Abstract

Following a summary of the literature on misconceptions encountered in chemistry, the present research investigated the sophomores' understandings and misunderstandings of acid and base concepts in a high school. The sample of the study consisted of 150 sophomores enrolled in a high school in Trabzon, Turkey. A 25 item, 3 section test was developed to measure the concept of acids and bases. The test was administered to the sample and each section was analyzed individually. Results showed that students did not have an adequate level of understanding of the concepts studied. Some of the misconceptions students showed were acids can harm everything, we can form salt by pouring water into acids.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, kimyada karşılaşılan kavram yanılgıları ile ilgili bir literatür özetinden sonra özel olarak asitler ve bazlar konusu ile ilgili lise II öğrencilerinin anlama seviyeleri ve yanlış anlamaları belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmaya Trabzon ilinde bulunan bir lisenin ikinci sınıflarında öğrenim gören toplam 150 öğrenci katılmıştır. Öğrencilerin asitler ve bazlarla ilgili anlamalarını belirlemek amacıyla 25 soruluk bir test geliştirilmiş ve uygulanmıştır. Üç farklı tipte soru içeren testin her bir bölümü ayrı ayrı analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda öğrencilerin konu ile ilgili yeterli bir anlamaya sahip olmadıkları ve Asitler her şeye zarar verebilir, asit içerisine su döktüğümüzde tuz oluşur şeklinde, kavramlarla ilgili yanlış anlamalar taşıdıkları tespit edilmiştir.
