Connecting Questions about Processes at Different Scales Unanswered Questions Macroscopic Scale How do potatoes move and function? Microscopic Scale How do potatoes’ cells get energy to help it to move and function? Atomic-Molecular Scale What chemical change provides energy to the potato cells? Make connections among processes at different scales. Display slide 3 in the PPT. Show students the short clip of a plant moving. Follow the link in the PPT, in the materials list, or here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LICDb8nM5rs). Introduce students to the new driving question: What do potatoes do when they move and function? Connect this question at the macroscopic scale to an unanswered question about the Energy Change Question at the microscopic scale: How do a potato’s cells help it to move and function? Connect this question at the microscopic scale to an unanswered question about the Energy Change Question at the atomic-molecular scale: How does a potato get the energy to move? Assure students that we will be able to answer several of their unanswered questions by the end of today’s activity.

How do plants get energy to move and function? Materials for growth: Biosynthesis Food To Cells Energy: Cellular respiration How do a potato plant’s cells get energy to move? Use slide 4 to show students that plants use food in two ways. Today we’ll be focusing on energy as one of those uses (cellular respiration).

Connecting the Atomic-Molecular Scale to the Macroscopic Scale Chemical change Image Credit: Craig Douglas, Michigan State University   Use the plant animation to connect the atomic-molecular scale to the macroscopic scale Show slide 5 of the PPT. Use the animation to support students in connecting the atomic-molecular scale to the macroscopic scale. Tell students they will be modeling the change that occurs during cellular respiration at the atomic-molecular scale.

Three Ways to Represent Molecules: Glucose Image Credit: Craig Douglas, Michigan State University Introduce students to the three different ways we represent molecules in the Carbon TIME units. Display slide 6 of the PPT. Post a copy of the Three Ways to Represent Glucose 11 x 17 Poster in your classroom and display slide 6 in the PPT. Have students discuss the differences in the three different images we use in the Carbon TIME Units to represent molecules. The first form uses letters and numbers. Each letter represents a type of atom and each number indicates how many of that atom are in the molecule. The second form uses letters and sticks. Each letter represents an atom, and each stick represents a bond. The third form uses balls and sticks. Each ball represents an atom, and each stick represents a bond.

How atoms bond together in molecules Atoms in stable molecules always have a certain number of bonds to other atoms: Carbon: 4 bonds Oxygen: 2 bonds Hydrogen: 1 bond Oxygen atoms do NOT bond to other oxygen atoms if they can bond to carbon or hydrogen instead. Chemical energy is stored in bonds between atoms Some bonds (C-C and C-H) have high chemical energy Other bonds (C-O and O-H) have low chemical energy Prepare for building molecular models. Divide the class into pairs and give each pair a molecular model kit, a set of Forms of Energy Cards, and Molecular Models 11 x 17 Placemat. Pass out one copy of 4.1 Molecular Models for Potato Cellular Respiration Worksheet to each student. Tell students that they’ll be using molecular models to model the process of cellular respiration which will help them answer several of their unanswered questions. Show students slide 7 to explain the bonding of atoms in molecules. Tell students that the rules on this slide are important because they apply to all molecules that they will make in all Carbon TIME units.

Making the reactant molecules: glucose and oxygen Complete Steps 1 and 2 in Part B of your worksheet. Remember that this process is happening in all of the cells in the plant. Today, let’s think about a potato cell. Have students use the molecular model kits to construct the reactants. Use slide 8 to show instructions to construct the reactants: glucose and oxygen. Students can also follow instructions in Part B of their worksheet.

Photo of reactant molecules: C6H12O6 (glucose) and O2 (oxygen) Start by making the molecules and energy units of the reactants and putting them on the reactants side, then rearrange the atoms and energy units to show the products. Glucose Chemical change Oxygen Image Credit (energy cards): Craig Douglas, Michigan State University Image Credit (molecules): Michigan State University Check students’ work for the reactants. Show slide 9 in the PPT. Have students compare their own molecules with the picture on the slide. Slide 10 shows an important message: after students create their reactant molecules, make sure they put away all unused pieces of their molecule kits. This helps reinforce that the matter and energy in the reactants are conserved through the chemical change, and that only the materials from the reactants are used to build the products. Reactants Products Remember: Atoms last forever (so you can rearrange atoms into new molecules, but can’t add or subtract atoms). Energy lasts forever (so you can change forms of energy, but energy units can’t appear or go away).

Important: When you are finished constructing the reactants, put all extra pieces away. Check students’ work for the reactants. Show slide 9 in the PPT. Have students compare their own molecule with the picture on the slide. Slide 10 shows an important message: after students create their reactant molecules, make sure they put away all unused pieces of their molecule kits. This helps reinforce that the matter and energy in the reactants are conserved through the chemical change, and that only the materials from the reactants are used to build the products.

Record your results Record your results for your reactants. Have students record their descriptions of atoms and energy in reactant molecules. Show slide 11 in the PPT. When they have completed their reactants, tell students to complete the table about matter and energy in Part C of their worksheet for the reactants.

Rearranging the atoms to make product molecules: Carbon Dioxide and Water Complete Steps 3 and 4 in Part B of your worksheet. Remember that this process is happening in all of the cells in the plant. Today, let’s think about a potato cell. Have students construct a model of the product molecules. Show slide 12 of the PPT and have students re-arrange the atoms to make molecules of CO2 and H2O. Tell students to follow the instructions in steps 3 and 4 in Part B of the worksheet to construct their products. To do this, they will need to move their molecules from the reactants side to the products side of the placemat. Explain to students that atoms last forever, so they should not add or subtract atoms when they change the reactant molecule into product molecules.

Photo of product molecules: CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) Start by making the molecules and energy units of the reactants and putting them on the reactants side, then rearrange the atoms and energy units to show the products. Chemical change Carbon dioxide Water Image Credit (energy cards): Craig Douglas, Michigan State University Image Credit (molecules): Michigan State University Check students’ work for the products. Show slide 13 in the PPT. Have students compare their own molecule with the picture on the slide. Use slide 14 to compare the reactants and products. Reactants Products Remember: Atoms last forever (so you can rearrange atoms into new molecules, but can’t add or subtract atoms). Energy lasts forever (so you can change forms of energy, but energy units can’t appear or go away).

When students have completed their reactants, tell students to complete the table in Part C in their worksheet that explains what they ended with. Have students verify that the number of atoms before and after remained constant: Atoms last forever! Tell students that this means that the number of atoms before and after the reaction does not change.

Discuss results with the class. Show slide 23 in the PPT. Complete the “check yourself” questions with the class in Part C.

Writing a Chemical Equation Chemists use chemical equations to show how atoms of reactant molecules are rearranged to make product molecules Writing the equation in symbols: Chemists use an arrow to show how reactants change into products: [reactant molecule formulas] product molecule formulas] Saying it in words: Chemists read the arrow as “yield” or “yields:” [reactant molecule names] yield [product molecule names] Equations must be balanced: Atoms last forever, so reactant and product molecules must have the same number of each kind of atom Try it: can you write a balanced chemical equation to show the chemical change when animals move (use energy)? Help students write a balanced chemical equation. Tell students that now that they have represented a chemical change using molecular models and in animations, they will represent chemical change by writing the chemical equation.
