The program begins by showing that a mole is just one of many ways of counting objects. |
|
|
Dimensional analysis is used to determine the cash value of a mass of cola cans. This analogy is used to prepare the student for what they will encounter in the mole program. |
|
|
The molar mass of an element is explained and several examples are given. |
|
|
Pictures of a mole of carbon, aluminum and sulfur help separate the idea of number of atoms and mass. |
|
|
The program takes a step by step approach in solving a mole problem using dimensional analysis. |
|
|
Students work out several problems as they progress through the program. |
|
|
Mole Practice gives the student 4 sample problems to solve. |
|
|
Student place a sample on a "working" balance to find its mass. They then calculate moles or particles. At the end of each problem a solution is shown. |
|
|
As in all Physical Science Series programs an electronic quiz awaits the student. |
