Honors Winter Break Assignment
There are two parts to the assignment with TWO different respective due dates.
(1) The first part will add a full 15 points onto your last exam, if done perfectly i.e. immaculately neat and legible, every "i" dotted, every word spelled perfectly, no grammatical atrocities (not a SINGLE student uses the idiom "there is" vs. "there are" correctly, not ONE of you!), and all necessary and sufficient information.
If the corrections are not complete and perfect, your score will remain unchanged.
I will post a question by question list of necessary information that should be included for each answer. Any doubts about your explanation must be emailed to me over the break.
This part is due, in class, the day of your return to school.
(2) Since we are over one week behind schedule, we must compensate by doing the Nuclear Physics (that's right, it's physics) unit over the break.
Carefully PERUSE and highlight the Orange Review Book Topic 12: Nuclear "Chemistry" (it's physics, really). Do all problems in that unit (from pages 175 through 188). I WILL post all of the answers so just check them.
I will also post a tutorial (same as the type from the last break) that I want you to write out, solve, and hand in (just as you did last time).
This part of the assignment is due by Wednesday, the week of your return to school (there will be a test that Thursday ON Nuclear Chem/Physics).
I will spend the Monday that we return to school on Nuclear but that is all. We have to get back on pace.
