OSU Mountain
Bike/Road Bike Club meeting Thursday, August 30, 2001 in AgH201 at 6:30 pm.
Dr. Materer
has been assisting me with a new Grade display page. The new page will only
display your individual grade. To access your grades in CHEM 1515 (when I
begine posting) you will need an SID#/Name. So be sure to complete the form
on our web site to tell me what your SID is.
I've added
a new link on our menu. It is a forum for our class. You can go to this site
and ask questions, answer questions, make comments, all anonymously. I'll
be moderating the forum, so I will get the feedback and I'll also add my observations/answers
if I see anyone going off track. Too Cool!
I added a new
type of exploration at the PreLecture Exploratons link. It is a Post-Lecture
Exploration. Same design, an animation and some questions, but no I'd like
you to do these after lecture. I'd like to get an idea of what you understood
about the lecture.
BIG
ANNOUNCEMENT! CHANGE IN DAY for EXAM 3! Exam 3 has been changed to Wednesday,
November 7, 2001 from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Originally scheduled for Thursday,
November 15, 2001. Due to my travel schedule I leave for Princeton, New Jersey
on November 8 and I will not be back until Tuesday, November 14. I do not
want to have our 3rd exam scheduled such that I am gone the whoel week before
the exam, so I've made this change. Please update your calenders. Sorry for
the change. All other exam dates are firm.
Just
back from Chicago. No Pre-lecture Exporations for Monday's class...yet. I
may have something in the morning.
HELP
Session on Monday, August 27, 2001 at 7:45 pm in PS141. Questions on the Review
PS and PS1 are welcome.
Who has an 83Plus Silver Edition? Let me know.
In RPS.6 use Ca(OH)2(s) rather than Ca(OH)2(aq).
Instead of Appendix C in Brown, LeMay and Bursten use Appendix B in Silberberg.
Lecture notes for Wednesday class are posted. I am still
working on them. There are some sample problems using the information from
cooling/heating curves.
Be sure to do the pre-lecture exploration for Friday. I have
one ready now, I may have another later this evening.
You should know the cations and anions in Tables 2.3 and
2.5 on pages 67 and 69 in Silberberg.
If you missed Monday's lecture I distributed two Problem
Sets. These are available at the Problem
Set link. You will need the Adobe Acrobate Reader to open the problem
sets. Check the Plug-Ins link for the
Acrobat Player.
Want some EXTRA CREDIT? Complete the form at the SID#/Name
link.
Be sure to bring your textbook and a calculator to laboratory
the first week of classes. Yes, the CHEM 1515 laboratory does meet this week
(August 20 - 24). (See the CHEM 1515 Syllabus)

*cancelled* this section has been cancelled due to low enrollment
in the section. If you are enrolled in 1515.07 please transfer to one of the
open sections (1515.01 or .06). Sorry for this inconvenience.
Sitting around with nothing to do? We are going to begin
lecture on Wednesday, January 17th discussing Chapter 12 in Silberberg. I
recommend you review Chapters 9, 10 and 11 before class. In particular, refresh
your recall of drawing Lewis structures, the concept of electronegativity,
ionic and covalent bonds, bond polarity, molecular polarity, molecular shape
(in particular central atoms with 2, 3 and 4 groups of electrons), valence
bond theory, and hybridization. Check out lecture notes from CHEM 1314. In
particular look at;
Lecture
Notes on Covalent compounds and electronegativity.
Lecture
Notes on Valence Shell Electron-Pair Repulsion.
Lecture
Notes on Valence Bond Theory and Hybrization.
