1 THE HOUSTON MUSEUM OF NATURAL SCIENCE ONLINE CURRICULUM WIESS ENERGY HALL 9 TH GRADE 12 TH GRADE GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED BY PWC
2 Dear Educator, Thank you for downloading the free, online curriculum available at HMNS! We re thrilled to see that you are including the world-renowned Houston Museum of Natural Science in your educational toolkit. Here at HMNS our mission has always been to provide exemplary educational opportunities for the community. Providing educators like you with free curriculum is just one of many ways we are fulfilling that mission. Thank you again, and we hope you enjoy your field trip to HMNS! Best, The HMNS Staff How to use this guide: 1. This curriculum unit is structured to begin at the main entrance to the Wiess Energy Hall (1 st floor) and work through the hall. 2. Please ensure that one chaperone is with every group of ten students at all times as they complete these activities. Please direct any and all questions to 1
3 TEKS Objectives Each of the following Science TEKS Objectives are met as students explore the Wiess Energy Hall: Aquatic Science 3(A, B, D), 4(A, C), 6(A), 9(C), 11(A), 12(A, B) Biology 3(A, B, D), 9(B), 11(C), 12(C, D, F) Chemistry Earth and Space Science Environmental Systems 1(C), 2(G, H, I), 3(A, B, C, E, F), 5(A), 8(A, B, C, D, E), 10(I, J), 11(A, B, C), 12(C) 1(B, C), 2(F, H, I), 3(A, B, D, E, F), 4(A), 5(A), 6(D), 9(A, B, C), 10(A, B, C, D, E), 11(B, C, D, E), 12(A, B, C, D, E), 13(C, D, F) 1(B), 2(J, K), 3(A, B, D, E), 4(C), 5(B, C, D, E, F), 6(B, C, D, E), 7(C), 8(A), 9(E, I, J) Integrated Physics & Chemistry 1(B), 3(A, B, C, E, F), 5(B, C, D, E, H, I), 6(A, C, D), 7(D, E, F) Physics 1(B), 2(J, K), 3(A, B, D, E, F), 5(D, G), 6(B, D, E, G), 7(A, F), 8(D) At the Museum Introduction Energy is a part of everything we do. In today s world, the petrochemical industry has become integrated into almost every aspect of the modern world: transportation, food preparation, electricity, medicines, plastics, and much more. In the Wiess Energy hall, students will learn how oil is formed in the earth as well as the drilling and refining process that allows us to use it in our daily lives. 2
4 At the Museum Video: Formation At the entrance to the Energy Hall, watch the movie Formation. The movie states there was, a super thermal radiation of unimaginable scale. What is this theory called? What is the origin of all energy on Earth? Video: Energy Is As you enter the Hall go to the right, enter the theatre and watch the movie Energy Is How do petroleum engineers find pockets of oil? What three things are going to get used up? List three renewable sources of energy. 3
5 Electricity is the constant flow of. What two things does natural gas make? Sedimentation Observe the particles as they flow into the water. Which will settle to the bottom the heavier or lighter particles? Watch the movie Birth of a Reservoir. What causes the heat which cooks the organic matter and forms oil and gas? Hydrocarbon Traps Use the computer screen to see the different kinds of rock on the wall. Read What Kinds of Rock are Here? List the four types of rocks. 4
6 Exploration In the exploration section you will see a diorama of two geologists in a remote mountainous area. Press the red button to see what they have to say. Describe the job of a geologist. List three sources of oil deposits Drill Heads Observe the drill heads used to bore holes in solid rock. Some differ in their shape, but others differ in the material they are made from. Why might diamonds be very useful in grinding rock? What other materials might work well when used in a drill? Seismic Section What is a bright spot? 5
7 Geovator thehoustonmuseumofnaturalscience Ride the Geovator to experience what it would be like to be a drill bit. How deep does the bit go into the Earth? What is the pay zone? Energy Excursions Theater Watch the movie and list the main sources of energy. What is the difference between renewable energy and alternative energy? List the types of alternative energies covered. 6
8 Choose two sources of energy and describe which of the two has the greater economic/environmental impact. Use at least three reasons in your argument. Getting a Reaction Near the end of the hall, you will see a crank wheel. Turning this wheel in an allotted time will measure your mechanical energy against the energy created by the combustion of gasoline. How much energy can you produce compared to gasoline? Hydrocarbons, like gasoline, can be burned in the presence of air to create water, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and heat (energy). While this reaction is not always ideal due to contaminants and limiting factors, the simplified equation is CH4 + O2 H2O + CO2 + CO Energy 1. Balance the chemical equation above. 7
9 2. If 5L of CH 4 gas (simplified representation of our hydrocarbons) undergoes complete combustion, how many liters of carbon dioxide gas are produced? (1L = 22.4 moles) 3. Research how many barrels of oil are consumed by a specific country during the period of one year. Assuming that one barrel is 150 liters and the combustion follows the simplified equation above, how much CO 2 gas is released each year from hydrocarbon burning? 8
