Hydroxide solid reactions and discussion section of molecular and net ionic equations.

Grade: 10
Content: Chemistry – Hydroxide solid reactions and discussion section of molecular and net ionic equations.
Standards –
12.C.5a Analyze reactions (e.g., nuclear reactions, burning of fuel, decomposition of waste) in natural and man-made energy
systems.
12.C.5b Analyze the properties of materials (e.g., mass, boiling point, melting point, hardness) in relation to their physical
and/or chemical structures.
Agenda –
5 – min – challenge to predict five solid forming hydroxide reactions using page 178
10 – min – challenge to balance and right the net ionic equations for those reactions
30 min – student centered discussion section addressing the questions that students’ have related to
this material
OBJECTIVE.
Defining Success

Students will be able to predict the formation of five hydroxide containing solids and they will further
questions about reactions involving the formation of solids and gases based upon solubility rules.

Lesson Cycle

lesson’s objective?
I will have 11 beakers in the front of the room on the main desk, 10 empty and
one filled with NaOH. I will tell the students that they have 5 minutes to tell me
(using page 178 of the text) which of the following dissolved ionic compounds Chemistry Text books, page
will form solids when combined with NaOH (aqueous): Sodium chloride, 178
potassium sulfate, sodium carbonate, silver Nitrate, calcium chloride, nickel (II) Solutions of Sodium chloride,
chloride, sodium nitrate, Potassium chromate, strontium chloride, barium potassium sulfate, sodium
chloride, lead (II) nitrate, Ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate,copper (II) carbonate, silver Nitrate, calcium

INTRODUCTION OF NEW MATERIAL. How will you convey the chromate, strontium chloride,
knowledge and/or skills of the lesson? What will your students be barium chloride, lead (II) nitrate,
doing to process this information? Ammonium nitrate, potassium
This is a review session, however those students that do not nitrate,copper (II) chloride, and
currently understand using the solubility rules will be forced to sodium hydroxide.
exercise the use of them by focusing on understanding that
hydroxide salts are insoluble except for Na, K, Ca, and Ba.
GUIDED PRACTICE. In what ways will your learners attempt to
explain or do what you have outlined? How will you monitor and
coach their performance?
They will have to show the precipitation reaction of the five
reactions that they come up with, and the net ionic equations for
them.
INDEPENDENT PRACTICE. In what ways will your different learners
attempt the objective on their own? How will you gauge mastery?
The students will have the option to be independent or work with
their partners at their stations for this activity.
 CLOSING. How will you have students summarize what they’ve
learned? How will reinforce the objective’s importance and its link to
past and future learning?

We will summarize what we have learned by a subsequent

discussion section afterward that is student-centered, and addresses
their particular questions that they have about molecular equations
and net ionic equations.

DIFFERENTIATION: How will you differentiate your instruction to reach the diversity of
learners in your classroom?
This activity is going to provide the students with independent or collaborative learning, the
ability to use pg 178’s solubility rules diagram, verbal and written communication,
