Narrative Dialogue in English Between Students and Teachers With Five Elements of a Scientific Approach



TEACHER AND STUDENT DIALOGUE

One morning all the students were waiting for his desert in the classroom. That morning they will study chemistry with materials on basic laws of chemistry. Not long after they waited, his teacher entered the classroom and began to study.
Teacher            : "Assalamualaikum student."
Students            : "Waalaikumsalam miss."
Teacher            : "Well today we will learn about the basic laws of chemistry."
Student 1          : "Yes miss."
Teacher            : "The law of conservation of the masses in sparked by Lavoisier. He concludes that "If a chemical reaction is carried out in a confined space so that no substances are lost, the mass of the substances before the reaction and after the reaction is not reduced or does not increase." Is there any question? "
Student 2        : "Mis, I want to ask what is the difference from the law of conservation of energy and the law of conservation of the masses?"
Teacher            : "The good question, The law of conservation of energy is the amount of energy from a closed system that does not change and will remain the same. It can not be created or destroyed; But it can change from one form of energy to another. Thus, the difference from the law of conservation of mass and the law of energy kekealan namely mass conservation law discusses about the mass ofb a substance whereas energy conservation law discusses the energy generated from a substance. Does anyone still want to ask? "
Student 3          : "Miss I want to ask what is the example of the law of conservation of the masses?"
Teacher            : "In a closed tube weighed 32 grams of sulfur and 63.5 grams of copper. Once mixed and then heated in a closed tube and the reaction goes perfect then a new substance, namely copper (II) sulphide. Then the reaction (written on the board).


It turns out that the mass of the new substance is equal to the total mass of the substances before the reaction. Is there still something to ask? "
Students           : "No miss."
Teacher            : "If no longer want to be asked then the mother will continue the explanation of comparative law remains. The legal sound of fixed comparison is "In a compound, the mass ratio of the constituent elements is always fixed." This law was triggered by Proust. Are there any questions?"
Student 4          : "Miss I want to ask, what is the example of the fixed comparison law?"
Teacher            : " Okay please pay attention to this experiment data



In an experiment of 1 gram of hydrogen mixed with 8 grams of oxygen the result is 9 grams of water. And it turns out 8 grams of oxygen can only react with 1 gram of hydrogen alone. Have you done anything yet?

Students           : "It's miss."
Teacher            : "Okay then we end our meeting today. Do not forget to do exercise on page 321. Thank you for attention, Wassalamualaikum wr.wb.
Students           : "Waalaikumusalamwarahmatullahiwabarakatuh.”

5 SCIENTIFIC APPROACH

The first activity in the scientific approach is the observing step (observing). Students observe the object to be studied. Learning activities are reading, listening, listening, seeing (without or with tools). Competence developed is to train sincerity, thoroughness, seek information. In this case the teacher presents learning tools in the form of learning media. In observing activity, the teacher presents a video, image, miniature, impression, or original object. Students can be invited to explore about the object to be studied.
The second step in the scientific approach is questioning. The learning activity is to ask questions about information that is not understood from what is observed or questions to get additional information about what is observed (starting from the factual question down to the hypothetical question).
The third step in the scientific approach is associating (reasoning / processing information). The learning activity is firstly, the process of collecting information is either limited from the results of collecting / experimenting activities as well as the results of observing activities and gathering information activities; Secondly, the processing of information collected from that is to increase the breadth and depth to the information processing that is seeking solutions from various sources that have different opinions up to the contrary
The fourth step in the scientific approach is experimenting (trying). The activities undertaken are gathering information / experiments. The learning activities are experimenting, reading other sources besides textbooks, observing objects / events / activities, interviewing with resource persons. The developed competencies are to develop meticulous, honest, courteous, respectful of other people's opinions, ability to communicate, apply the ability to gather information through various ways learned, develop lifelong learning and learning habits.
The fifth step in the scientific approach is networking (networking). Networking is the activity of students to form networks in the classroom. The learning activity is to convey the results of observations, conclusions based on the results of analysis orally, written, or other media. Developed competencies are developing honest, meticulous, tolerant, systematic thinking skills, expressing opinions briefly and clearly, and developing good and correct language skills.

Using English to Show Cause and Effect




CAUSE AND EFFECT
Cause and effect is a relationship between events or things, where one is the result of the other or others. This is a combination of action and reaction.


