General Chemistry:
Today we got new seats, checked the quiz from Friday (grades are updated in Campus), took notes over Periodic Trends (p. 140 in the textbook), and then honored President's Day by cleaning pennies with ketchup (yes, it works) and making hollow pennies. For tomorrow, please have done p. 105 in the binder #'s 4-12 only. If you want, you can try p. 107-108... those will be tomorrow's homework.
Tomorrow, we will finish up the periodic table information and review EVERYTHING. Wednesday we will take the District Assessment on the Periodic Table. Thursday we start our next topic... bonding!
AP Chemistry:
For those few present, we worked through a VAST majority of the problems for Chapter 17 (#'s 23-63). Your TEST over Chapter 17 is TOMORROW!!
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!
