MOLE PRACTICE

New Resources added to STUDY RESOURCES concerning the mole.  One from our online "Boundless" text and 2 video tutorials


Also under Application Exercises there are 2 separate groups of practice problems with Answers and Hints.


Enjoy your HOLIDAY.......

Balancing Equations Help

Under the study resources page is a video tutorial on balancing equations

Under the application exercises page is a link to practice problems

To the right (list of applets) is a new balancing equations applet.

Hope that helps.

SENSORS and PROBES

We have some pretty cool ways to collect data.  Here are some that COULD be used in the Ocean Acidification Project:

Carbon Dioxide Gas Sensor

pH Meter

Oxygen Gas Sensor

Conductivity Probe

Temperature Sensor


This Experimental Design Template will help in how you format your proposal.

NOW GO DO SOME RESEARCH ON OCEAN ACIDIFICATION and DESIGN an EXPERIMENT THAT MODELS IT!!!

Lewis Structure Homework

ATTEMPT TO DRAW the Lewis Structure


For


CO2


CH2O


N2


O2

All numbers are subscripts - blogger won't let me do that!

RAQ/tRAQ for Tuesday September 27th

We will be learning about IONIZATION ENERGY next.

Here is the Boundless section on Ionization Energy

Periodic Trend Video (only watch up to 4:35)

This video shows the "reactivity" of the Halogens (F, Cl, Br, and I).  Pay attention to the difference in reactivity....(note the Brits use prefixes when naming Ionic Compounds....that's a no no)

NAMING ACIDS Study Info

Here is a link to a description on naming acids.  There are some practice problems at the bottom to try out.

Acid Nomenclature

Also, here is a video...

RAQ/tRAQ for Tomorrow

Go to the naming tutorial under the study resources page and review the following:

• Binary Compound (Metal/Nonmetal) with Variable Charge Cation: Stock System

1. Given Formula, Write the Name
2. Given Name, Write the Formula

• Polyatomics (Metal with fixed or variable charge/Polyatomic)
1. Given Formula, Write the Name
2. Given Name, Write the Formula

Videos can also be utilized to the right of the page (videos 6-8)

Safety Lab TOMORROW - 9/7/2016

This is the lab we will be doing tomorrow.  Please review (you can print a copy if you need one).

SAFETY LAB

Resources to Review for Next Class

There is a link to the main Nomenclature (chem-speak for Naming things) Tutorial under the study resources tab. This resource is massive so I have placed specific links found on that sight below to make it easier to navigate.  Each link below can be found in the larger Nomenclature tutorial.

Please look at the following;

Naming BINARY COMPOUNDS with FIXED metal charges  (learn how to name simple ionic compounds)

Below is a video that accompanies the above link.

Naming BINARY COMPOUNDS with only NONMETALS (learn how to name covalently bonded molecules)

Below is a video that accompanies the above link.

Naming ACIDS (learn how to name acids)

Below is a video that accompanies the above link

A periodic table would be helpful.  You can find one here.
