Lesson 2: Property Changes in Chemical Reactions
Duration of Days: 6
Lesson Objective
Students will explore how substances react chemically in characteristic ways. They will develop and use models to show how the atoms that make up the original substances are regrouped into different molecules and how the total number of each type of atom is conserved, which explains the conversation of matter.
How do atoms rearrange to form new substances in a chemical reaction?
