Essential question: How do redox reactions convert chemical and electrical energy?
Separated redox processes can drive electron flow through a circuit.
Build an initial model and explanation for: How do redox reactions convert chemical and electrical energy?
Record observations, questions, an initial model, and one claim that could be tested. Use these concepts where relevant: anode; cathode; cell potential; oxidation; reduction.
Study and explain the week's core ideas: anode; cathode; cell potential; oxidation; reduction
Open electrochemistry text.
Revise Monday's model. Add two evidence-backed annotations and explain one limitation or uncertainty.
Read cell diagrams and compare potential data.
Show units, setup, calculation or graph reasoning, then write what the quantitative evidence can and cannot establish about: How do redox reactions convert chemical and electrical energy?
Virtual galvanic-cell investigation or teacher-supervised low-risk cell.
Use the course safety charter. If supervision, facilities, materials, or conditions are not appropriate, use the supplied-data/simulation alternative rather than improvising hazardous procedures.
Record variables or design constraints, procedure/model, observations/data, and one revision you would make after reviewing the evidence.
Answer the essential question: How do redox reactions convert chemical and electrical energy?
Submit a claim, at least two specific pieces of evidence, reasoning that connects them, one limitation/counterclaim, and a correction note for any essential concept below 80%.
Select one artifact from this week and explain why it is trustworthy evidence of growth.
