General Chemistry:
Today we discussed the quiz from last Friday and then graded ALL of the conversion factors pages (whew!). We also discussed the LABS we will be doing tomorrow - one is a reaction lab, the other is a density lab.
Homework tonight is to finish p. 24-25 if you have not already done so and to read the background and questions that go with the lab for tomorrow (p. 27-32 in your binders).
LAB TOMORROW - COME PROPERLY ATTIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Advanced Chemistry:
We finished talking about Chapter 2 (well, almost in Block 4!) and assigned EOC problems. These include #1, 6, 10, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 21, 27, 29, 39, 42, (24 & 48 for extra credit) which start on p. 90 in the textbook. These are DUE FRIDAY. We also discussed the writeups for the first 3 labs - these are due NO LATER THAN TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 6th!!
Tomorrow is a work day for Chapter 2 problems and Chapter 1 issues that need help.
Thursday is another lab (Advanced Chemistry Lab #5 - % mineral in chocolate milk)
Friday = EOC's due for Chapter 2 and a CHAPTER 1 AND 2 QUIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!! Be ready!!
The purpose of this site is two-fold: (1) keep parents and students informed of day-to-day activities of the classes I teach and (2) provide additional/advanced/current information about chemistry for your enjoyment.
Have some fun!
