Wednesday, March 23

Today's class didn't have much new content, Mr. H explained at the beginning of class that the last 20 minutes of class would be used to work on the WebAssign homework due Friday. He also explained that the test on Friday would consist of 35 multiple choice questions and 2 work problems, any people who would be absent on Friday should take the test in the Test Center as opposed to waiting 'till after Spring break. Next, we took a look at Matt's excellent blog post. Then we turned to packet page 8 to look at some problems not unlike those featured on Friday's test.

Balanced ionic equations and "Mole Island" conversion factors make a repeat appearance here, a simple if somewhat lengthy review.

After those two problems, we moved on to page 18. Rankings for the freezing point depression/boiling point elevation can be determined by the quantity im. The compound with the highest im has the highest boiling point and the lowest
freezing point, the compound with the lowest im has the lowest boiling point and the highest freezing point.

After two more problems, we spent the rest of class time doing our WebAssign homework on netbooks. All in all, this was a decently productive day. Don't forget to complete the Solubility Lab Write-Up. Oh, and it'd be a good idea to study for this upcoming test instead of, 'yanno, winging it.
