SCH4U - Chemistry 12 (2024-25) - A

The understanding of the structures and properties of matter has led to the development of some of the most important technology in existence. In this lesson you will perform research to help you understand how this knowledge impacted specific technologies related to medical imaging and nanotechnology.

Learning Goals:

By the end of this lesson you will:

• Assess the benefits to society of technologies based on the principles of atomic and molecular structures.
• Evaluate the benefits to society and the environment of specialized materials created based on the structure of the atom and molecular structures.

Success Criteria:

I know I have achieved the learning goals when I can describe the benefits to society of technologies such as nuclear imaging and nanotechnology, which are related to the structure and properties of atoms and molecules.
