Do Now!
On your handout, please write some observa6ons from this pain6ng from 17th century Europe. What a?tudes do you think society had about “scien6sts”? How do you know?
Place your HW in the blue bin!
UNIT 1: Introduc2on to Ma5er Lecture 1: MONEY, MONEY, MONEY! AIM and OBJECTIVES AIM: Can humans make gold out of thin air? OBJECTIVES: • KIPPsters will be able to
explain the historical origins of modern chemistry.
• KIPPsters will be able to compare and contrast alchemy and modern chemistry.

“I can make a dollar bill come back to life aHer ligh2ng it on fire.”
• PARTNER DISCUSSION: In 30 SECONDS discuss whether or not this statement is true or false and EXPLAIN WHY!
• WRITE A PREDICTION: Write a predic6on as to what will happen when the dollar bill is lit on fire.
• Now, OBSERVE: Write observa6ons in the space provided!
WRITE (2 minutes) • FORM A HYPOTHESIS: Why do you think this happened?
Share your hypothesis with a partner! (3 minutes)
Mini-‐Lab: can metals be made from thin air?
What is chemistry?
In order to understand chemistry, you must understand alchemy
(LISTENING) • Turning everyday objects into gold • Obsession in Europe in the 16th and
17th century • A lot of literature was wri]en about
how metals formed in Earth • ArRsRc representaRon of alchemists
portray the fuRlity of their quest • Many alchemists were funded by the
royal families • People believed that alchemy could
present the cure to the bubonic plague
WRITE (2 minutes)
In your own words: • What was alchemy? • When was alchemy pracRced? • What was the moRvaRon for alchemy? • What were people’s a`tude towards alchemy?
• Was alchemy successful?
What is chemistry?
What is chemistry?
• Study of the changes in ma]er • Really exploring how to change the properRes of a substance
• FIRE! • Started as a philosophical debate about the basic “elements” that made up the natural world – Earth, wind, water, fire
• Experimental discovery of the elements
CW: WRITE (2 minutes)
• What are the similariRes and differences between alchemy and chemistry?
• How did the study of alchemy lead to the understanding of modern chemistry?
Share your theory with a partner!

Back to the Lab!
Back to the Lab! • DirecRons: Answer the following quesRons based on your
acRvity. Please answer in COMPLETE SENTENCES. 1. Compare the materials before and ager you put them
together.
2. If you think about the “old stuff” as the aluminum foil and copper chloride, do you think “new stuff” was made when you put them together? Explain your ideas.
3. How would an alchemist explain the results differently than a chemist?
HW • HOMEWORK 1.1 • Direc6ons: Read pages 20 and 21 from your text book and
answer the following ques6ons. 1. What contribuRons did the alchemists make toward the birth of chemistry? 2. What did the alchemists fail to do that chemists were successful in doing later in history? 3. How did Lavoisier help transform alchemy into what is known as modern-‐day chemistry? Provide a piece of evidence from the text that demonstrates one of Lavoiser’s contribuRons. 4. Lavoisier’s experiment led to the LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MATTER, in which ma]er (“stuff”) is neither created nor destroyed. Now, think back to your experiment from class today. According to this theory, the brownish-‐rusty stuff on your aluminum MUST HAVE COME FROM SOMEWHERE. State one idea as to where you believe that brownish substance came from. 5. What you experienced during lab today is known as a CHEMICAL CHANGE, in which ma]er changes into something completely different. List three examples of chemical changes that you have seen in your life.

“A science is any discipline in which the fool of this genera2on can go beyond the point reached by the genius of the last genera2on.” ~Max Gluckman, Poli%cs, Law and Ritual, 1965
