Description
Use the unit of chemical bonding to introduce the question: "should soap be considered a basic human right?". Help students engage in social justice matters using their science background and making their learning relevant, relatable and culturally responsive by making personalized soap bars. They can keep, sell or donate the soaps as part of the unit. Students really enjoyed making their own soap and being able to use chemistry to answer big and important questions!

NGSSHS-PS1-3
Plan and conduct an investigation to gather evidence to compare the structure of substances at the bulk scale to infer the strength of electrical forces between particles. Emphasis is on understanding the strengths of forces between particles, not on naming specific intermolecular forces (such as dipole-dipole). Examples of particles could include ions, atoms, molecules, and networked materials (such as graphite). Examples of bulk properties of substances could include the melting point and boiling point, vapor pressure, and surface tension. Assessment does not include Raoult’s law calculations of vapor pressure.
