Tues-Day 6
AP: we had our Thermo exam with the crazy numbers; suffice is to say, this test came with safeguards (i.e. you had to write out the general equations and then plug in the data) that you won't get on the AP exam. Fortunately, you abided by the directions and were able to deal with the wide variety of questions on the test. So far, the results are very good as is our start of this last, brief quarter together.
Gradually do Project KARMA over the break and really learn for yourself whatever wasn't clear during a test this year. Do NOT just try to make corrections from sketchy memory. Revisit your notes, tutorials, and the text. Then, try to answer the questions.
Email me if you get stuck on a problem.
I'll post the three AP Part II exams later tonight. You've already been doing part II questions over the past few weeks so this should be more of the same. Again, if you have trouble, email me and I'll point you in the right direction or clarify a given question.
Regents:
The vacation assignment is online; email me if you have a question about naming any of the types of organic compounds.
When you return, we will briefly review your assignment for a day; then, you will be tested on naming molecules of each type of organic compound assigned.
Then, we return to the all-important Le Chatelier's Principle.
Quiz today?: the majority needs to study more; A LOT more.
Honors: we had our first kinetics and enthalpy/energy changes exam. I will grade those over the vacation.
