Chemblog!

Dare to gaze at the face of the awesome yet pulchritudinally challenged Amadeo Avogadro!
G and D Honors: we only had half of a period today so I didn't bother to start the next part of our unit. We'll begin that next Tuesday. We did a review lesson today (rarely will we have time for this) and did a couple of problems converting atoms to moles to grams and vice-versa.

E: we did one more Law of Multiple Proportions problem today and then we talked about the atomic mass scale and the mole.

AP: got into the amazing Cannizzaro method for identifying an unkown element in a compound via gravimetric analysis of the elements in the compound. From the data, we obtain some whole number multiple (1x, 2x, 3x, etc.) of the atomic mass of the unknown element.

Good luck to the Regents and Honors classes on their chem tests tomorrow!
