POWER POINT: THE CONVERSION EXPERIENCE, PART 1

STUDENTS:   Here is the first part of
"The Conversion Experience" Study Guide shared in Mr. Hatfield's classes on Thursday and Monday.   

This set of notes reviews the concept of the mole and the molar mass, as well as unit conversions for moles to grams and moles to particles, then introduces the concept of the molar volume (22.4 L/mol at STP).

VIDEO: FIREWORKS!

Students who were in Mr. Hatfield's classes on Friday, Nov. 4th, watched a PBS video entitled 'Fireworks!'  Students who need to watch it again, or who were not present on Friday, will find the video embedded below in this post.

The worksheet for this video can be obtained HERE.

Students should pay careful attention to items related to their text, including Section 4.2, pg. 110-127 (electron configuration) and Section 6.5, pg. 185-190 (ionic compounds):

POWER POINT NOTES: "THE ELEMENTAL PATTERN" and "THE COSMIC FINGERPRINT"

Students:  Here are the TWO sections of Power Point Notes for Unit 3, 'The Cosmic Fingerprint'.

First, we have 'The Elemental Pattern', that shows how the periodic table contains deep information about the structure of the different elements:

Next, we have 'The Cosmic Fingerprint', that shows that the arrangement of electrons in the shells of atoms is related to an element's 'signature' of energy levels, which in turn can be used to explain the chemical properties of that element:

The Unit 3 Test is November 8th!

You should be using these slides to complete your Unit 3 Study Guides of the same title.   

Those Study Guides should be handed in before the beginning of Tuesday's class in order to ensure that you have plenty of time to create your personalized, detailed copy of the notes in your Composition Book.

VIDEO: THE MOLE

Students:  here is Paul Anderson's video, as shown in Monday's class, explaining the concept of the mole with helpful illustrations:




Student should use this video to complete a worksheet given in class, which is also available online HERE.
