Bases and Buffers
Lesson Hook:
The class will have a discussion on the importance of buffers. Most students would have been exposed to the term 'buffers' at this point in the semester, especially if they are or have taken grade 12 biology. Lead the students in the variety of aspects in the use of buffers and the importance of it.
Lesson:
POGIL will be used once again, for this section. After the completion of this activity, students should be able to solve problems that involve the base dissociation constant, and define the properties of a buffer solution. They do not mention buffer capacity in the POGIL and is important for you to notify the students of it.
Consolidation:
To ensure that the students have read and understood all of the concepts provided by POGIL, and some of the other concepts that were taught by you directly, you can play bluff or the snowball game. If there is not enough time for a game, an exit slip can be used.
