Week of Jan 27 to Jan 31, 2014

Sorry about the delay in posting the blog for this week.  To be honest, this week will be very "fluid" as I get the feel for understanding.  Therefore, per usual..... any/all assignments/due dates/etc.... are very much subject to change and/or adjustment.  Keep an eye on the assignment board.

Reminder that Friday will be shortened periods due to a Pep Rally.

Chem-I:   per 2,3,6

Monday:   went over midyear exam and introduced Electron Configurations (3 Rules:  Aufbau, Pauli Exclusion, Hund's) and talked about buses.  HW for Tuesday.  NONE.

Tuesday:  Quick Review of the three rules.  Filling in Electron Configuration diagram with examples and, most importantly, learning the relationship to the periodic table.

Block Day:   Filling in a fresh, new Electron Config Diagram.   Learning how to use it with lots of examples.   Bringing back Quantum Numbers for specific elements.   We will be doing a worksheet of problems in class.   NOTE ASSIGNMENT DUE MONDAY:    Read/SSS section 6-1 and do questions on page 181 numbers 24 through 29.   There will (probably) be a quiz on Friday on Electron Configs and Quantum Numbers.

Friday (shortened periods):   Quiz.   NOTE ASSIGNMENT FROM 6-1 due monday...see above.


Chem-IA (per 7)

Monday:   we went over mid-year exam.  Afterwards worked on assignment from 6-1 (due Tues).

Tuesday:  Starting 3E on the periodic table:   special terms/names related to per table,  periodic table game, possibly starting Keynote 3E.  NO HW FOR THURS.

Block Day:   Continuing (or starting) Keynote 3E and transitioning into a lab activity.   For Friday:  Probably a quiz on 3 E to-date. 

FRiday:   probable quiz.

NOTE:    there will be a Sub-Unit test on 3E next week (I think)


Chem-II: (per 1)

Monday:  went over midterm.  Working on graphing lab on Solub of KCl. 

Tuesday:  starting the mathematics of solutions:  Percent Solutions with examples.  Homework is to finish "worksheet 1" on percent solutions.

Block Day:   reviewing percent solutions.  Covering Molarity.  Finishing Lab.  Possibly covering dilutions.   Doing Worksheet #2.

Friday:   Possible Quiz on Solutions. (moved to Monday)

NOTE:   Unit test next week (prob on Friday) on chapters 15 and 16.
