Colorful Chemistry



Here is a summary of today's activities in Period 2 (Adv. Chem.) and Period 4 (Hon. Chem.).

I collected the signed syllabus sheets, and then students took a lab safety quiz.  Today's lab experiment was on the density of colored liquids. Watch the YouTube video above.

Tonight's homework is to write a detailed procedure for determining the density of a liquid. Be specific! Be clear! Write your procedure in a way that someone could be able to follow your instructions.  Students took a math assessment today, which should help me determine what they can do and what I will need to teach. Math skills are definitely important in chemistry! Thanks to everyone for a great day. I look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow (Friday!)
