Day One 21 May

Topic Structure of Molecule

Sub-topic Why do atoms react?
Objective To explain the nature and reactivity of atoms and molecules
 Trigger Questions:
o Can you name any natural glue or adhesive?
 Points to discuss:
o Nature of matter
o Nature of compounds
o Arrangement of atoms in and their effect on properties of substances.
o Nature of adhesives and glues
o Reasons for atom to react
 Example 4.1 will be done in the class
 Self assessment exercise

Self assessment exercise 4.1 will be discussed

Day Two: 22 May

Topic Atomic size

Sub-topic
Objective What is atomic size
 Trigger question
o What type of attractive forces is present in the atom?
 Points to discuss.
o Basic idea of atomic size will be explained

Day Three 23 May

Topic Assignment on the history of making of periodic table

Day Four: 24 May

Topic Ionization Energy + electron affinity

Sub-topic
Objective To explain the nature of ionization energy and electron affinity and their trends.
Methodology:

Ionization energy: the energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom. Electron affinity: the
energy change when a neutral atom attracts an electron to become a negative ion. Electronegativity:
the ability of an atom in a molecule to draw bonding electrons to itself.

 Trigger Questions:
o What is priodicity?
 Points to discuss:
o Definition on Ionization Energy + electron affinity
o Nature along periods and down the group
o Affect of Ionization Energy + electron affinity on elements

Methodology:

 Trigger Questions:
o What are cations and anions?
 Points to discuss:
o Understanding of electro negativity and electro positivity will be given
o Trends of electro negativity and electro positivity along groups and periods will be
discussed.
 Homework
o Self assessment exercise will be given as homework.
