Sophia: Chemical Reaction Types: Double Displacement (Precipitation): Lesson 2

Chemistry whizzes test the change in water temperature produced by a burning candle and the change in acid temperature produced by magnesium metal. With these two laboratory activities they explore heat produced during chemical...

Prove the Law of Conservation of Mass through a lab investigation. A well-designed lesson plan asks groups to combine materials and monitor indicators for chemical reactions. Measuring the mass of the reactants and products allows...

This is one way to get a reaction from your classes! The lesson presents the different reaction types with an explanation, chemical equation model, and examples. The slides include decomposition, single replacement, double replacement,...

Here is a video that is a double displacement delight! Show young scientists how to tackle the longest (and most interesting) chemical reactions to write with a video from JFR Science. The narrator shows examples of double displacement...

A descriptive video segment details five types of chemical reactions, including synthesis, decomposition, single displacement, double displacement, and combustion. It is engaging for even the most discerning young chemists.  

This lesson will demonstrate how to identify a precipitation reaction and determine whether or not it will occur by using several examples. It is 1 of 2 in the series titled "Chemical Reaction Types: Double Displacement (Precipitation)."

This lesson will show how to write a complete ionic equation and by omitting spectator ions a net ionic equation can be written. It is 2 of 2 in the series titled "Chemical Reaction Types: Net Ionic Equation."

How are chemical reactions like dating? A collision must first occur! In this hilarious approach to speeding up chemical reactions, viewers find out that five changes can increase the rate of reaction: smaller space, increased number of...

This lesson will show that a combustion reaction is a hydrocarbon burned in oxygen to form water and carbon dioxide. It is 2 of 2 in the series titled "Chemical Reaction Types: Combustion."

What happened when the chemistry teacher told a bad joke? There was no reaction! A creative take on the traditional reaction types lesson invites learners to draw their own conclusions about how compounds and elements combine. Groups...
