Hey guys – this is where 7th Period Chemistry posts results for the Half-Life Simulation lab. You’ll just list your data from the first data table as a comment – just like you comment every week, except this time you are just listing the data from the first data table. Don’t forget that your results must be posted by Friday, Jan. 9, by midnight. The lab report is due written up in your lab book on Tuesday, Jan. 13.

Remember, you don’t have to use candies; you may use coins or anything else that has two sides. Please note that you are to post the number of “radioactive” nuclides remaining after each toss.

Just to clarify, everything on the lab sheets will go in your lab report on that you will post on Google Drive (from now on this is your lab book). Title, Objective, Procedure, Observations (with data table), Conclusion, and Questions. Don’t forget that your graph needs to be either a full page graph that you do on Excel or a similar program, or you can draw a full page graph on graph paper, scan a very clean, sharp copy and copy it into your lab report. And don’t forget that the analysis questions, calculations, graph, etc., go after your conclusion.

Happy counting – and wait until AFTER the lab to snack!! 🙂

CHEMISTRY: Now here’s a healthy breakfast! So what do you figure is the half-life of a twinkie? Nooooooooo…..it’s not the same thing! (Even it you do eat it with a Red Bull!)

So how are you doing with the nuclear equations? Feeling better about them now? Make sure you memorize the nuclear symbols for alpha particles, beta particles (electrons), positrons, neutrons, and protons!

Great start on half-life problems! These will be a little different – we thought them through in class, now I want you to take the concepts we talked about and work them. We’ll walk through them tomorrow in class, I promise, but first, I want you to think through these problems yourselves! You’re a great problem solver!
