Classify chemical reactions as one of five types (1. Combination reactions, 2. Decomposition reactions, 3, Single replacement reactions, and 4. Double replacement reactions, 5 Combustion reactions).
10. Predict whether a reaction will occur and the products of a reaction when given the reactants. (Single displacement, Double displacement, Combustion, and simple Decomposition and Combination reactions)
11. Predict the formation of precipitates when given a solubility chart.
