September 09, 2018: just a short note. Due to the likelihood of our losing Thursday and Friday this coming week, I will plan on a quiz Wednesday, at the latest, and we will then continue the following week. More as we get there.
September 10: I have work for you to do. I expect that we will be experiencing a shortened week...just don't know how short yet. Since we will also be "chrome-book-less," this will mean that we will be "old school" for a time. Hang in there...we got this!
October 04: I am attaching a file, below, which is what I hope you can do at this point...we will be going over this in class today. I suggest you download the file and annotate as you need while we discuss in class; I will be handing out a hard copy as well.

October 22: finish half-life lab work, if not already done. Complete other two half-life handouts as soon as possible, but no later than the start of class Wednesday (I would prefer Tuesday). Then we will return to bonding, as we delve into VSEPR, valence shell electron pair repulsion theory, which is the current system for explaining the location of bonded atoms around the central atom of a molecule. We will have a lab for this Wednesday, after a quiz on half-lives and radioactive decay.
October 24: lab may move to tomorrow, or not, depending on how well we get things done today, to give some time to get into VSEPR after finishing nuclear decay sequence...yes, that is a pun, as you will learn today. Below is file on VSEPR...there will be more.

November 20: good video for balancing equations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzwziP04448
November 26: time to hit the ground running...we have 3.5 weeks before winter holidays and we need to cover some ground.
www.mesacc.edu/~gilletti/.../Problem%20solving%208%2025%20820%20pm.ppt
- Read chapters 11, 12, if you haven't already (anticipating like the awesome students you are)
- Chapter 11 problems: you can start, but will likely need some of the material we will be discussing later in the week: 4, 10, 11, 18, 20, 24, 29, 35, 48, 57, 67, 71...have by Monday, December 3.
- Chapter 12 problems: 8, 11, 13, 18, 24, 26, 27, 29, 31, 32, more will be done in class. Have these by Wednesday, December 5.

November 26: reminder: we are teaching until 245 pm. You can pack up and put your chair on the desk at 245, but we will continue working until then. This is not optional, and Mrs. Rodriguez will be delighted to enlarge your understanding in ALC if this proves confusing. Let me know. Your cooperation is expected and appreciated.

Tomorrow
Tomorrow
- Turn in “science bug” balancing sheet, if not already done
- Turn in Chemical Equation Worksheet…don’t leave tonight without it
- Turn in Mole ratios handout, if not already done
- Be ready for your test…you will have all the stuff you practiced and
- Molar mass
- Limiting reactant problem
- Some percent composition
November 30: be ready! Lots of balancing, stoichiometry...remember the big picture!, percent composition....
The only two requirements for success are to stay calm and count on.

December 02, 8am: sorry, folks. Running late on grading, will post something in next few hours.
1007am: most of the way through grading...looking better than I think most of you may have thought.
As to test reparations, several items, and I would prefer electronic submission prior to 8am, but will accept prior to first lunch Monday; first, write a "recipe" for balancing a chemical reaction equation, using calcium sulfate and phosphoric acid as your reactants. Make sure your products and reactants are correct. Second, if you have 200 g of the calcium sulfate, and 350 g of the phosphoric acid, calculate your percent yield if you collect 47 g of calcium phosphate.
Enjoy the rest of the day. albeit likely soggy. Mr.B

December 10: still missing some ch. 11/12 question sets, a few pogils, and a bunch of the last three problem sets. Lab today, then on to finish reactions with a test...Wednesday or Thursday? We will discuss. Gas laws next...need to punch through these!
December 13: below are completed problems from end of today's class.

December 14: we are nearing the end of the semester and I am putting a series of powerpoints here for you to view, take notes, and bring questions to class next week. Post questions to shared doc on google drive. I will be "driving fast" through these next week, so your having viewed them prior to class will be paramount for success. I will have some problems for you as well. I am also posting a file which covers the appropriate chapters on these topics, and includes some problems for you to work on. All due before you leave on winter holiday break...make sure you get these to me.
