CFCs: A Chilling Issue
B1.1 assess the impact on human health, society, and the environment of organic compounds used in everyday life
B2.2 use International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) nomenclature conventions to identify names, write chemical formulae, and create structural formulae for the different classes of organic compounds, including hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, ethers, amines, amides, and simple aromatic compounds

- Effects of CFCs on the ozone layer and how it’s a serious problem
- Students learn about the prior uses of CFCs are refrigerants and the reason that they were banned
- Study the search for better refrigerants
- Make a brochure or a poster informing others on the negative effects that chlorofluorocarbons have on the society and alternatives
- Research skills and presentation skills
