On-line weekly planner template

Teacher Rafi Tasnim Rahman Subject Chemistry Grade 10

Dates First week of July, 2020
Topic Lesson 1
17.1 - Organic chemistry
Lesson 2
17.2 - Hydrocarbons (Part 1)
Resources Textbook: Essential Chemistry for Cambridge IGCSE (Roger Norris)
Key words Homologous series, Functional group, alkanes
Learning Lesson 1
Objectives - Describe the concept of homologous series as a ‘family’ of similar
compounds with similar properties due to the presence of the same
functional group
- Describe the general characteristics of a homologous series
- Recall that the compounds in a homologous series have the same
general formula
- Distinguish between molecular and structural formula
- Name and draw the structures of basic organic compounds -
methane/ethane/ethanol/ethanoic acid
- Establish rules of number of bonds formed for carbon, hydrogen and
oxygen
Lesson 2
- Define the term hydrocarbon
- Name and draw the structures of alkanes according to IUPAC
guidelines
Learning activities Lesson 1
and tasks - Learners could draw (with the help of the teacher) some basic organic
compounds to determine the structural formula of successive
members (Methane - Pentane) and emphasise the difference of CH 2
between successive members of the homologous series.
- Work out successive members using general formula.
- Teacher will stress that the functional group determines chemical
reactions, but Mr and length of molecule affects physical properties,
e.g. state, boiling point.
- Discuss the effect of increased molecular mass down the series on
boiling point.
Lesson 2
- Distinguish hydrocarbons from other organic compounds (exclusively
C and H)
- Students to learn naming of straight chain alkanes.
- Students to learn the name of alkyl prefixes.
