Unit 1 — Chemical Reactions and Their Environmental Impacts

Overview

Overview

  • Third Preparatory, Science, Term 1 (English edition).
  • This unit has three lessons (1) Types of Chemical Reactions, (2) Combustion Reactions and Environmental Pollution, (3) Smoking and Its Hazards.
  • In the first lesson you learn to sort reactions into families and to predict what happens when a metal meets oxygen, water, an acid or a salt solution.
  • In the second lesson you study one very important family, combustion, and see how it affects the air we breathe.
  • In the third lesson you apply the same chemistry to a human habit that harms both people and the environment.
