Chemically Unbalanced

Well a quick update for while I'm gone.

1. Missing stuff - Please finish your extreme gas & lighter lab for the end of the week.
2. Review material - practice material will be posted on Moodle. You can access it there.
3. Concept checks - some of you are getting behind here. Check your grades on moodle to see your homework mark!
4. Keynote Project - For the last 1/2 hour next Monday we will be looking at what you've done (i.e first draft). Every group should have something considering you will have had 2.5 class periods!
5. Wiki - I've started a wiki to play with (http://stirlingchem.wetpaint.com/). Everyone has been invited, so attempt to login. I used the email provided for the blog. Once in, experiment a bit by editing your previous posts. Clean them up and remove the nicknames, replacing with real names. Also, you can delete the comments part of the postings.
6. Test on Friday. I will be back Thurday to answer any questions that may arise.

See you Thursday!

this site talks a little about the formulas!
http://www.lon-capa.org/~mmp/applist/pvt/pvt.htm
This site shows you the ideal gas law relationships and you can choose the constants and draw on the graph!

Okay, so I have been getting a little behind on the work because I was stuck on the concept of Avogadro's Law and the concept of moles.... This one site helped me a little to understand Avagadro's reasoning a bit, and this video just helps with the concept of moles (hehe prepare yourself though!). And to top it off, this site has almost all the formulas for the laws, and works through each one with actual numbers, step by step. Have fun! ^_^ lol

Watch out for this one, I found it really helpful, but its buried in a huge pile of useless fluff.

This has all of the gas laws. Look at it and see if you like it!!!

This is an applet showing the ideal gas law. You need to scroll down a little bit to see it. It is an interesting little site but if you put your mind to it, it actually makes alot of sense. http://www.chm.davidson.edu/ChemistryApplets/GasLaws/GasConstant.html

This has all the different types of gas laws. See if it works for you!!!

This post has a little bit on Avogadro's law it has both text and an applet although the applet is a little low tech it is supposed to show the main parts of this gas law. In the applaet you actually have to problem solve. This should be an new direction with the posts.

This lets you control all the variables, and will construct a graph for each different option you can pick.

Interactive program that lets you control the constant in each experiment.

Helps represent the graphs we have been looking at in class (click on graph and drag mouse).

This is the site Mr.I showed us in class, he/you didn't post it when he/you said he/you would so I thought i'd do it for him/you. (you will have to go to the bottom of the page in the sixth last point where it says "click here for the applet") I find it really helpful and fun.

1. Like last week, we will need some postings & comments. Remember 1&2 as the minimum, but feel free to go above and beyond. Also comments should be constructive about what was useful and why.

2. Make a second sheet that contains info on the second chapter (This would be the McGraw Hill Ch.4 pdf file) and upload it. I prefer pdf format please :)

3. There are 2 more concept checks that need to be done!

4. Lastly, we are starting our first project! We will discuss that during monday afternoons class!
