Chemically Unbalanced

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

I don't know about you guys but I can never find out the conversion factors for pressure so I went out and found a site that does it, take a look at it and let me know if its correct!

Well here is an update on things that you need to to this week.

1. Check that you uploaded your assignment (gas law sheet) correctly. I've checked and not everyone has uploaded and most people need to make changes.

2. News Forum - New posting that needs your response.

3. Concept checks. There are 3 that you can do. You can redo anyone you wish, but there is a 5hr delay between attempts.

4. A survey to get some general info about your learning style.

Thanks!

This is a site i found helpful, its not really as in depth as some of the other sites, and theres no interactive component, but i did find that it did lead a lot of interesting things, and could possibly be useful in the future.

This is an interactive site that I found was useful but also helped me understand a little bit more about gas laws. http://accad.osu.edu/~midori/GasLaw.html

Here is a little diagram about boyles law that will help you with the concept as volume goes down presure rises.

This is a little something on the gas laws, its pretty sweet

This is a site that has the properties of gases and all the different types of laws.

hey i found some interesting(-ish) sites.
click here to learn about Boyles law
and click here to watch a video/slideshow about the gas laws in general.

hehe so there they are! ^_^

Here is the site for Charles' Law. It really helps explain how to do the calculations.

If you go to the top of the page it will have a link to Boyle's Law.

It basically explains that at a constant pressure, volume of a gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature. (So at a constant pressure, if the temperature is doubled, the volume of gas is also doubled).
