Exam 3 and Final Exam Review

You can use the exam review below for studying in preparation for both Exam 3 and the Final Exam (if necessary).  Enjoy...

DON'T FORGET EXAM 3 IS NEXT CLASS PERIOD (12.09-12.10)!

Exam 3 / Final Exam Review

Unit 5: Molecular Compounds

This unit deals with molecules, or compounds that are formed from covalent bonds.  It also includes some information about polyatomic ions, as they are just covalently bound groups of atoms carrying a charge.  Specifically, students are expected to be able to do the following things: (1a) describe how electrons are shared to form covalent bonds, (1b) write names and formulas for molecules, (1c) draw Lewis structures to show molecular structure, (2) use VSEPR theory to predict the true 3-D shapes of molecules, (3a) compare and contrast various intermolcular forces, (3b) determine the dominant intermolecular forces a molecule has based on structure, (3c) explain molecular properties arising from shape and dominant intermolecualr forces.

Names and Formulas of Compounds - Practice Module

Below you will find a site to practice names and formulas of compounds.  It will do Ionic and Molecular compounds, but lets you choose what you want to practice.  I would use it now and save it for further use with molecular compounds as well.  NOTE: Be sure to use the numbers at the top of the keyboard and not the number keypad to enter your subscripts.  It will automatically adjust the numbers you enter at the top to subscripts, but not from the keypad.

Reminder: Exam 2

Don't forget Exam 2 is occurring next class period (11.11 and 11.12)!

It covers information from units 1-4.  Unit 1 was about mole conversions, dimensional analysis, and significant figures.  Unit 2 was all about atomic theory, atomic models, electrons in atoms, and the wave nature of light and matter.  Unit 3 was about the periodic table and specific trends in properties observed for elements.  Unit 4 was about ionic and metallic bonding, ionic and properties, and the names and formulas of ionic compounds.  There is a review document below...I suggest you use it.

Periodic Trends Activity

Below is the instructions for the periodic trends and the data needed to complete the activity.  If you were absent you will need to be ready to take notes next class as the experts in each group share what they've learned about each of these properties of the elements.

Periodic Table Instructions

Below is the blank periodic table we started in class and the instructions for its completion.  The sooner these are done the better.

DON'T FORGET: QUIZ NEXT CLASS (10/02) and EXAM 1 MON/TUES (10/05-10/06)

Below is information about electrons in atoms.  This includes modern ideas about their movements and energies within atoms (Bohr and Schrodinger Models), electron configurations, and the nature of electromagnetic radiation.

Flame Test Lab

Below is the video made of this experiment a couple of years ago.  Also there is a make up lab document.  Follow the instructions on the document and use the video to make your observations.

Make Up Lab Document

Isotopes, Atomic Mass, Brief Atomic History

Below you will find notes, Objective Practice problems, and isotopes/atomic mass practice problems. The practice problems are not due for a grade, however it is recommended that you use them to study for your quizzes.

REMINDER: Quiz 2.1 NEXT CLASS [09.23 - 09.24] (objectives 1-3 on practice problems)

Items that have already been due this unit: Aluminum Lab (09.21 - 09.22), Candium Lab (09.21 - 09.22), Scientist "mini-book" (09.21 - 09.22)

Scientist Notes: Supplemental

Objective Practice Problems

Isotopes and Average Atomic Mass Practice

Look below for atomic models as well...

Atomic History and Atoms Basics

BY NEXT CLASS...create a mini-book about the four scientists you discussed with your group in class today.  Fold a piece of printer paper in half to create four pages, and each page should have one of the scientists on it.  The following information should be included for each.

• experiment name (if applicable)
• experiment diagram (labeled)
• list of observations made and interpretation of each
• resulting atomic model (if applicable)
• resulting particle or particle property (if applicable)

We will be doing a small lab activity next class followed by a small assessment over the material we have been discussing in class the last couple of days (not the scientists yet).  We will be discussing electrons in greater detail over the next week, so be ready!

Atom Basics Notes

Aluminum Lab and Additional Conversion Practice

Below is the aluminum lab and a few hints to get this done if you haven't already. It is due by Friday (09/18).

Hint #1
Volume = l x w x t (t is thickness)

Hint #2
D = density = m / v

Hint #3
You are basically finding me how many aluminum atom "bricks" it takes to build a wall of aluminum atoms as thick as the aluminum foil...

ADDITIONAL CONVERSION PRACTICE
Below is the link to the additional conversion practice.  Remember this is optional unless you were told differently in class.  Those that were directed to complete it, it is due by 09/24 at the latest.

Additional Conversion Practice

Dimensional Analysis

We have been doing dimensional analysis with various types of conversions the last week or so.  Below you will find some notes concerning this topic as well as some other instructional aides (videos, practice quiz, etc) for use with this unit.

Intro to Scientific Measurement

We have been talking about (and will continue to talk about in the coming days) scientific measurement.  This includes both the taking of measurements and their manipulation with calculations.  Below you will find the classwork/homework packet for unit 1.  You will also find a link for the notes, but it won't be active immediately.  I will complete that link closer to the end of the unit.  If you have been absent contact me for a full copy of the notes if necessary.

Measurement Notes

Unit 1 Problem Packet

You will have a lab next class period.  Lab documents can be found by clicking the "Lab Documents" link at the top of the page.  This will take you to a collection of all lab documents we have used.  Please be sure you are prepared with appropriate dress, etc on lab days.

Important Documents

Below are some important documents that you may need if your copies become misplaced, etc.

Welcome 2014-2015

Welcome back to school and into the great adventure known as chemistry!  I trust you had a relaxing, albeit short, summer vacation.  We will hit the ground running so I wanted to make a few documents available ASAP.  These will be coming in another post in the near future.
