Flame Test Lab
The quintessential chemistry lab, Flame Test Lab! Students will use spectroscopes to identify the component photons of light that are emitted from Spectrum Tubes and Flame Tests. Students will learn to use the Spectroscopes in the Gas Tube Spectrum demo and compare what they see to the teacher's spectra sheet. After practicing with the spectroscopes students get to take their skills into the lab to conduct flame tests and identify the line spectra for each metal compound. Lastly, students will match and identify the unknown solutions by comparing the line spectra and flame colors.

In this lesson, students use the Kepler’s Laws PhET Simulation to collect data on the period and average radius of the planetary orbits. They graph and analyze that data to derive Kepler’s 3rd Law.
After learning about emission spectra, electron energy levels, orbitals and configurations, and periodic trends for atomic radius and ionization energy; this is concluding activity that require
Students get to discover the relationship between solutes and solvents in relation to concentration. As an inquiry based lab, students will mix their own concentrations of Kool-Aid or other powdered
