Grade 10
Duration:
1. Define the terms: acid, weak acid, strong acid, and indicator.
2. Plan and design an experiment to classify substance as acid or bases.
3. Distinguish between a weak and strong acid
4. Describe a test to test for hydrogen and carbon dioxide gases.
5. Write correct balanced chemical equation to show the reaction between an acid and
a. Carbonate
b. Metal
c. Metal oxide
d. Metal hydroxide
e. Hydrogen carbonate
Materials and apparatus: HCl, H2SO4, CaCO3, zinc dust, sodium carbonate, calcium hydroxide
solution sodium hydroxide, copper oxide, grape, tomato, hair crme, neutralising shampoo,
sodium carbonate, calcium hydroxide, window cleaner, vinegar, bath soap, milk.
Strategies:
Day 1
1. Students will be presented with following problem. Plan and design an experiment to
classify the following substances as acid or bases: grape, tomato, hair crme, neutralising
shampoo, sodium carbonate, calcium hydroxide, window cleaner, vinegar, bath soap,
milk.
2. Students will read and work in their groups to devise a test. Teacher will review students
3. Carry out test on household substance to determine if they are acids or bases.
4. Students will be cause to assess their choose of indicator to see if whether or not the
indicator they selected will be able to distinguish if the substances are strong/weak acids
or strong/weak alkaline. If unsuitable students will design a new test to classify the
substance.
5. Name some acids found in living things and their uses e.g. grape, tomato and vinegar.

Strategies:
Day 1
1. Students will be given the objectives and meet in the group to complete the objectives by
undergoing research. Students will come up with questions from their research.
2. Students will politely ask their questions any member of the class can answer these
questions.
3. Each group after the discussion will be given an objective to summarise using art, dance,
experimenting, music or poetry.
Culminating Activity:
