Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. The air in the atmosphere is a mixture.
  2. The atmosphere is composed of: - about four-fifths nitrogen (80%) - about one-fifth oxygen (20%) - small proportions of various other gases, including carbon dioxide, water vapour and noble gases.
  3. The gas test for oxygen is it relights a glowing spill.
  4. The gas test for carbon dioxide is it turns lime water cloudy.
  5. The gas test for hydrogen is it makes a squeaky pop when lit.
  6. Something to do with revising Elements and compounds again: Draw the substances to show its a mixture.
