9-26. Use historical examples to explain how new ideasare limited by the context in which they are conceived;are often initially rejected by the scientific establishment;sometimes spring from unexpected findings; and usuallygrow slowly through contributions from many differentinvestigators (e.g., atomic theory, quantum theory andNewtonian mechanics).9-2. Illustrate that the methodsand procedures used to obtainevidence must be clearly reportedto enhance opportunities forfurther investigations.9-27. Describe advances and issues in physical sciencethat have important, long-lasting effects on science andsociety (e.g., atomic theory, quantum theory, Newtonianmechanics, nuclear energy, nanotechnology, plastics,ceramics and communication technology).9-3. Demonstrate that reliablescientific evidence improves theability of scientists to offeraccurate predictions.9-4. Explain how support of ethical practices in science (e.g.,individual observations andconfirmations, accurate reporting,peer review and publication) arerequired to reduce bias.9-5. Justify that scientific theoriesare explanations of large bodiesof information and/orobservations that withstandrepeated testing.9-6. Explain that inquiry fuelsobservation and experimentationthat produce data that are thefoundation of scientific disciplines.Theories are explanations of these data.

9-1. Recognize that all atoms of the same element contain thesame number of protons, andelements with the same numberof protons may or may not havethe same mass. Those withdifferent masses (differentnumbers of neutrons) are calledisotopes.9-2. Illustrate that atoms withthe same number of positivelycharged protons and negativelycharged electrons are electricallyneutral.9-9. Investigate the propertiesof pure substances and mixtures(e.g., density, conductivity,hardness, properties of alloys,superconductors andsemiconductors.
