Functional groups research 1 2 3 To investigate

Functional groups research

1. 2. 3. • To investigate the chemistry of different families of organic chemicals • To look at uses of different families of organic chemicals • To identify naturally occurring and manmade compounds with which we are familiar. Purpose of work

1. 2. 3. • Introduce your chemical families: including information on molecular structure. • Describe the chemical properties resulting from the functional groups • Identify uses of chemicals in these families • Give examples of man-made and natural chemicals with some molecular diagrams • Describe manufacturing processes with flow diagrams • Explain health or environmental concerns associated with these families of compounds. Content of presentations

Marks Description Uses Effects Individual Effort 1 none None No work and poor team evaluation 2 Wrong or very superficial Vague reference Some mention Some evidence of effort 3 At least something described correctly At least one use fully described One aspect done well Either team eval poor or not observed working 4 Most of properties and structure described More than one use given Two aspects done well A few comments but mostly good 5 Chemical properties fully described Man made and natural fully described Environmental and health effects and production processes fully described Well evaluated by team and on task throughout Presentation Rubric
