Week of April 28 to May 2, 2014

Return from vacation and changing the calendar from April to May.  You'd think the weather would be much warmer, but....    

Notice that I have lots of TBA for homework, so keep an eye on assignments that will "happen when they happen" during the week.


Chem-I (per 2,3,6):    

Monday:   Return of lab on hydrates.  Going over quiz on binary ionic compounds from before vacation.   Starting ternary ionic compounds and polyatomic ions.  HW:  TBA

Tuesday:   continuing with ternary ionic compounds and, probably, starting names/formulas for acids.  Right now the plan is for a sub-unit test on ionic compounds on block day.

Block day:   finishing ionic compounds/review;     Sub-Unit test.   Bring textbooks for work to be done after the sub-unit test is done.  HW:   Read/SSS Section 8-2 in text.  Do problems 13 through 21 on page 229. 

Friday:   going over sub-unit test.   Starting Molectular compounds.

Chem-IA (per 7):  

Monday:  Starting molecular compounds (second half of our current unit).   Properties, covalent bonding, diatomic molecules, coordinate covalent bonding, VSEPR.   HW is TBA (None)

Tuesday:  continuing with above concepts.  Making molecules.  Starting concept of Polarity.   HW:  finish worksheet on drawing molecules (if not finished during class time).

Thursday:   Finishing basics of molecular compounds and polarity.  "like dissolves like".   Intermolecular forces.  (note:  no lab activity this week).

Friday:  probable quiz on concepts from this week.
