TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. Effects of the Depression

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. Between 1921–1929, the unemployment rate never rose above 4 percent. By 1933, however, it was near 25 percent. Those who managed to keep their jobs had their wages and hours cut. Few Americans understood the causes of the Great Depression, but everyone felt the impact.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. Between 1930 and 1934, nearly a million farmers lost their farms, homes, and farm equipment because they could not pay their mortgages.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. The remaining farmers on the Great Plains suffered a terrible drought, which led to the Dust Bowl.

TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas. Family life was hurt by the Great Depression. Some teens ran away, and families broke up. America’s birthrate fell to its lowest level on record. Those who were still working felt guilty because friends and relatives were unemployed. Those who still had jobs lived in fear that their next paycheck would be their last.

As Okies moved west to find work, Mexicans and Mexican Americans faced fierce competition for jobs. Local governments urged repatriation for Mexican Americans. Even in good times, African Americans were “last hired and first fired.” Many were thrown off southern farms where they were sharecroppers.
