基于变构学习模型的高中化学“导致悖论”教学设计*

“导致悖论”教学是一种智在创境、妙在引领的教学,其核心理念源自于变构学习模型的悖论思想,给学习者创造一个“肯定→否定→肯定”的反思性学习过程。高中化学教学设计可以通过4种途径分别创设“概念与概念”相悖、“理论与实验”相悖、“理论与理论”相悖和“实验与实验”相悖的悖论情境,最终实现学生新旧概念的更替和高阶思维能力的发展。“导致悖论”教学在实施中要注意精选合适的知识内容,加强学生心理的调控,提供丰富的支撑材料。

模型素材差异对初中生“分子和原子”概念认知水平的影响

以“分子和原子”3堂同课异构课为载体,阐述了模型素材差异对学生概念认知水平的影响。通过控制变量法以及采用“前测问卷-课堂授课-课后测试-访谈问卷”的研究方法,得出以下结论:(1)教师采用教育的类比模型进行教学更有利于学生对“分子”“原子”概念的建构,采用图像和符号模型进行教学更有利于学生“从微观角度解释物理变化、化学变化”概念的建构。(2)从知识来看,使用图像和符号模型组织教学整体来说能帮助学生对“分子和原子”的概念建构到更高水平。从建模能力来看,使用图像与符号模型教学更能培养学生的图像识别与描述能力,使用教育的类比模型教学更能培养学生的动手能力和空间建模能力。(3)同时使用2种模型进行教学时学生对概念建构的程度最好,概念建构所达到的水平也更高。同时,研究对教材的编写、教师的教以及学生的学提出了一些建议。

国际科学教育视角下1-9年级学生“物质”核心概念进阶维度研究

Methyl­malon­amide and ethyl­malon­amide

In the title compounds, C₄H₈N₂O₂, (I), and C₅H₁₀N₂O₂, (II), respectively, the amide groups are rotated out of the central C—C—C plane by ca 76° in (I) and by 70–73° in (II). Compound (I) has crystallographic mirror symmetry perpendicular to the molecular plane.     

Di­methyl­phenyl­sulfonium tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate and methyl­di­phenyl­sulfonium tri­fluoro­methane­sulfonate

The bonding geometry of sulfur in the cations of the title compounds, C₈H₁₁S⁺·CF₃SO₃^? and C₁₃H₁₃S⁺·CF₃SO₃^?, respectively, is similar and is independent of the ratio of the Me/Ph substituents. As expected, in both cations, the S—Ph bonds are somewhat shorter than the S—Me bonds. In both crystal structures, the interaction between cations and anions is similar.     

Heat capacities and absolute entropies of UTi<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>6</Subscript> and CeTi<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>6</Subscript>

Summary As part of a larger study of the physical properties of potential ceramic hosts for nuclear wastes, we report the molar heat capacity of brannerite (UTi₂O₆) and its cerium analog (CeTi₂O₆) from 10 to 400 K using an adiabatic calorimeter. At 298.15 K the standard molar heat capacities are (179.46±0.18) J K^-1 mol^-1 for UTi₂O₆ and (172.78±0.17) J K^-1 mol^-1 for CeTi₂O₆. Entropies were calculated from smooth fits of the experimental data and were found to be (175.56±0.35) J K^-1 mol^-1 and (171.63±0.34) J K^-1 mol^-1 for UTi₂O₆ and CeTi₂O₆, respectively. Using these entropies and enthalpy of formation data reported in the literature, Gibb’s free energies of formation from the elements and constituent oxides were calculated. Standard free energies of formation from the elements are (-2814.7±5.6) kJ mol^-1 for UTi₂O₆ and (-2786.3±5.6) kJ mol^-1 for CeTi₂O₆. The free energy of formation from the oxides at T=298.15 K are (-5.31±0.01) kJ mol^-1 and (15.88±0.03) kJ mol^-1 for UTi₂O₆ and CeTi₂O₆, respectively.     

Exo Diels–Alder adducts between ortho‐ and para‐N‐acetoxy­phenyl­male­imides and furan

In exo‐2‐(3,5‐dioxo‐10‐oxa‐4‐aza­tri­cyclo­[5.2.1.0^2,6]­dec‐8‐en‐4‐yl)­phenyl acetate, C₁₆H₁₃NO₅, the plane of the acetoxy group lies almost perpendicular to that of the phenyl ring [dihedral angle = 89.8 (1)°], in contrast with the smaller deviations found in the para isomer exo‐4‐(3,5‐dioxo‐10‐oxa‐4‐aza­tri­cyclo­[5.2.1.0^2,6]­dec‐8‐en‐4‐yl)­phenyl acetate, C₁₆H₁₃NO₅, these being 63.6 (1) and 37.0 (1)° for the two crystallographically independent mol­ecules. Irrespective of the position of the acetoxy group, both compounds pack through soft C—H⋯X (X is O or phenyl) interactions, forming interlinked centrosymmetric tetramers in the bc plane.     

