By the end of this unit you will be able to:

• Calculate measures of central tendency and percentiles on grouped data.
• Construct a frequency polygon.
• Construct a line graph.

This video explores how to find the mean from data in a table.

This video explores the histogram: which is one of the ways in which to present data.

Food webs are models that demonstrate how matter and energy is transferred between producers, consumers, and decomposers as the three groups interact within an ecosystem. Transfers of matter into and out of the physical environment occur at every level. Decomposers recycle nutrients from dead plant or animal matter back to the soil in terrestrial environments or to the water in aquatic environments. The atoms that make up the organisms in an ecosystem are cycled repeatedly between the living and nonliving parts of the ecosystem.

This video explains how pie charts can be used to display data in a more 'user-friendly' way.

This video explains how to plot straight line graphs.

Outcomes:

• Determine if a liquid is acidic, basic, or neutral
• Place acids or bases in relative order
• Describe on a molecular scale, with illustrations, how the water equilibrium varies with pH
• Determine concentration of hydroxide, hydronium and water at a given pH
• Relate liquid color to pH
• Predict (qualitatively and quantitatively) how dilution and volume will affect the pH and concentration of hydroxide, hydronium and water
