4/21 Chemistry update and homework due 4/28
Hi folks,
Today we took a bit of a look at electrochemistry. We did a small lab with it last week and today we discussed what electrochemistry is.
We also spent time performing a titration lab which is a very important skill in chemistry used to find the proportions of compounds in a substance.
Homework for next week is to finish the calculations in today's lab (see photo of page included below).
Also:
Read the text book pages 337 to 357 and
Answer 1-11 Key Terms and Matching Definitions page 358
Answer 1 - 5 Review Questions page 358
Answer 9 - 18 Review Questions page 358
10 points extra credit for doing the experiment on page 341. Take pictures or a video to document your work.

A good video explaining redox reactions
If you are feeling you may want another look at redox reactions, this video does a nice job explaining what we've covered in class.

4/14 Chemistry update and homework due 4/21
Hi folks,
Today we did two activities in class. For one, we slightly electroplated a coin using a penny, and for the other we examined the pH's of many common household chemicals. We will talk a bit more next week about the concepts behind both of today's experiments.
For homework this week:
Read pgs 307 - 331 in the Conceptual Chemistry book
Do Review Questions on pgs 332 and 333 #'s 1 - 17

4/7 Chemistry update and homework due 4/14
Hi folks,
So, today we got deeper into redox reactions and explored the fascinating world of half reactions as we tried to find out where the electrons went in the reaction.
Homework for this week is to do the enclosed worksheet.
