Enjoy the Thanksgiving Break!

Here are some guidelines for you to think about.

AP Chemistry - I expect you to have read Chapter 8 and done the problems that were assigned to you from the book: 1, 3, 5(a-d), 7, 15, 17, 19, 23, 25, 31, 32, 33(a), 37, 39, 41, 43, 66, & 69. The Chapter 8 Review Guide can be found here.

Advanced Chemistry - You should review the stoichiometry problems that you were given in class on Tuesday. The stoichiometry handouts and answers can be found here.

Honors Chemistry - You should review the information about the KMT and Gas Laws. If you were absent from class and did not get the Ideal Gas Law and Gas Stoichiometry packet, you can find it here. In addition, the answers to this packet can be found here.

Today in Advanced Chemistry I began to teach about how different reactions are classified. Students have been balancing equations for several class periods. Now they are learning the terms "synthesis," "decomposition," single replacement," double replacement," etc.

In Honors Chemistry students took a quiz on Stoichiometry. Tomorrow I will begin a new unit on Gases. 

AP CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

Answer the questions from the MCQ related to Chapter 7, which can be found here.
Also, you can try to work on problems from the textbook located at the end of Chapter 7. Click here for answers to many of the odd-numbered problems from Chapter 7.

HONORS CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

Your homework is to work on the Stoichiometry Practice worksheet, which can be found here.
Answers to the packet on Stoichiometry Calculations can be found here.

ADVANCED CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

Your homework is to work on the balancing equations worksheet that you received in class today.
If you need help with this or you would like to check your answers, click here.

AP CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

Do the following problems from your textbook:
1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21

HOMEWORK

Advanced Chemistry
Your homework is to write the formulas for all the compounds listed on that "March Madness" worksheet. In each box, four compounds are covalent and four compounds are ionic.

Honors Chemistry
Study your notes on chemical reactions for tomorrow's quiz. Your will be expected to write chemical formulas from the chemical names, balance the equation using lowest possible whole numbers, and classify the reaction as being a synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, neutralization, or combustion.

ADVANCED CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

Review the shapes that we learned in class today. Be prepared to take a quiz that looks like this.

AP CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

Please read sections 7.2 and 7.4 in your textbook. Then do those worksheets to help you organize and understand the concepts of molecular geometry and orbital hybridization. If you want answers/help, you can look at the PowerPoint file located here.

HONORS CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

Soon I will post the answers to the Chemical Reactions packet that we have been working on.Your homework was to finish the last page of the packet, which tests you to see if you understand how to write, balance and classify chemical equations. I have posted the PowerPoint file that I was using in class here. It guides you through the process somewhat. E-mail me if you have questions! Have a good weekend!

ADVANCED CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

It would be a very good idea to review the PowerPoint file on Drawing Lewis Dot Structures, which I have posted here on my website. Today in class we practiced drawing the Lewis Dot structures for polyatomic ions. All of the answers to the Covalent Bonding packet can be found here.

Then we talked about molecular geometry and bond angles. Helpful Information can be found here and here.

The homework was to do the following assignment, which can be found here.

Please e-mail me if you have any questions! Have a great weekend!

AP CHEMISTRY HOMEWORK

Study for your Chapter 6 Test, which will be on Monday. Answers to the Chapter 6 Practice test have been posted here. Also, please read through Chapter 7, including the review guide, which has been posted here.

Honors Chemistry - Balancing Chemical Equations

Today we reviewed the midterm and then worked on balancing chemical equations. For the answers to the worksheet that was given out in class today (with 26 chemical reactions on it), click here.

Your homework is to write balanced chemical equations for problems 1 - 12 under the heading "Types of Chemical Reactions" from the packet that was given to you at the very end of class today.

Advanced Chemistry - Covalent Bonding

Today we reviewed the midterm and then worked on drawing Lewis electron dot structures for various covalent molecules. For homework, you should try to draw as many molecules as you can on the Covalent Bonding packet.

AP Chemistry - Chapter 6

On Friday we will review the answers to the Chapter 6 Practice Test, which can be found here.

If you need to review the answers to the Chapter 6 FRQ, you can find them here.
