Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Local Chemistry • University of Lethbridge Chemistry Research • Fermentation in Bovine Digestive tract at the Research Center (reduce methane emission) Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Chemistry Pre-test time! Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class WHMIS Symbols • Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System • Fill out your WHMIS worksheet using the textbook • (This is an independent learning style) Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class MSDS • Materials Safety Data Sheet • In partners answer the questions about the provided MSDS • Partners are collaborative learners for this search-and-find exercise Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class MSDS There are nine (9) categories of information that must be present on an MSDS in Canada. These categories are specified in the Controlled Products Regulations and include: • Product Information: product identifier (name), manufacturer and suppliers names, addresses, and emergency phone numbers • Hazardous Ingredients • Physical Data • Fire or Explosion Hazard Data • Reactivity Data: information on the chemical instability of a product and the substances it may react with • Toxicological Properties: health effects • Preventive Measures • First Aid Measures • Preparation Information: who is responsible for preparation and date of preparation of MSDS Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Personal Health Issues • Health hazards associated with exposure to toxic substances can be • acute (single rapid event with immediate harm) – Burn to skin – LD50: Lethal dose for 50% of living things • chronic (sustained exposure long term) – Cancer Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Physiological Classification of Hazardous Materials This classification identifies toxic materials on the basis of biologic action • Irritants - refers to some sort of aggravation of tissue. e.g. ammonia • Asphyxiants - deplete oxygen to the tissues e.g. carbon monoxide • Narcotics or Anaesthetics – depress the Central Nervous System. e.g. chloroform • Systemic Poisons - internal damage ie. causing liver or kidney damage Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Physiological Classification of Hazardous Materials This classification identifies toxic materials on the basis of biologic action • Carcinogens - induce cancer e.g. benzene, arsenic • Mutagens – cellular mutations that may cause cancer in the exposed individual or an undesirable mutation to occur in some later generation. e.g. radiation, variety of chemical agents that alter the genetic message • Teratogens - Agents or compounds that a pregnant woman takes into her body that generate defects in the fetus e.g. Thalidomide, possibly steroids • Sensitizers - Agents that may cause allergic or allergic-like responses to occur. May cause more sensitivity to that substance Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Brain Break – Review Video • Watch the “Lab Safety Rap” to review safety rules Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class History of Atomic Theory • The understanding that particles make up the underlying structure of matter has led to advancements in technology. • Dalton’s Billiard Ball Model • J.J. Thomson’s Raisin Bun Model • Ernest Rutherford’s gold foil experiment to find the Solar System Model • Bohr’s Shell Model (electron orbitals) • Einstein’s Quantum Model *You will learn these in your project tomorrow Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Polymers • The understanding that particles make up the underlying structure of matter has led to advancements in technology. • Particles arranged in a certain way make polymers that are very valuable technological advancements • Kevlar, nylon, etc. Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class *WRITE THESE NOTES DOWN Particle Model of Matter • All matter is made up of particles that are much too small to be seen. • The particles are always in motion. • They vibrate, rotate, and (in liquids and gases) move from place to place. • The particles have empty spaces between them. Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Properties and Classification of Matter • States of Matter Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Physical Properties • Physical properties describe the physical appearance and composition of a substance. Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Chemical Properties • Chemical properties describe the reactivity of a substance. For example, calcium carbide reacts vigorously when placed in water Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Recognizing a Chemical Reaction • A chemical reaction is a chemical change. Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Recognizing a Chemical Reaction • All reactions involve the production of new substances with their own characteristic properties. These properties include: – state at room temperature – melting point – colour – density Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Recognizing a Chemical Reaction • Many reactions cause a phase change, such as the formation of a gas (bubbles) or of a solid that appears as cloudiness in a previously clear solution. • All reactions involve the flow of energy. This may be detected by a change in temperature. Energy can be absorbed or released during a reaction. Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Pure Substances • In a pure substance, all the particles that make up the substance are identical, so its chemical and physical properties are constant • A pure substance may be an element or a compound. Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Solubility • Solubility is the property of a solid, liquid, or gaseous chemical substance (called solute) to dissolve in a solvent to form a solution of the solute in the solvent. Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class *You will need to be able to use a solubility chart to predict how soluble an ionic compound is in water Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Mixtures • Homogeneous • A mixture is a combination of pure substances. • Heterogeneous – Mechanical – Suspension – Colloid Homogenous Mixture • Look the same • In a solution, one substance is dissolved in another • For example, a soft drink is a solution composed mainly of sugar dissolved in water Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class • Hetero = different • Mechanical mixture: the different substances are visible, eg. soil • Suspension: the components are in different states, eg. mud • Colloid: similar to a suspension but the suspended substance cannot be easily separated from the other substance, eg. milk Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class Assignment • Practice Problems from Textbook 1.1 • Work on Student Periodic Table, VARK, Multiple Intelligences, WHMIS/MSDS worksheet • If done everything, read section 1.2, you will be doing a project on it tomorrow and selfteaching (Project-Based Learning) • Come to class at 11:45 to start working on projects (this is what Flex Time is for) Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class FYI COME TO CLASS AT 11:45am tomorrow to start on projects - Football team practices daily 3:15-6:00 new recruits still welcome - Boys Volleyball try-outs Tues-Weds this week, 3:30-5:30 campus west - Girls V-ball try-outs Tues-Weds this week. 4:00-6:00 campus east - Cross-country meeting this week Thursday 11am during Flex. Room 153 next to the FNMI center. Runs start next week Closure • To be handed in: – Student Periodic Table Profile (with results from VARK learner preference and MI multiple intelligence) – Assignment #1 practice problems Textbook 1.1 • We learned something new about safety, career connections, WHMIS, MSDS, and classification and properties of matter, pure substances, and mixtures • Tomorrow we start 1.2 and you will do a project reporting on everything from that section (projectbased learning strategy). I recommend reading this section tonight. Mrs. Grace Martin's Science 10 Class
