Week 2 (Aug. 25 - Aug. 29)

On the Tuesday and Wednesday, students in Honors Chemistry and MESA Chemistry did a measurement activity that reinforced the concepts of significant figures, precision/accuracy, and density calculations. On Thursday and Friday, we did some practice with unit conversions using dimensional analysis.

This week my AP Chemistry students worked through a practice test on Chapters 1-3. The test was taken on Thursday and Friday.

For next week, students in Periods 4, 5, 7, & 8 will be taking a practice test on Unit 1 that includes topics such as lab safety, scientific method, measurement, precision/accuracy, sig figs, density, percent error, & unit conversions. The Unit 1 Test will be on Thursday and Friday.

Students in AP Chem will be doing a lab on Tuesday and Wednesday in which they will determine the identity of an unknown metal carbonate. AP Chem students should read through Chapter 4 (Reactions in Aqueous Solution). You can expect to hear from me soon regarding your next Mastering Chemistry assignment.

E-mail me if you have any questions.
