stuff...
Honors- lock it in: we will have our next Atomic Concepts unit exam next Wednesday (and possibly Thursday also). The exam will cover material from when we started our notes on electromagnetic radiation/waves through what is taught next Tuesday (we should be just about done with the wave-mechanical model of the atom by then).
So, there is no quiz tomorrow but you will hand in previously assigned hw (see the previous posting).
The density/measurement lab writeup is still due Monday.
I can tell that most (I hope that all) of you are catching on to the Bohr Model and the Photoelectric Effect based on your responses/ lack of glazed eyes today.
AP: back to thermochem tomorrow...if I can get you through Hess's Law for the weekend, the unit is practically over. We'll see... I'll post a descriptive chem set (with answers) for tonight because we won't have class time for it tomorrow so check you answers.
p.s. during your test today, a student from last year's AP Chem class came in to tell me that, due to his 5 on the AP exam, his application fee to a certain college was waived. Yesssss. In many ways, it pays to get a 5 and we are on course to attain such an achievement.
