2.1 Introducing Polymers & 2.

2 Synthetic Addition Polymers

Name: _______________________________ Score: / 20

Teacher: Date: Time:

Purpose of Assessment: Assessment of Learning


Method of Assessment: KTCA OUT OF

Learning Goals:

● Students can explain the general structure of polymers.


● Students can differentiate natural and synthetic polymers.
● Students can draw an addition polymer given the name of its monomer, and how
to draw the monomer given the structure of the polymer.
● Students know plastics and identify its properties.

Overall Expectations

● B2. Investigate organic compounds and organic chemical reactions and use
various methods to represent the compounds.
● B3. Demonstrate an understanding of the structure, properties, and chemical
behavior of compounds within each class of organic compounds.

Specific Expectations

● B2.1 Use appropriate terminology related to organic chemistry, including, but not
limited to hydrocarbon, unsaturated hydrocarbon, structural isomer, stereoisomer,
and polymer.
● B2.3 Build molecular models for a variety of simple organic compounds.
● B2.4 Analyse, on the basis of inquiry, various organic chemical reactions (e.g.,
production of esters, polymerization, oxidation of alcohols, multiple bonds in an
organic compound, combustion reactions, addition reactions).
● B3.3 Explain the chemical changes that occur during various types of organic
chemical reactions, including substitution, addition, elimination, oxidation,
esterification, and hydrolysis.
● B3.4 Explain the difference between an addition reaction and a condensation
polymerization reaction.
● B3.5 Explain the concept of isomerism in organic compounds, and how variations
in the properties of isomers relate to their structural and molecular formulae.
