Matter and its Interactions

  • 1

    Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level and the composition of the nucleus of atoms.HS-PS1-1

  • 2

    Construct and revise an explanation for the outcome of a simple chemical reaction based on the outermost electron states of atoms, trends in the periodic table, and knowledge of the patterns of chemical properties.HS-PS1-2

  • 3

    Plan and conduct an investigation to gather evidence to compare the structure of substances at the macroscale to infer the strength of electrical forces between particles. HS-PS1-3

  • 4

    Develop a model to illustrate that the release or absorption of energy from a chemical reaction system depends upon the changes in total bond energy.HS-PS1-4

  • 5

    Apply scientific principles and evidence to provide an explanation about the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs.HS-PS1-5

  • 6

    Refine the design of a chemical system by specifying a change in conditions that would produce increased amounts of products at equilibrium.HS-PS1-6

  • 7

    Use mathematical representations to support the claim that atoms, and therefore mass, are conserved during a chemical reaction.HS-PS1-7

  • 8

    Develop models to illustrate the changes in the composition of the nucleus of the atom and the energy released during the processes of fission, fusion, and radioactive decay. HS-PS1-8

Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions

  • 6

    Communicate scientific and technical information about why the atomic-level, subatomic-level, and/or molecular level structure is important in the functioning of designed materials.HS-PS2-6

Energy

  • 1

    Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known.HS-PS3-1

  • 3

    Design, build, and refine a device that works within given constraints to convert one form of energy into another form of energy.HS-PS3-3

  • 4

    Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence that the transfer of thermal energy when two components of different temperature are combined within a closed system results in a more uniform energy distribution among the components in the system (second law of thermodynamics).HS-PS3-4

  • 6

    Evaluate the validity and reliability of claims in published materials about the viability of nuclear power as a source of alternative energy relative to other forms of energy (e.g., fossil fuels, wind, solar, geothermal).HS-PS3-6
