UNIT 23: Chemical bonding (5 days)
Date Range: 5/4/15-5/8/15
Topic, Assignments, Agenda, Board Configurations
Homeroom:
Announcements
UNIT:
Chemical
Bonding
Essential Question:
 What role do electrons play in the bonding of elements?
 How do you determine the type of chemical bond that forms?
 What does a chemical formula tell you?
Standard/Benchmarks
SC.8.P.8.5#: Recognize that there are a finite number
of elements and that their atoms combine in a
multitude of ways to produce compounds that make
up all of the living and nonliving things that we
encounter
Learning Goal:
 Students will be able to discuss how chemical bonds form and
identify the type of chemical bond formed based on their knowledge
of the elements.
Objectives:
 Differentiate between covalent and ionic bonds.
 Identify the number of atoms of each element involved in the
formation of a chemical bond.
