CH30-EC1
Investigate the chemistry of oxidation and reduction (redox) reactions.

SI, TPS

Indicators for this outcome
(a) Compare the characteristics of oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions with other types of chemical reactions. (STSE, K)
(b) Define oxidation and reduction and oxidizing and reducing agents in terms of electron transfer. (K)
(c) Write and balance redox equations using the half reaction and oxidation number method. (K, S)
(d) Create a reduction potential series based on student-collected data. (STSE, S)
(e) Illustrate and label the parts of electrochemical and electrolytic cells and explain how they work, including half-reactions, flow of ions and flow of electrons. (K, S)
(f) Differentiate between electrochemical and electrolytic cells in terms of spontaneity, direction of electron flow, energy, charge on electrodes and chemical change. (K, S)
(g) Predict the electric potential and spontaneity of various redox reactions using reduction potentials. (K, S)
(h) Design, construct, and evaluate a prototype of a working battery that meets specific student-identified criteria such as powering a small electric device. (STSE, S)

Conceptual Chemistry (5th ed.)
This textbook, developed for post-secondary students, provides support for the Foundations of Chemistry outcomes in Physical Science 20. For Chemistry 30, the resource supports all of the curricular outcomes. The resource includes a student access card to the etext and online resources. Each chapter of this resource opens with a graphic and narration to place the chemistry concepts in a real-world context, as well as a Hands-on Chemistry activity using common household ingredients. The resource integrates features that include: relevant figures, graphs and tables; essays; concepts checks; a Calculation Corner section to provide practice in the required math skills; and a For Your Information section to highlight interesting information. Each chapter concludes with a review, summary, hands-on application activities and an evaluation. The textbook does not address First Nations and Métis content, perspectives or ways of knowing.

Chemistry. Matter and Change. Student Edition
The chapters in this textbook provide support for the Physical Science 20 Foundations of Chemistry outcomes and provide some support for the Heat outcomes, but do not provide support for Properties of Waves outcomes. The text supports all of the outcomes in the Chemistry 30 curriculum. Framed around big ideas and essential questions, each chapter is introduced by connecting chemistry to students' lives. The chapters offer many real-world examples of how chemistry is involved in everyday objects, natural phenomena or experiences, as well as provide web links, example problems, demonstration and lab activities, a review and a chapter assessment. The Careers in Chemistry sections throughout the textbook link the concepts studied to everyday careers. The textbook integrates appropriate graphic representations of scientific concepts and tables of relevant data. The textbook does not address First Nations and Métis content, perspectives or ways of knowing.
