Chemistry Standard List

List of standards grouped by standard group and ordered by Dewey hierarchy.
Preamble

Physical Science is a conceptual, inquiry-based course that investigates the basic concepts of chemistry and physics, including energy, waves, electricity and magnetism, atomic structure, nuclear chemistry, matter, and solutions. This course is designed to prepare students for further studies in chemistry and physics by building upon content knowledge, including chemical bonding and reactions and Newton’s laws of motion, from Grade 8 Physical Science. In this course, students use evidence from their own investigations and the work of others to develop and refine knowledge of the disciplinary core ideas. They apply mathematical and language skills to create increasingly more sophisticated model-based explanations and arguments. The standards promote a depth of conceptual understanding and scientific literacy that will adequately prepare students for college, career, and citizenship. Various resources, including those specific to the local area and evidence-based literature found within scientific publications, should be used to extend and increase the complexity of the core ideas. Content standards are organized according to the disciplinary core ideas for the physical science domain. The first core idea, “Matter and Its Interactions,” deals with the substances and processes of the universe on microscopic and macroscopic levels. The second one, “Energy,” involves conserving energy, energy transformations, and energy applications to everyday life. The third core idea, “Waves and Their Applications in Technologies for Information Transfer,” examines wave properties, electromagnetic radiation, information technologies, and instrumentation. Embedded in the content standards are the disciplinary core ideas of the Engineering, Technology, and Applications of Science (ETS) domain, which require students to use design strategies in conjunction with knowledge and understanding of science and technology to solve practical problems. Engineering standards are denoted with a gear icon . Through participation in the engineering design process, students use data to justify the selection of a particular material for a specific application and evaluate the effects of using ions or isotopes of elements as a solution to a complex real-world problem.

Preamble

Physical Science is a conceptual, inquiry-based course that investigates the basic concepts of chemistry and physics, including energy, waves, electricity and magnetism, atomic structure, nuclear chemistry, matter, and solutions. This course is designed to prepare students for further studies in chemistry and physics by building upon content knowledge, including chemical bonding and reactions and Newton’s laws of motion, from Grade 8 Physical Science. In this course, students use evidence from their own investigations and the work of others to develop and refine knowledge of the disciplinary core ideas. They apply mathematical and language skills to create increasingly more sophisticated model-based explanations and arguments. The standards promote a depth of conceptual understanding and scientific literacy that will adequately prepare students for college, career, and citizenship. Various resources, including those specific to the local area and evidence-based literature found within scientific publications, should be used to extend and increase the complexity of the core ideas.

1 Evaluate sources of information concerning the law of conservation of energy to illustrate energy transformations in practical applications and natural systems. Examples: Describe energy transformation when an arrow is fired from a bow. Illustrate how solar energy is transformed into chemical energy and then into mechanical energy which living things use to do work. 2023 ACOS Physical Science Standards <p>Physical Science is a conceptual, inquiry-based course that investigates the basic concepts of chemistry and physics, including energy, waves, electricity and magnetism, atomic structure, nuclear chemistry, matter, and solutions.
