If you had CHEM 1215 with me last semester and you would like your Exam IV and Final Exam, just drop by my office.
Remember CHEM 1225 is a 2nd semester chemistry course. It is assumed that you have had CHEM 1215 or equivalent. If you have questions about your chemistry background drop by my office and we can talk. BTW I have a meeting at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, January 13, and will not be able to hold my office hours at that time.
Do we need a HELP session for the Review Problem Set? (Vote for one!)
For predicting the products of chemical reactions (remember this is one of my favorite types of questions) I recommend you review the following notes from CHEM 1215;
Chapter 7 notes
Summarizing chemical equations notes
You may also find some useful information in Chapter 6 notes
Here is a suggestion for doing the Review Problem Set. When you are doing the problems check the chapter in your textbook the material is introduced. Then go to the Lecture Notes link on the CHEM 1215 Web site and find the lecture notes for that chapter. Check the dates the material was covered in lecture. Then go to the Problem Set link and find the date a problem set is due which is close to the date the lecture material was discussed. You can then look at the problem set AND the answers to help you recall how to do the problems. Isn't that a great idea?!
RPS.7 - RPS.10 will be covered in lecture (most likely Wednesday, January 13, 1999).
Be sure to get your CHEM 1225 Laboratory Manual BEFORE going to laboratory this week. You will need the Safety Quiz in your Laboratory Manual. If you do not have your Laboratory Manual for lab this week, talk to your TA immediately.
Announcements from previous days
Syllabus and General Information pages are now available. The only tentative feature of our schedule this semester is the time of our exams. I am going to try to have them in the evening, but I need to work that out with scheduling.
The first two weeks of laboratory will spend time on a review problem set and Exercise 1, 2 and 3 in the CHEM 1225 Lab Manual. If you have Monday lab...DO NOT MISS IT!!
We will begin in Chapter 12 with a review of Lewis structures. Check out the lecture notes.
This semester I've added a new link called 'What's Important'. In this section I will discuss the important concepts in a chapter and try to relate the concepts covered in the chapter. I'll also try to provide some 'reasons' why you might want to learn this material.
