Many of you have asked me to post the holiday homework assignment early so you can get started - so here it is! (Remember, you voted for this!) 
(1) PRINT, STUDY, and COMPLETE the exercises in the NMSI Packet "12 Kinetics".  Please take the time to read it carefully - it explains everything very well and in great detail!  For the math nerds among you, it shows some of the calculus used to derive our kinetics equations as well.  It also includes instructions on how to graph rate data using your graphing calculator. 
(2) Complete the Free Response problems in the "Kinetics FR Worksheet" packet.  SHOW ALL WORK.   Do the problems on a separate paper, don't write on the worksheet (not enough room to show your work).  INCLUDE UNITS will all answers that need them (concentrations, pressures, times, rate constants, etc). 
TEST on CH. 14 Kinetics is MONDAY DEC 2.  Enjoy your Thanksgiving holiday!

Print and READ the attached document regarding Periodic Trends; then, using what you've learned from it, answer the following questions: 

(1) Explain why the atomic radius of Mg is greater than that of Cl.
 
(2)  Explain why the first ionization energy of S is greater than that of Se.
 
(3) Explain why the ionic radius of Br- is greater than that of Br.
 
(4)  Explain why the ionic radius of K+ is smaller than that of K.
 
(5) Element "X"'s first ionization energy is smaller than element "Z"'s .  X has its valence electrons in both s and p sublevels, but Z's valence electrons are only in an s sublevel.  X forms ions with a -1 charge, and Z forms ions with a +2 charge.   Which of the following elements could be X and Z?  Justify your choices!   Iodine; Lithium; Fluorine; Aluminum; Phosphorus; Barium; Beryllium

Assignment

***Bring Donation Money Today Please!***
REVIEW sections 2-1 through 2-9 in Ch. 2.  Most of this material you already learned in Honors Chem, so "skimming" as you read is OK.  DO the "Review and Check" questions for each of the sections on pages 48, 50, 52, 63, 65, 74-75, 77, and 83-84.  The answers are in the back of the book, but please do them all before you peek!  Check your work when you're finished.  

I've also been asked to give you more practice on dimensional analysis,so here's a good tutorial website with lots of examples and practice problems.  (The answers link doesn't work, though.)  Do at least 4 problems from each difficulty level (Level 1, 2, and 3). 
Dimensional Analysis practice   SHOW ALL WORK WITH UNITS! 

Due:

Assignment

Read sections 1-3 through 1-8 (pgs 6-19) and do the "Review and Check" questions at the end of each section.  Then do the following problems at the end of the chapter: AP Multiple-choice Review Questions pgs. 21e-21f, # 1-7.
Also, start re-memorizing the ions on the sheet attached here! There will be questions on ions' names formulas and charges on our first test!

Assignment

Go to myap.collegeboard.org and log into our AP Chemistry class.  There should be a "Quiz" there (it's not really a quiz, just a homework assignment) labeled "HW 1, Mass Spec & Moles".  This is a TIMED, Multiple choice assignment.  There are 9 questions. NO CALCULATOR use! Any math required is mental math.  You get 15 minutes.   You have until 7:45 AM Thursday morning to complete the assignment.  There is nothing to print out; I will know if you have completed it. 

Let's hope this works!  You should be able to compete this on your phone as well as a laptop or desktop computer.
