Question
Chapter 3, Problem 2CR
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the ability to sort through and analyse facts and the ability to propose should be discussed along with the solving problems are so much more important in learning chemistry.
Concept Introduction:
Chemistry is a practical and theoretical science. It involves the study of laws and theories and the application of these theories in real life.

What are advantages and limitations of different types of modelling? (modelling with experiments, computer simulations, modelling kits and quantitative modelling)
Explain your rationale for using the summative assessment (below) from the lesson plan on mixing substances in a 5th-grade classroom based on the below standard and learning objective, including how you will use student outcomes to inform future instructional decisions.
Summative Assessment
Summative:
Components of the Lab Report
Purpose: The student should clearly state the purpose of the experiment, which is to determine whether the mixing of two or more substances results in new substances.
Procedure: The student should describe the steps they took to conduct the experiment. This includes the substances they chose to mix and the safety equipment they used.
Observations: The student should record any observable changes that occurred when the substances were mixed. This could include a color change, the formation of a precipitate, or a change in temperature.
Conclusion: The student should state whether a new substance was formed based on their observations. They should also…
