A1.1 Water

Published in: Biology | Science
50 Views

The attached PowerPoint is a preview for the NEW IBDP Biology CURRICULUM (A1.1 Water). This PowerPoint sample is an example of how I plan my lessons. By using visuals, colours, research questions, videos, and diagrams, I hope to engage students with a personalised learning experience that caters to a range of learner abilities (HL and SL) and study styles. Students will also receive a copy of printed notes that can be completed throughout each tutoring session. The notes align with the PowerPoint and include many colours/diagrams/visuals like in the PowerPoint. This ensures that all content can be studied at a rate that suits the student. Throughout the duration of the course, a folder with notes will build up as we progress through each subtopic.

Students should be able to represent two or more water molecules and hydrogen bonds between them with the notat'ön shown below to indicate p o/ority.

  3. Water as the medium of Life has originated in water, with first cells enclosing a small volume of it in a membrane, where solutes dissolved and chemical reactions occurred. The interaction of molecules in water is the basis of all life.

  6. Water Chemistry The 3-D structure of water: Bent and unsymmetrical shape — 'tetrahedral'
  7. Water Chemistry: Defined Polarity Water molecules are polar (one end is slightly + and the other end is slightly -) H H
  8. In notes: Name the type of bond formed between the atoms in a water molecule 'A water molecule has three atoms: two hydrogen (H) atoms and one oxygen (O) atom. That's why water is sometimes referred to as 1420.'
  9. Draw a molecule of water showing bonding and non-bonding electrons, and highlight the polar covalent bond: Lone e: Pirs Oxygen Oxygen: 8P, 8E, 8N Hydrogen: IR IE, IN
