A50-P: When Less is Not More: A Phenomenographic Investigation of High School Teachers’ Storyboards
Bulk water is an essential component for dissolution-the process in which ionic compounds are broken down into constituent charged species. Water solvates ions, engages in hydrogen bonding, exerts electrostatic forces, and contributes to the effects of entropy and enthalpy. Despite bulk water’s importance, its submicroscopic presence is often omitted from high school instructors’ pedagogical practices. […]
