Curricular Statement Develop various dimensions of knowledge, process skills and attitudes on surface tension through experimentation, observation, group discussions and evaluation by questioning. Content Analysis Term: Surface Tension Facts Liquid surface acts like a stretched membrane. Soap dissolved in water can reduce the surface tension of water. Water droplets are spherical in shape due to surface tension. Concept Surface Tension: The molecules on the liquid surface are attracted only towards the sides and downward that its surface behaves like an elastic film. The force responsible for this is called surface tension. Learning Outcomes Enable the pupils to develop: 1. Factual knowledge on surface tension through a. Recalling the new terms like surface tension and facts and concepts mentioned in the content analysis b. Recognising the relationship between surface area and surface tension c. Explaining the surface tension and its applications 2. Conceptual knowledge about the surface tension through a. Recalling the molecular arrangement in the liquid surface b. Explaining the surface tension and the surface area of water droplets 3. Procedural knowledge on surface tension through executing the experiments and activities 4. Metacognitive knowledge on surface tension exhibited by the liquids through a. Recognising the force experienced on the liquid surface b. Devicing the procedure for analysing the relationship between surface tension and surface area 5. Different skills like a. Observing the experiments and their results b. Identifying the reduction in the surface tension of water when soap is dissolved in it c. Communicating within the group and to the class by discussing and presenting the group works 6. Scientific attitude towards surface tension and its applications in real life situations Pre requisites Students already know about the molecular arrangement in liquids. Teaching Learning Resources I. Experimental materials: soap solution, water, beaker, blade, metal ring and thread. II. Reference materials: 9 th standard physical science textbook published by SCERT Hand book (9 th SCERT) Classroom Interaction Procedure Pupils Response Preparation Show the students the picture of a water spider. Have you ever observed small insects moving around on the water surface? Do they float on the surface? Why they dont get sink in the water? What may be the reason behind it? Today let us discuss about it. Presentation Divide the students into different groups Activity 1 Give the students a beaker filled with water and a razor blade. Then ask them to place the blade on the water surface carefully and to note down their observations in the science diary. Generalisation Liquid membranes acts like stretched membranes and the force responsible for this is called surface tension. Activity - 2 Provide the students a breaker containing soap solution and ask them to place a razor blade on the surface of soap solution very carefully. Then ask them to observe the result and note down their inference in the
Yes. They float on the water surface
Blade float on the water surface
Blade get sink in the soap water
science diary. Generalisation Surface tension of water decreases when soap dissolves in it Activity 3 Take a thin plastic bangle and tie a cotton thread loosely across the ring away from the centre. Dip the bangle in soap solution and raise it slowly. Now ask the students to break the larger portion of the soap film between the bangle and the thread by using a sharp pencil tip. Write down your observations in the science diary after discussing in your group. Generalisation Surface tension tends to reduce the surface area of a liquid surface
Review 1. Define surface tension? 2. Why the liquid droplets are spherical in shape?
Students observe the experiment keenly.
Thread gets stretched into smaller area.
