Apply the scientific method to propose a hypothesis and set up an experiment including positive and negative controls and appropriate units of measurement.
CO 2: Predict the numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons given the atomic symbol or limited information for a specific isotope of an element and relate them to atomic mass and charge.
CO 3: Determine chemical names and/or chemical formula for diatomic or simple polyatomic compounds and draw a Lewis structure, construct a molecular geometry and determine the polarity for a covalent.
CO 4: Balance chemical equations, calculate the molar mass of all compounds in the reaction and demonstrate how mole ratios play a role in stoichiometry.
CO 5: Predict how a change in one or more of the parameters of a gas alters dependent gas parameters such as pressure, volume or temperature.
CO 6: Calculate the concentration and volume of a solution given solute and solvent parameters.
CO 7: Predict the properties of and identify reduction and oxidation agents as well as acids and bases by analysis of chemical formulas, chemical reactions, and solution pH values.
CO 8: Differentiate the common classes of organic functional groups and identify the appropriate common or IUPAC names, applications, and chemical structures for simple organic.
CO 9: Differentiate between the types of radio-active decay at the subatomic level and provide real-world applications, sources, and risks.
CO 10: Contrast the synthesis, composition, structure and functions of major biological macromolecules and Illustrate the process of flow of genetic information.
Points to speak on:
*Metabolic alkalosis: excess of bicarbonate due to renal insufficiencies and different syndromes that cause this. What is bicarbonate? Why is it important within the body?
*Respiratory alkalosis: incorrect mechanical ventilation and the decreased production of CO2
*How is alkalosis diagnosed?
*How is alkalosis treated?
*What are the dangers of untreated alkalosis, both metabolic and respiratory?
