Describing Chemical Reactions

Today we learned how to describe chemical reactions, by using complete and net ionic equations. I think I have an okay grasp on the concept, but I can see myself screwing it up with small errors. The method of solving these problems is fairly simple, but there is a lot of room to make simple mistakes, which is something I have a tendency of doing. I'm going to have to really review polyatomic ions and nomenclature to succeed in this unit.

Yet Another Pre Lab Quiz

Today we had another pre lab quiz. I  got the answer right, but I was basically just guessing, I didn't really understand what I was doing. I found this link and it explained the process a lot better, so I understand how and why I got the answer.

Today's Quiz

The quiz today was kind of rough. There were plenty of questions I knew hot to answer, but there were a few that I had no idea how to solve. I'm going to need to study molar mass more and do practice problems on solving for gases, because those were the topics that really threw me. I think (hope!) that I got at least a C on this quiz.

PreLab Quiz

Today in class we had a pre lab quiz. I got the easy question so I got it right, but my partner had a much tougher question. I wasn't completely sure how to solve it, but once Mrs. Frankenberg gave us the data and I worked it out with my partner I understood it a lot better
