Friday 12.2.11

Welcome to December and the final 13 days of the term!!  :-)

General Chemistry:
Today we finished up our work learning the math of chemistry (a.k.a. stoichiometry) and took our weekly quiz.  We will check those on TUESDAY as I will not be here on Monday.  While the sub is here with you on Monday, you will have some bookwork to do with Chapter 10 (Gas Laws) so REMEMBER TO BRING  YOUR BOOKS ON MONDAY!!

AP Chemistry:
Today we took our weekly memorize me quiz (which now includes the reaction prediction equations) and graded the homework from Chapter 7.  We also discussed yesterday's lab which was a gas law lab (write-up due FRIDAY DECEMBER 9th!) and discussed what to expect for Monday's sub time.  As of now, the test over Chapter 7 will be on TUESDAY of next week and we'll dive into bonding (Chapters 9 & 10) starting on WEDNESDAY.  We will plan to finish that topic, test on that topic, and review for the final all before December 19th (along with doing/writing up at least one more lab!)  The AP students WILL have some chapters to work with over the holiday break... I will send home some 'guide sheets' for them to complete with the chapters which will hopefully assist them.
