Abstract Acid-base is one of the materials that tend to be difficult for students to understand. Acid-base is a material that is conceptually solid and requires an integrated understanding of many of the concepts of introductory chemistry. This research is descriptive research that aims to find conceptions of students on acid-base subjects and asking about concepts that are considered troublesome according to their learning experiences. The subjects of this research were 31 students of class XI IPA 4 at SMAN 3 Pariaman. The instruments in this research are diagnostic tests and interviews. The result of this research is the students of SMAN 3 Pariaman have difficulties in learning about the acid-base subject with high category. The percentage of conceptions experienced by students in each indicator is 56.3% of students understand the concept, 20.8% misconception, and 22.9% do not understand the concept. In the second indicator, 45.2% of students understood the concept, 18.3% had misconceptions and 36.5% did not understand the concept. In the 3rd indicator, 35.5% of students understood the concept, 31.2% had misconceptions and 33.3% did not understand the concept. In the 4th indicator, 21.9% of students understand the concept, 27.7% do not understand the concept and 50.3% do not understand the concept. Meanwhile, the acid-base theory, the calculation of pH or pOH, and the relationship between the degree of acidity (pH) and the degree of ionization (a), and the acid equilibrium constant (Ka) or the base equilibrium constant (Kb) are considered troublesome knowledge because they can be conceptually difficult.

The aim of this research were to know misconceptions and the category level of misconceptions in the second year students of SMA Negeri 2 Pekanbaru aboutt concepts of chemical equallibrium. This research took place in SMA Negeri 2 Pekanbaru and the data were collected on April 2017. was all the students of XI MIA class of four classes. The population consisted of 161 students. The sample was all the population. This research was descriptive quantitative. The technique of collecting data used diagnostic test and interview. The result showed that students found misconception in the definition concept of chemical equallibrium with the percentage was 34,78% (category of average), for the concept of heterogen and homogen was 36,335% (average), the concept of dissociation degree was 33,54% (average), the concept of Kc measurement was 43,785% (average), the concept of Kp measurement was 27,55% (poor), the principle concept of Le Chatelier was 36,764% (average), the concept of using chemical equallibrium in world industry was 23,60% (poor).

Preconception of the students influences to construct knowledge. They entered the classroom with conception formed from daily life. If their conception are not accordance with scientific concepts it’s  called misconceptions. Misconception is believed by students and used consistently. Teachers need to find out information on a student misconceptions by providing diagnostic tests immedietly. Diagnostic instrument that measure more accurately concepts understanding is isomorphic. Problem isomorphic composed of several question in different context and representation, but solved by the same principles. The goal of this study developing a multiple-choice diagnostic test instrument isomorphic to diagnose misconception of students on momentum and impulse. This study is research and development using ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development or Production, Implementation or Delivery and Evaluations). Development steps consist of: (1) Analysis, (2) Design, (3) Develop, and (4) Implement. Before  Implement steps, test instrument validated by lecture and two teachers. The instrument have been revised administered to students of class XI MIA 4 MAN Tlogo Blitar and  X MIA U1 MAN 1 Tulungagung. Results of this study are 15 items multiple choice diagnostic instruments isomorphic belongs five indicators. Based on the validation by two physics teachers and lecturers, instrument accordance used as a diagnostic instrument capable to distinguish between students misconceptions and naive concept. Around 67.8% of students who have answered the description are still misconceptions. Based on the test analysis accordance with open ended question instrument test diagnostic isomorphic produce higher accuracy by taking two of the three questions the answers provided.

Students’ writing can provide better insight into their thinking than can multiple-choice questions. However, resource constraints often prevent faculty from using writing assessments in large undergraduate science courses. We investigated the use of computer software to analyze student writing and to uncover student ideas about chemistry in an introductory biology course. Students were asked to predict acid–base behavior of biological functional groups and to explain their answers. Student explanations were rated by two independent raters. Responses were also analyzed using SPSS Text Analysis for Surveys and a custom library of science-related terms and lexical categories relevant to the assessment item. These analyses revealed conceptual connections made by students, student difficulties explaining these topics, and the heterogeneity of student ideas. We validated the lexical analysis by correlating student interviews with the lexical analysis. We used discriminant analysis to create classification functions that identified seven key lexical categories that predict expert scoring (interrater reliability with experts = 0.899). This study suggests that computerized lexical analysis may be useful for automatically categorizing large numbers of student open-ended responses. Lexical analysis provides instructors unique insights into student thinking and a whole-class perspective that are difficult to obtain from multiple-choice questions or reading individual responses.

Kesulitan peserta didik pada pemahaman materi termokimia melalui suatu proses pembelajaran berpotensi menyebabkan kesulitan peserta didik dalam memahami materi kimia yang lain. Untuk menghindari hal ini, maka perlu dicari letak kesulitan peserta didik dengan tes yang bersifat diagnostik agar dapat diketahui tingkat pemahaman dan kelemahan peserta didik dalam pembelajaran. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui karakteristik dan kualitas instrumen tes diagnostik pilihan ganda empat tingkat yang dikembangkan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Design Based Research (DBR) dengan model pengembangan yang diadaptasi oleh Reeves. Subjek dari penelitian ini yaitu peserta didik kelas XI MAN 2 Kota Semarang. Instrumen yang dikembangkan terdiri atas kisi-kisi soal tes, petunjuk pengerjaan tes, soal tes, kunci jawaban, pedoman penskoran, dan pedoman interpretasi hasil tes. Melalui uji coba yang dilakukan, instrumen tes diagnostik ini dinyatakan valid dan reliabel dengan nilai reliabilitas sebesar 0,985.

Misconceptions of a concept in a lesson will have an influence in understanding the next concept. Having misconceptions that exist in learning can understand the nature of the misconceptions and consequently can help student learning progress. Therefore, a diagnostic test for misconceptions is needed, including the newest four-tier multiple choice and five-tier multiple choice. This research is a literature review that provides information systematically using the PRISMA method which often occurs in students' misconceptions in high school physics subjects. The data for this research are 60 selected articles from 2017-2021. The purpose of this study is to reveal the use of four-tier multiple choice and five-tier multiple choice diagnostic tests in physics and also provide a comparison of each instrument with the strengths and weaknesses of the four-tier multiple choice and five-tier multiple choice diagnostic tests. Furthermore, the use of multiple choice four levels (83.33%) and multiple choice five levels (16.67). %). In the use of the four-tier multiple choice physical material diagnostic test, which are often used in identifying misconceptions, are optical devices (12%) and energy businesses (10%). And the use of an additional five-tier multiple choice instrument diagnostic test that is often used is to present an overview or conclusion at the fifth level. However, each type of four-tier multiple choice and five-tier multiple choice tests has its own advantages and disadvantages in assessing students' conceptions
