The webassign question we did in class. Really did have a work factor. Solve for the number of moles use q was correct. There is a volume change assume all the moles convert to gas, using PV=nRt solve for the volume. Then plug back in for -PDV for work. Then solve for E

short review for test on Tues. Nov. 6;
Work in POGIL groups in Moog and Farrell Workbook: chemactivities #13 (Lewis Structure I),14 (Lewis Structure II)

nice site with AP study cards and a 2 page stuff to know put into your reference section for the AP test and any other unit tests: http://chemmybear.com/

AP reference sheets to use on tests print p.4-5 http://www.collegeboard.com/prod_downloads/student/testing/ap/chemistry/ap07_chemistry_frq.pdf

Next unit Bonding Ch.8

  • Read and Outline Ch. 8 pp. 369-402.

Work in POGIL groups in Moog and Farrell Workbook, Bring books and Lab report on Hess' Law

Test on Ch. 5, 6, 16

HW: Finish the last Entropy chemactivities to go over in class.

October 26, 2007

Work in POGIL groups in Moog and Farrell Workbook: chemactivities #Chemactivities # 34 Enthalpy of Atom Combination, #35 Enthalpy Changes in Chemical Reactions

HW

work on the handouts and Lab report, we will go over, put in about 1.5 hrs on the material, you should have read all of ch. 5 and 6 and some of Ch. 16, we will work more on this material in class.

as follows:

  • Read and Outline Zumdahl pp.256-260:
  • Problem Set 3 pp. 284, Hess' law: : 51,53.
    Read and Outline Zumdahl pp.260-267:
  • Problem Set 4 pp. 285, Std. Enthalpy of Formation: pp. 285: 59, 61, 65
  • Read and Outline Zumdahl Ch. 16 pp. 791-803.
    Problem set 6: p. 828 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 21, 23, 25
  • Read and Outline Zumdahl Ch. 16 pp. 803-815.
    Problem set 7: p. 829 27, 29, 31, 33, 35
    Problem set 8: 37, 39,43,45,49

Nothing is due and I do not plan a quiz except maybe Hess' Law.

Starting Thermochemistry: please draw your procedure for the calorimetry experiment into you lab books.

Read and Outline Zumdahl Ch. 6 pp. 241-254 (bomb calorimeter from video).
Problem set 1 p. 282, P.E. and K.E, and Heat/work, enthalpy: 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31,33.
Problem Set 2 pp. 284, Calorimetry: pp. 284 : 37, 39, 41,43.

Observe and understand how manometers work p. 189, Real gas corrections p. 223.

Good Luck on the PSAT

Remember Sat. Oct. 20 is Chemistry Day at the Museum, I can use help even for 1 hour. Community Service. Thanks.
