Science Curriculum Standards 3221 - Chemistry I	Internet Resources
Determine the type of chemical bond that occurs in a chemical compound. 3.1	Types of Bonds - Explores how different types of bonds are formed due to variations in the electronegativity of the bonded atoms. The distortion of the orbitals (not calculated, just approximated), and the polarity of the bond is also displayed Writing Ionic Compound Formulas - from ChemTutor
Differentiate between ionic and covalent bond models. 3.2
Identify the chemical formulas of common chemical compounds. 3.3
Employ a table of polyvalent cations and polyatomic ions to name and describe the chemical formula of ionic compounds. 3.4
Convert percent composition information into the empirical or molecular formula of a compound. 3.5
Apply information about the molar mass, number of moles, and molar volume to the number of particles of the substance. 3.6
Balance an equation for a chemical reaction. 3.7	Balancing Chemical Equations - instruction, examples and sample problems [This page comes from the Internet Archive known as the Wayback Machine.] Chembalancer - a little online game to teach balancing equations - You type numbers in front of each molecule until there are the same number of atoms on both sides of the equation, then click the 'Balanced' button. Chemical Equation - explanation and graphic illustration Balancing Chemical Equations - a 17 slide PowerPoint show How can I tell if an equation is balanced correctly? - a list of requirements which must be met
Classify a chemical reaction as composition, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, and combustion. 3.8
Use activity series or solubility product table information to predict the products of a chemical reaction. 3.9
Predict the products of a neutralization reaction involving inorganic acids and bases. 3.10
Interpret a chemical equation to determine molar ratios. 3.11
Convert between the following quantities of a substance: mass, number of moles, number of particles, and molar volume at STP. 3.12
Solve different types of stoichiometry problems (e.g., volume at STP to mass, moles to mass, molarity). 3.13	Complex Stoichiometric Calculations - suggestions to help with SAT II Chemistry exam
Determine the amount of expected product in an experiment and calculate percent yield. 3.14
Calculate the amount of heat lost or gained by a substance based on its mass, change in temperature, and specific heat during physical and chemical processes. 3.15
Research applications of thermal changes in nuclear reactions. 3.16
Identify a substance as an acid or base according to its formula. 3.17
