Part B. Notes for Teachers

1. Introduction The reactions of metals and the metal reactivity series are major topics in the Secondary 4 chemistry curriculum. They illustrate the reactivity and the properties of various important metals, such as sodium and magnesium. The reactivity of metals serves as an introduction for two very important chemistry concepts – periodicity and oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions. From the metal reactivity series, many useful redox reactions and electrolytic reactions can be constructed. A remarkable example is the thermit reaction used for railway welding. This courseware is partly designed as a self-study package for S4-5 students. It guides the students to study the section of reactions of metals in the curriculum. Since chemistry is an experimental subject, the importance of observations and reaction phenomenon should be emphasised. The courseware comes with a comprehensive video library showing the reactions of metals with air, water and dilute acid solution. Selected displacement reactions and the thermit reaction are also included in the library. The video library facilitates the students to learn the reactivity and the reactions of the various common metals. Furthermore, the package also contains a photo library that includes the appearance of metals and their mineral ores, as well as an extensive collection of reaction snapshots. The courseware also serves as a library of digital photographs and video clips for both teachers and students to prepare presentations and assignments. Some of the reactions of metals are violent and possess certain hazards when performed in secondary school laboratories (e.g. the thermit reaction). The video library provides an alternative for students to have a glimpse of the observations of the vigorous reactions. Tutorials and exercises are also included in the courseware to enhance students’ understanding on the course materials. The “guided study” is to guide the students to study through the course contents on selected topics. The “multiple-choice exercise” serves as an exercise to test students’ understanding on what they have learnt. The “essay questions” is an advanced exercise for training the learning and writing skills of the students.

2. Properties of Metals

Figure 1. The Main Page of the English version

The courseware includes a database of the general properties of 12 common metals (potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, iron, zinc, lead, copper, mercury, silver and gold). The database is constructed in bilingual (English/Chinese). The database can be accessed by either clicking the blue boxes on the periodic table on the main page, or from the pull-down menu at the upper-right corner of the main page.

Figure 2. The pull-down menu for accessing the properties of metals

The database shows the general properties for each metal and is organised in four sub-categories:

3. Guided Study

The “Guided Study” section is accessed by clicking the icon located at the bottom of the page. A floating frame will be displayed to show the questions. The floating frame can be closed or minimised by clicking the appropriate icons located at the upper-right corner of the frame. This section consists of three sets of multiple-choice questions designed to cover the important points of the selected topics: • Thermit Reaction • Reactivity of Metals with Air • Reactivity of Metals with Water and Dilute Acids By working through the questions one by one, students can acquire the basic knowledge of the topics.

Figure 3. The floating frame of guided study

The three round icons located at the upper-right corner allow students to switch to another topic during the exercise. Students answer the questions by clicking the round buttons on the left of the multiple-choice options and then click the “Check” button at the bottom to confirm. It will proceed to the next question if the answer chosen is correct. If the answer chosen is incorrect, however, the question will repeat until the correct answer is chosen. A “Reference” button will also appear at the lower right corner of the frame and it links to the relevant section for that question. The floating frame will minimise automatically when the “Reference” button is clicked, and can be re-opened by clicking the maximise button.

Figure 4. Minimised floating frame 4. Video Library The video library contains a collection of digitized video clips of the various reactions of metals. The video clips are organised into the following sub-categories:

• Reactions of Metals with Air (Burning of Metals) • Reactions of Metals with Dilute Acid • Reactions of Metals with Steam • Reactions of Metals with Water • Displacement Reactions

Photo Library This courseware contains a comprehensive collection of digital photographs. The library contains the appearance of the metals and their minerals, as well as the snapshots of their reactions. The photographs are organised into the following categories:

• Appearance of Metals • Minerals of Metals • Reactions of Metals with Dilute Acids • Reactions of Metals with Air (Burning of Metals) • Reactions of Metals with Water • Thermit Reaction • Displacement Reactions in Aqueous Solution • Reduction of Metal Oxides

The photographs are annotated with bilingual captions. To view the photographs, click the thumbnail icons of the chemical symbols. A new window will be displayed to show the photographs. Place the mouse pointer over the red triangular scroll button to scroll the thumbnails across a category.

Links are provided for fast access to the relevant digital photographs and video clips. 7. Exercises / Games Exercises and games are included in this courseware to test students’ understanding on the materials they have learnt, and to arouse students’ interest. There are three sub-sections in this category, namely: Multiple Choice Questions Essay-type Questions Virtual Reaction

7.1 Multiple Choice Questions The questions are shown in a floating frame which can be closed or minimised by clicking the appropriate buttons at the upper right corner of the frame. Clicking the maximise button of a minimised frame will re-open the frame and resume the test. In each multiple-choice test, eight questions are randomly chosen from a collection of 40 questions. To answer the questions, choose the best options by clicking the circle buttons on the left and click the “Next question” icons at the lower right corner to confirm the answer. At the end of the test, a report will be given to show the score of the test and the correct answers for the questions.

7.2 Essay-type Questions Three essay-type questions are included as an advanced exercise for the students. The aim of this exercise is to enhance the learning and writing skills of the students. Students are expected to browse the contents of the courseware, collecting useful information from different sections, taking notes using the notes tool provided in the package when necessary, and prepare an in-depth answer in the essay format.

Figure 9. Essay Questions – Choose One of the Three Topics

Figure 10. Essay Questions – Write the Answer in Microsoft® Word® and Submit to the Teacher

detailed question shown on the top. Students are expected to write their answers on the Word document and submit the completed essay to the teachers. 7.3 Virtual Reaction Two reactions are presented in the form of computer simulation in this courseware. They substitute for the experiments which may be too dangerous to perform, or the actual visual observations of which may be too subtle. The two computer simulated reactions are:

• Reaction of Potassium with Dilute Hydrochloric Acid • Reduction of Copper(II) Oxide to Copper by Carbon

To select and play the virtual reactions, click the red “Play” icon at the right hand side of the floating frame.
