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 of atoms.HS-PS1-1

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

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

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

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

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

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

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