CORROSION
A.    The Meaning of Corrosion
 In general, corrosion is the destruction of metal objects due to environmental influences. The corrosion process can be explained electrochemically, for example in the process of ironing which forms iron oxide (F2O3.nH2O). Electrochemically, the process of ironing is an iron oxidation event of iron by oxygen from the air.
Corrosion in iron due to contact with water. In the iron there is anode and there is a cathode.
            Anode             : F(s) → Fe2+ (aq) + 2e-                                             Eo = +0,44 V
Codes              : O2 (g) + 2H2O (l) + 4e- → 4OH- (aq)                     Eo = +0.4 V   
            Cell reaction    : 2Fe(s) + O2(g) + 2H2O(l) → 2Fe2 + (aq) + 4OH- (aq) Eo = +0.84 V


The Fe2 + ion then undergoes further oxidation by reaction:
Fe2+(aq) + O2(g) + (4 + 2n)H2O(l) → 2Fe2O3.nH2O + 8H+ (aq)
Based on the potential value of the reaction, iron is an easily corrosive metal. Other metals with electrode potential values ​​greater than 0.4 V will be difficult to corrosive, since they will produce Eoreact <0 (negative) when in contact with oxygen in the air. The metals of silver, platinum, and gold have electrode potentials greater than 0.4 V so it is difficult to experience corrosion.
B.    Causes of corrosion
1.     Water and air humidity
      Judging from the reaction that occurs in the corrosion process, water is one important factor for the ongoing corrosion. Humid air that contains moisture will accelerate the process of corrosion.
2.   Electrolyte
      Electrolyte (acid or salt) is a good medium for the transfer of charge. This results in the electrons being more easily attached to the oxygen in the air. Rain water contains acid, while salt water contains salt. Therefore rainwater and seawater are the main causes of corrosion.
3.    Uneven metal surfaces
      Uneven metal surfaces facilitate the occurrence of poles of charge, which will eventually act as anode and cathode. Smooth and clean metal surfaces will cause difficult corrosion, because the poles that will act as anode and cathode are difficult to form.
4.    The formation of electrochemical cell
      If two different metals are potentially tangent to the aqueous or moist environment, electrochemical cells may form directly. The lower potential metal will immediately release the electrons when in contact with a higher potential metal and will be oxidized by oxygen (O2) from the air. This results in faster corrosion occurring in potentially low metals, while potentially high metals are even more durable. For example, a rivet made of copper to connect iron would cause the iron around the rivet to rust more quickly.

C.    Corrosion Prevention
         Corrosion events are difficult to prevent, but can be inhibited in the following ways:
1. Controlling the atmosphere to keep it from moisture and plenty of oxygen, for example by making the air environment free of oxygen by passing CO2 gas.
2. Prevent metals intersect with oxygen in the air as well as water. Prevention is done in the following way.
a.   Paint it
        The paint layer prevents direct iron contact with oxygen and water. Only if the paint is scratched or peeling, then corrosion begins to occur and can spread under the paint that is still intact. Examples that use this technique are on boats, bridges and cars.
b.  Gives oil, oil or fat
The oil and grease layers prevent direct contact of iron with oxygen and water and should be applied periodically. Examples that use this technique are on the moving parts of the machine, like a car engine.
c.   Gives a plastic coating
The plastic layer prevents direct iron contact with oxygen and water. Only if the plastic is peeling off, corrosion begins to occur. Examples that use this technique are on kitchen items, such as dryer racks.
d.   Galvanizing
Galvanization is coating metal with zinc (for example, zinc roof). Zinc (Zn) coating can prevent direct metal contact with oxygen and water. In addition, the oxidized Zn, resulting in Zn (OH)2 can react further with CO2 in the air to form a very strong Zn(OH)2.xZnCO3 oxide layer. When Zn coating is scratched, Zn can still protect iron because Zn (Eo = -0.76 V) is more easily oxidized than Fe (Eo = -0.44 V). Examples that use this technique are on iron supports for building construction and bridges.
e.  Electroplating
Electroplating is metal coating with other metals using electrolysis method. For example, coating with nickel metal (veernikel), chromium (eg water tap), tin (eg food cans), and lead (eg drinking water pipes).
f.   Chrom plating / Cr
         The Cr layer prevents direct metal contact with oxygen and water. In addition, Cr is oxidized to form a very strong layer of Cr2O3 oxide that can protect the Fedi metal beneath it. When scratched, the Cr layers can still protect the iron because Cr (Eo = -0.74V) is more easily oxidized than Fe (Eo = -0.44 V).
g.   Tin plating / Sn
The Sn layer can prevent metal direct contact with oxygen and water. However, Sn (Eo = -0.14 V) is less reactive than Fe (Eo = -0.44 V). Thus, when the Sn layer is scratched, the iron underneath starts corrosion.
h.  Sherardizing
Sherardizing is reacting metal with phosphoric acid so that the metal surface is covered with phosphate (Fe3(PO4)2). For example, car body.
3.  Cathodic Protection
            Cathodic protection is made by connecting a metal to be protected by another metal having a very low electrode potential (usually Mg). When oxidation occurs, the protected metal will immediately attract electrons from the protective metal so that oxidation will take place on the protective metal. Because the protective metal is oxidized, it can eventually be exhausted and should always be replaced with new ones periodically.
