Chemistry Basics for Students

This unit focuses on chemical equations and reactions. Students will learn to identify substances using chemical formulas, determine the number of atoms in formulas, recognize if equations are balanced related to conservation of mass, and investigate evidence that new substances are formed in chemical reactions. Key questions address the differences between elements, compounds and mixtures, how formulas identify substances, how to determine if an equation is balanced, how conservation of mass is represented, and what indicates a chemical reaction occurred.
