POWER POINT NOTES: CHEMICAL KINETICS

Students, here are the Power Point Notes on Chemical Kinetics, which covers the concept of equilibrium and the rates of reaction.


The Study Guide has been made available in class since Friday, March 17th.  If you need to get another copy, you can download a PDF version of the Study Guide HERE.

UNIT 6 is now over, and all Unit 6 work is PAST DUE, and will NOT be accepted after Friday,  March 24th  

VIDEO: EQUILIBRIUM

In this video, Paul Anderson does a great job of providing a demonstration that suggests how chemical systems reach equilibrium.




Mr. Anderson also models how to equilibrium setups and solve for the value of the equilibrium constant, 'K'.  Students were given a worksheet based on this video in Friday's class, along with a set of problems in which they will practice setting up equilibrium expressions.

This is a short topic, and the notes on Chemical Kinetics should be finished within the same day as viewing the video.  Both items should be treated as homework, and completed as soon as possible.

POWER POINT NOTES: THERMOCHEMISTRY

Students, you can download the Power Point Notes for next weeks's Unit Test on Thermochemistry by either clicking HERE or on the graphic below:

Students should use this to complete their Study Guide, which is due this week, in order to prepare for next week's UNIT TEST!

VIDEO: ENTHALPY OF REACTION

The following video by Paul Anderson was introduced in class on Thursday, May 2nd.   It helpfully reviews some of the information already given in lecture regarding heat and the enthalpy of reactions. It also features a very handy, step-by-step demonstration of how to apply Hess's Law (a SUBTLE and advanced topic) to calculate enthalpies.




Students have an assignment based on that video, which is available HERE as a PDF file.

VIDEO: TEMPERATURE

As we transition from our 'Kinetic Theory of Gases' to our unit on Thermochemistry, it is still important to consider that the random, dynamic motion of a very large set of tiny (sub-MICROSCOPIC) particles produces the phenomena we can observe at our own, relatively large (MACROSCOPIC) scale, like pressure and temperature.

Paul Anderson demonstrates this in the following video.  Students will receive an accompanying worksheet based upon it!

UNIT 6 SYLLABUS

 

POWER POINT NOTES: KINETIC THEORY OF GASES

Here are the second set of Power Point Notes from our current unit.  Use them to prepare your personalized, detailed notes in your Composition Book for Friday's Test.
