Summer-Packet Test Info

For the test on Wednesday you will be able to use the IB data booklet. This is the booklet the IB Organization allows you to use on the test. You will be able to use this booklet on every test in my class. This booklet is 38 pages long and is mostly filled with information you do not need at this point. The info that will be useful to you for the summer packet test includes:

Avogadro's constant
Periodic table

Unfortunately, you are not given a chart of common polyatomic ions so you will need to be familiar with these coming into the test. I would suggest making flashcards. Your test will include naming chemicals from formulas and stating formulas from names, writing and balancing equations, and simple stoichiometry with accurate significant figures. Again, let me know if you have any questions.

1st week info

Your summer packet will be due on Tuesday, Aug 26th (first day of school) and your test will be the next day, wednesday Aug 27th. Please prepare accordingly. We will be moving quite fast and have a lot to cover in the first 2 weeks. See you soon!

Summer is almost over :( and IB chem is about to begin :)

Alright future chemistry studs, the time has come to get serious about that packet if you haven't done so already. Please be aware that if you fail to turn in a completed packet on the first day of school you will be dropped from the course. NO EXCEPTIONS. This is a fairly easy assignment and if you have had trouble finding the time to complete it over the summer you are going to have an even tougher time during the year. Please feel free to email or post any questions. Good luck and see you all on August 26th!!
