Students will work in groups of three to observe, analyze, and record their findings of the several different types of chemical reactions that they will undertake in the lab that include synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, and double replacement. As has … Continue reading →

Students will be evaluated upon their skills of converting five word equations into five skeleton equations and then balance them based upon our ongoing classwork on the Promethean board as students have continued to demonstrate their understanding of this important … Continue reading →

Students are to continue practicing on writing and balancing word equations. Students are to practice on their transparencies as we have discussed them in class as well as do #3, 4, and 5 on the activity series of their handouts.

Students who are in need of further practice on converting word equations into skeleton reactions and then balance them should work on question #’s: 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, and 75 pages 312 and 313.

We will answer and correct a few of the test questions on balancing chemical reactions. We will also answer and correct the study guide on Section 9.1, based upon the word equation problems as well as indications of chemical changes … Continue reading →

Students will be evaluated upon their skills of balancing chemical equations as we have been practicing in class as well as at home. Each student will be given a set of five chemical reactions to balance correctly.

Students are to practice on PAGE 1 on balancing word equations as students will again take part in participating in class by demonstrating their comprehension skills of this process on the Promethean board.

Students are to continue balancing the remaining chemical equations that were assigned today in class on their handout. If you still find difficulty balancing these equations, I suggest that you read Section 9.1 for steps for balancing chemical reactions/equations. Tomorrow, … Continue reading →

For those who are still have not mastered the naming and writing chemical formulas, I suggest that you go online, google several worksheet examples, and practice further since these should have been mastered during the first semester as we have … Continue reading →

Students need to complete their review sheets on writing formulas and naming ionic compounds if they still feel the need to practice. Tomorrow we will do more as we will reinforce the writing formulas and naming molecular compounds as practice.
