Another week done!

CHM 101

No homework over this weekend, since you had a test your lass class period.  We’ll continue on this week with chapter 4 in the textbook, where we’ll talk about the nature of the atom.

Reminder: Friday’s lab (the oxygen lab) will require proper lab dress (long pants and shoes that cover your whole foot, so don’t forget!

CHM 110 (01 and 02 – Monday/Wednesday sections)

You’ll get your test back on Monday, but I likely won’t have time to get the grades into D2L until after you get the test back.

We will continue in Chapter 2 this week with chemical nomenclature.  It’ll help if you’ve read the material in the book before we go over it in class.  It’s not overly difficult, but it will require some practice to get it right,

We will do Experiment 1C in lab, which is similar to the introductory lab but with actual statistics.  You’ll need a calculator for this one, and you will be required to record this experiment in your laboratory notebook, so don’t forget to bring it!

CHM 110 (03 – Tuesday/Thursday section)

You’ll get your test back on Tuesday morning.

We will likely finish up Chapter 2 and start Chapter 3 this week.  Chapter 3 teaches us chemical calculations.  If you learned the dimensiunal analysis method for the the first test, Chapter 3 will be a lot easier!

We will do Experiment 1C in lab, which is similar to the introductory lab but with actual statistics.  You’ll need a calculator for this one, and you will be required to record this experiment in your laboratory notebook, so don’t forget to bring it!

Another week done!

CHM 101

You have a test coming up n Wednesday 9/11, covering chapters 1, 2, 3, and 10.1-10.5 (energy).  We will finish up te material on energy on Monday, then use the rest of out class time ti discuss the test.

You will need your lab manual for labs from now on, so make sure you bring yours on Friday,

Edit (9/9):  I noticed the energy study guides on the CHM 101 study guides page wasn’t clickable.  That link has been fixed and the study guide should be accessable now..

CHM 110 (01 and 02 – Monday/Wednesday sections)

We have a test coming up on Wednesday 9/11.  The test in sections 1 and 2 will cover all of the first chapter, and up through section 2.6 in the second chapter (up through how to write ionic formulas).

This week will be out first lab experiment.  The experiment will be covered in a handout, so if you haven’t yet gotten your lab manual, you’ll be okay this week.  (That said, if you do have your manual, go ahead and bring it to lab with you.)  You will not be required to record this week’s experiment in your lab notebook.

CHM 110 (03 – Tuesday/Thursday section)

We have a test coming up on Thursday 9/12.  The test in section 3 will cover all of the first chapter, and up through section 2.8 in the second chapter (up through names and formulas of ionic compounds).  Don’t worry about organic compounds (section 2.7) at this point.

This week will be out first lab experiment.  The experiment will be covered in a handout, so if you haven’t yet gotten your lab manual, you’ll be okay this week.  (That said, if you do have your manual, go ahead and bring it to lab with you.)  You will not be required to record this week’s experiment in your lab notebook.
