Abstract
The purposes of this study are to analyze the learning contents on the measurement of reaction rate which is introduced in the high school ‘science’ and ‘chemistry II’ textbooks, and to revise the experiment appropriate to the learning contents. We examined 11 kinds of ‘science’ textbooks, 8 kinds of ‘chemistry II’ textbooks and 11 kinds of teacher’s manuals used in Korea and additionally surveyed teachers’ opinions on this subject. Most of textbook and teacher’s manuals described that ‘the reaction rate generally decreases through the time’, teachers’ conception also agreed with it. But most of experimental activities in the textbooks were inadequate to explain the concept that the reaction rate generally decreases with time. We analyzed the reasons and revised the experimental condition to solve this disagreement between the description in textbooks and an experimental result. Then we compared improved experimental result and theoretical prediction data. The improved experiment in this study is expected to help to describe the conception of chemical reaction rate in the textbook more clearly.
