PLEASE HELP Step 5: Review and revise your prediction and explanation.
a) First, review your initial prediction and explanation by comparing it to your Lewis dot diagrams. If
the results of your Lewis dot diagrams are different from your initial prediction, you will need to
revise your prediction and explanation. See Step 5d.
b) Next, review your prediction and explanation to determine whether they adhere to the law of
conservation of mass. If they do not, you will need to revise your prediction and explanation so
that mass is conserved. See Step 5d.
c) Finally, determine whether your explanation addresses trends in the periodic table and how they
can be used to predict outcomes of chemical reactions. If it does not, you will need to revise your
explanation to include a discussion of periodic trends and how they help predict the outcomes of
chemical reactions. See Step 5d.
d) Write your revised chemical reaction on the same paper as your initial chemical reaction and
your Lewis dot diagrams. Label the equation “Revised Prediction.” Write your revised explanation
below your initial explanation in the same document. Label it “Revised Explanation.” Be sure that
your revised explanation includes all of the information necessary to address Step 3b and
Steps 5a–c.
