Chemistry 12:  After a short review and some answers to the Electrolytic Cell Mini Review, we spent time on the Electrochemistry Practice Test.  Tomorrow we have a unit test on Electrochemistry.

Chemistry 11:  We marked WS #9, then wrote notes on Oxy Functional Groups.  For practice we completed Parts B and C.  Final exam review took up most of the rest of class.  We finished with a Quiz.

Chemistry 11:  After marking parts of Organic WS #6, we learned about Aromatics (rings containing  alternating single and double bonds).  We did Unit 10 # 29-31.  In the second half we learned about alcohol functional groups.  WS # 9 is due Wednesday.

Chemistry 12: We learned how to balance redox equations using the Change in Oxidation Number method, and we did U5 # 25 (any 6 problems).  After today, you can use either method to balance redox equation.  The Electrolysis minireview is due Wednesday.  On Thursday morning, we will have an Electrochemistry Unit Test.

Chemistry 12:  Today we watched How its Made videos on both Aluminum Smelting and Electroplating.  Well, nearly watched the second video.   We took notes on Electrolysis and Electroplating, read Unit 5.13, and did 64-66, 71, 73, and 80.  Due on Tuesday are the two labs, as well as the Hebdon problems.   Electrochem Test on Thursday. 

Chemistry 11:  After a short discussion on cis and trans isomers, we did Organic WS #6 which is due Tuesday.  Continue to work on the YER Review assignments one at a time.   Your Organic Test is on Monday. 

Chemistry 12:  We started off with a review WS on cell potential, followed by notes on Corrosion.  Due Monday is Unit 5 # 60-63.  Labs 21C and 21D are due on Tuesday, and your Electrochemistry Test will be on Thursday morning.

Chemistry 11:  Today we learned about Double and Triple Bonded hydrocarbons.    After reading Unit 10 Section 4 and writing notes together, we did WS #4 and spent time finishing Lab 6C.  There was a homework quiz at the end.  Your Organic Test will be on Monday, June 17th.

Chemistry 11:  We started with some review of percent composition and finding empirical formula, looking at SiO2 (quartz crystals).  pg 90 and 92 in Hebdon have the questions we did back in March on these skills, try a few for review.  A few examples on the board, and looking at the molecular model kit showed everyone about how to name and draw structures of cyclic hydrocarbons.  Read pg 222 -225 and do Unit 10 # 15 and 16, drawing every structure.   Finish Lab 6C, which is due Monday (all questions, follow-up questions, and a conclusion).  For those who had time, we started a year end review WS on the Moles Unit.  In the second half, we took notes on the names and structures of Haloalkanes, read 10.3, and did Unit 10 # 17-20.  All the textbook work is due Friday.

Chemistry 12:   Unit 5 # 47,48, 41-43.  Labs 21C and 21D are due Tuesday.  Test on Electro-chem on Thursday am.

Chemistry 12:  We finished the procedure for Lab 21C.  All the Questions and Calculations, and Follow-up Questions are required, but no Conclusion.  Lab 21D can also be finished now (all Questions, Follow-up Questions, and a Conclusion).  Don't worry about lab 20H, we will do the procedure of part II in one of our last classes.

Chemistry 11:  I collected unit 10 # 3-9.  Today we finished Lab 6C (all Questions, Follow-up Questions, and a Conclusion).  At the end we did a homework quiz on U10 # 3-9.

Chemistry 12:  Today we did Lab 21C, a Redox Titration.  We will continue on Tuesday with this lab.  You will find that 20G is marked.  Lab 20 H Part I is not yet marked, because I want to do Part II in one of the last few classes, as a review exercise.  Lab 21D is also ongoing, but I think we have all the skills needed to finish now so be sure to spend some time completing 21D.   I did not look at U3 # 36-40 & 44, which was due today.  Ensure that you are sinking time into your final exam preparation.

Chemistry 11:  Your product from Lab 6C is still not evaporated completely!  Today we did Unit 10 # 3-9, and make sure you draw every molecule.  Don't crowd your work:).  Tomorrow we will finish Lab 6C.  Ensure that you are sinking time into your final exam preparation.
