Introduction Slide(s) – include ALL components below:
- Molecule/substance Introduction
- The common and IUPAC name of your molecule/substance. Please see for help with scientific names if needed.
- Where you can observe your molecule/substance in society and/or in nature.
- A brief discussion on why you chose your molecule/substance.
- If possible, a picture and/or video of you safely observing your molecule/substance in the field. If you cannot safely observe it, please include a couple of images from the internet.
Description:
- You must include a physical description. You can use your personal observations from photographs. If you cannot safely observe your molecule/substance, you must research.
- Physical Characteristics (appearance, texture, color, odor, melting point, boiling point, density, solubility, polarity, etc.)
- Chemical description: You will need to research the chemical properties of your compound/molecule).
- Chemical Characteristics (stability in air or other environment, flammability, volatility, etc.)
Discovery:
- Describe the initial discovery of your molecule. Who discovered the molecule, when, how, etc.? Some compounds are part of a larger substance/plant. If this is the case, describe the isolation of your specific compound. The isolation refers to the initial time your molecule/substance was discovered from its raw materials or isolated from its .
- Usage and benefit or harm to society
- Where has your molecule/substance been used. Is it used regularly or is has it only been used on occasion? If your compound is one that we ingest when eating, include information on foods it’s commonly found in.
- Write about the benefit or harm to society caused by your molecule/substance. Many compounds can be used as bioweapons or have both positive and negative impacts. Other compounds have had benefits as medicines or have caused harm as illicit narcotics. All of these are good ideas to start out thinking about, so I’d like you to discuss these impacts on society, the future, and in any way you can think of that they may be beneficial or harmful. Please see here for some hints on .

- Internal citations: This is not just a separate section; rather, referencing should occur throughout the presentation via parenthetical citations any time you paraphrase, make direct quotes, or use visual components from other sources. Please be sure to cite any language, images, videos, etc. in the presentation that should be cited.
- Reference Slide: Your presentation should also have a final reference slide listing 5-10 credible sources researched for your presentation. NOTE: These are not included in the slide count for your presentation.