Synthesis and characterization of Mn-, La-Mn- and La-Ca-Mn-citrates as precursors for LaMnO<Subscript>3</Subscript> and La<Subscript>1−x</Subscript>Ca<Subscript>x</Subscript>MnO<Subscript>3</Subscript>

Mn-, LaMn- and LaCaMn-citrates were synthesized at 60–120°C in ethylene glycol medium using chlorides or nitrates as metal sources. Their composition, IR spectra and thermal decomposition were studied. Equimolar La/Mn ratio has been established in the complex, prepared from chloride solution with the same initial composition of the metals. In the isolated three-metallic complex the molar ratio of the metals deviates from the composition in the initial solution. The final products of the heating of Mn- and mixed-metal LaMn-citrates at 1000°C are phase-homogeneous Mn₃O₄ (hausmannite) and LaMnO₃ respectively. Parasitic phase(s) are observed in La_xCa_1−xMn_yO₃, produced from LaCaMn-citrate.     

2,4,6‐Tri­chloro­phenyl­iso­nitrile and 2,4,6‐tri­chloro­benzo­nitrile

The molecular structures of the title compounds, 2,4,6‐tri­chloro­phenyl­iso­nitrile (IUPAC name: 2,4,6‐tri­chloro­phenyl isocyanide), C₇H₂Cl₃N, and 2,4,6‐tri­chloro­benzo­nitrile, C₇H₂Cl₃N, are normal. The two structures are not isomorphous, but do contain similar two‐dimensional layers in which pairs of mol­ecules are held together by pairs of Cl?CN [3.245 (3) Å] or Cl?NC [3.153 (2) Å] interactions. The two‐dimensional isomorphism is lost through different layer‐stacking modes.     

Interatomic interactions and electronic structure of NbSe<Subscript>2</Subscript> and Nb<Subscript>1.25</Subscript>Se<Subscript>2</Subscript> nanotubes

Atomic models of achiral NbSe₂ nanotubes are suggested. Band structure calculations have been performed to investigate the electronic structure and determine the parameters of interatomic interactions. The distribution of the density of states and pair bond occupancies of NbSe₂ nanotubes are analyzed in relation to the type of the atomic configuration and the tube diameter; the results are compared with the band structure of the 2H-NbSe₂ crystal. Calculations have been carried out on hypothetical superstoichiometric nanotubes with a formal composition Nb_1.25Se₂ as possible quasi-one-dimensional nanoforms of autointercalated niobium diselenide.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by A.

Ethyl­tri­phenyl­phospho­nium perrhenate and (iodo­methyl)­tri­phenyl­phospho­nium perrhenate

Ethyl­tri­phenyl­phospho­nium perrhenate, (C₂₀H₂₀P)[ReO₄], and (iodo­methyl)­tri­phenyl­phospho­nium perrhenate, (C₁₉H₁₇IP)[ReO₄], have been crystallized from 2‐propanol. Both crystal structures consist of phospho­nium cations and perrhenate anions. The cations show the typical propeller‐like geometry. In both crystals, the positions of the nearly tetrahedral anions are stabilized by weak C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, and for the latter compound, I⋯π interactions also occur.     

Eu<Superscript>3+</Superscript>-doped LaPO<Subscript>4</Subscript> and LaAlO<Subscript>3</Subscript> nanosystems and their luminescence properties

Eu³⁺ ion-doped LaPO₄ nanowires or nanorods have been successfully synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method. The influence of varying the hydrothermal and subsequent sintering conditions on the morphology and structure of the LaPO₄ host has been investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). For comparison, the Eu³⁺ ions were also doped into monoclinic monazite LaPO₄ nanoparticles and perovskite LaAlO₃ nanoparticles. The relative intensities of the emission lines of the LaPO₄:Eu³⁺ nanosystems were essentially independent of their shape. The optimal doping concentrations in the monoclinic LaPO₄ and perovskite LaAlO₃ nanosystems were determined to be about 5.0 and 3.5 mol%, respectively. Under appropriate UV-radiation, the red light emitted from LaAlO₃:Eu³⁺ (3.5 mol%) was brighter than that from LaPO₄:Eu³⁺ (5.0 mol%) nanomaterial, resulting from differences in their spin-orbit couplings and covalence, which indicates that the nanoscale LaAlO₃ is a promising host material for rare earth ions.

Thermal oxide synthesis and characterization of Fe<Subscript>3</Subscript>O<Subscript>4</Subscript> nanorods and Fe<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> nanowires

Fe₃O₄ nanorods and Fe₂O₃ nanowires have been synthesized through a simple thermal oxide reaction of Fe with C₂H₂O₄ solution at 200–600°C for 1 h in the air. The morphology and structure of Fe₃O₄ nanorods and Fe₂O₃ nanowires were detected with powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The influence of temperature on the morphology development was experimentally investigated. The results show that the polycrystals Fe₃O₄ nanorods with cubic structure and the average diameter of 0.5–0.8 μm grow after reaction at 200–500°C for 1 h in the air. When the temperature was 600°C, the samples completely became Fe₂O₃ nanowires with hexagonal structure. It was found that C₂H₂O₄ molecules had a significant effect on the formation of Fe₃O₄ nanorods. A possible mechanism was also proposed to account for the growth of these Fe₃O₄ nanorods.
