HI all, I forgot to mention in class today that we are having our group 4 informational/planning meetings this week. Tuesday and Thursday during AT in the auditorium. These meetings are not optional. The group 4 project is required to pass any IB science class. See you tomorrow afternoon!

Also here is the information for posting your exploration write ups on turnitin.

Period 1: ID#: 11013934,   password: ibp1       FIXED!!! SORRY.

period 4: ID#: 11013950,   password: ibp4

Please make sure you sign up for the correct course. Remember they are due by 5pm on Tuesday.

Also below is the key to the organic nomenclature packet we have been working on.

Hi all, I'm so sorry for my illness and absence. I am extending the due date for the exploration lab to tuesday. I'll get the turnitin assignment set up on Monday. Thanks.

I have opened a new tab under IB Chem, lesson videos. there you will find videos for naming and drawing organic compounds. this should help you with your assignment.

For next week you need to write the Exploration portion of a lab. You will be designing this investigation and all of the specifics are up to you. The lab should investigate solubility in some way. Use the Lab report breakdown page as well as the rubric to made sure you do all that is needed. Essentially you are planning a lab and writing the background and procedure (everything up to actual data collection). This should be done for Monday/Tuesday of next week.


Also for next class get your 10.1 R&R notes done.

And we will be having a short quiz beginning of next class on 4.1,4.2,4.5,4.3

here is the IA lab that you need to "grade"

OK, so for next class you need to do the analysis and the challenge problems from the Topic 3 HW set. Also finish the post lab questions from the lab in class these are all (2-5) short answer style questions please try to be as thorough and articulate as possible.

Finally you need to do the group 1 and 17 video lab. Watch the videos linked below and the reactivity of the alkali metals and the halogens and write a 1/2 -1 page discussion of the similarities and differences in the chemical properties of the elements in these two groups. Specifically discuss the reactions of the Alkali metals with water and with the halogens and discuss the reactions of the halogens with halide ions.

Here is a fun video showing the reactions of the alkali metals with water, and another that is less exciting but a little more informative.

Here is a slightly boring but very informative video of the reactions between halides and halogens.

here is a video on sodium with the halogens. If you can find others that look at the other metals great!
