Chapters 11 and 13
AP students, this unit encompasses chapters 11 and 13. Chapter 12 looks to be an amazing unit on polymers and ceramics and nanotechnology; however, we just won't have time to cover it in class. I plan to read it myself because it looks fascinating!
In chapter 11, read pp. 437-458 well. When you get to section 11.7, Structure of Solids, you may skim. Pick back up on your reading in earnest pp. 464-470.
In chapter 13, read pp. 526-556 well. You may scan the section on colloids from pp. 556-561.
Homework for chapter 11 includes 2, 5, 6, 9, 11, 15, 17, 19, 23, 24, 29, 33, 35, 37, 39, 45, 47, 53, 71, 77, and 79.
Homework for chapter 13 includes 12, 13, 15, 21, 23, 27, 35, 37, 39, 41, 43, 45, 47, 49, 59, 61, 65, 67, 69, 71, 73, and 75.
We'll complete the alkaline earth metal lab on Monday and begin the new unit. Lab notebooks with entries for the alkaline earth/halide lab are due on Monday, October 20.. The test on Chapters 10 and 11 will be determined as we progress through the unit.
There will be one UTexas set of problems this time. I'll have it up and running shortly.
Calculators should be an appendage of your bodies which you bring with you to class on a daily basis.
