Chemistry – d, f, and p Block Elements (for 3/23 – 30/20)

CHEMISTRY: Wow! Did you every dream there was that much interesting and important stuff to know about the s, p, d, and f block elements?! Here are the notes on the d, f, and p Block elements.

As you are studying, make sure you go back and practice figuring out the period, block, group, and type of element from the electron configuration.

To make your study of the elements even more interesting(!), there are some really great videos with tons of useful information at this site: http://periodicvideos.com/. There will be 7 videos in all: H, K, Hg, C, As, O, F. After you watch the videos, you will LIST 2 properties and 2 uses of each element. Type or hand write the answers. Convert your final document to a PDF and submit into your Google Drive Chemistry Shared Folder.

Go pop some popcorn and have some movie time!

The element from the d block that I especially want you to watch is Mercury. The elements from the p block that I especially want you to watch are Carbon, Arsenic, Oxygen, and Fluorine. And there are other interesting ones you might like to watch just for fun!

  1. I think so far this week I am a 4/5. I didn’t get much work done but I’ve got a lot done today. I think we are moving at a good pace and I like that everything is due on Monday. It makes me have to be responsible and allows me to schedule how I am going to get everything done.

  4. This week I’d rate myself at a 4/5. I’ve completed all of my assignments this week so now I can focus on bigger projects and just chill. I made a weekly assignments list and that helped me a lot, so I feel like I’ve done a good job so far.

  5. I rate my self as a 5/5 because I am completing assignments on time. One challenge is making sure our work actually get submitted and having to constantly check to see if assignments or due dates have been changed. We are going at a good pace. It allows us to balance our time and really learn the material. We are also able to focus more on our bigger projects.

  6. I rate myself a 4/5 because I have gotten most of my work done early in the week so if I forget it won’t be to late when I realize it. I like that things aren’t due the next day.

  7. This week I rate myself a 4/5. I’ve adjusted surprisingly well to remote learning, but It’s been very confusing to get all of my work from everyone from powerschool.

  8. I rate myself a 5/5 because I have really been keeping up with my work. I really enjoy having all of the work at the beginning of the week so I can work ahead.

  10. This week i rate myself a 4/5 stars. It took me a minute to figure everything out but i got it all down and have completed my work so far this week.

  11. This week i rate myself a 4/5. I’m getting work done ahead of time. I actually understand whats being taught now at school because I don’t have the distractions from the classrooms

  12. This week I would rate myself a 4/5 because I have done good getting all of my work done, but I still am forgetting to check powerschool every day.

  13. This week I rate myself a 4/5 because I got all my work done, but I’ve been procrastinating on the project.

  16. This week I would rate myself a 4/5 because I am keeping up with my school work even when powerschool is down and I haven’t let myself become too far behind.

  17. I rate myself a 3/5 for this week because i have gotten most of my work done and have worked on my project however, I feel I could have done better with my sleep schedule because I haven’t been getting to my work as soon as I would like to. I feel in the future if I want to keep getting all of my work done sufficiently I need to get on a better sleep schedule.

  18. I rate myself a 3/5 still trying to get used to the remote learning. Also just trying to start on the project

  19. I rate myself a 3/5 . i have been on top of things but I need to quit procrastinating and start on my project.

  20. This week, I’d give myself a 4/5. I did get all of my work done in a timely manner, except when I turned in an assignment a few minutes late because the assignment never turned up on my computer. I also didn’t get much done in terms of the actual project, I’ve just been researching a lot and I really need to move on. The pace of the remote learning is just right though.

  21. This week I rate myself a 4/5. I did well on all my assignments and quizzes in classes but I did not make much progress on my project. I need to continue to make strides going forward.

  22. This week I rate myself a 1/5, I’ve done a good job keeping up with my assignments and the website but I am still failing to keep up with the messages being sent out about the project.

  23. I rate myself this week a 3/5. I have been experiencing difficulties with PSL, it never seems to want to work when I log on. Eventually most times it works but it is just kind of aggravating because I just want to get my work done. Also my wifi is not very good, so that has been a challenge. Overall though, I like doing online school.

  24. This week I rate myself a 2/5. I have not been wanting to do as much work since I could stay in bed all day and so my challenge has been motivation to do chemistry and the chemistry project. My success this week is taking the time tonight to get my life together and finally do some chemistry lol. I think we are going at a very reasonable pace I just don’t have any motivation to do anything.

  25. I’d rate a 2/5. Remote learning is fine, it’s just challenging to get the motivation to do anything. I like being able to learn at my own pace. I was successful in being able to complete all of my assignments so far.

  26. This week I’d rate myself a 3 out of 5. I say this because I always start off strong then get lazy during the week and forget when things are due. But I absolutely love learning at my own pace so no matter how much work I don’t feel overwhelmed because I’m doing it at my speed.

  27. I rate myself a 4/5 this week. I think I managed my time pretty well, and I felt like I did a good job balancing all my work between the days. Overall, I thought it was a good week

  28. I would rate myself a 4/5. This week has been pretty good and I have been able to pace myself in these classes and even get done early in some! I like the speed we are going, in all our classes.

  29. I’d rate my work this week at 4 out of 5. I fell behind with my project when I focused so much on required daily work (from other classes as well chemistry). Although it’s a little less work than a normal week, it feels the same to me because I have to make my own schedule, which I tend to procrastinate on. But I think I did well overall with following the set plan, and the speed we’re going with work is just right –it’s enough to keep up with learning but still work on the project, too.

  30. This week I would rate myself a 3/5 because I have slowed down in doing my project work due to getting used to the online work.

  31. I rate myself a 4/5 because I have been doing all of my assignments, but I am not constantly checking powerschool. I also have been working o my project, but not as much as I should be.

  32. Granted it is due to classes being dumbed down for remote learning, I have been loving this, I give the experience a 10/10 and myself on responsibility an 8/10. It is super convenient to just do classes when I feel motivated, get a full night’s sleep without worrying about being late, and best of all, I can work on each class at the same time. The pacing at the moment is great, and I would feel overwhelmed otherwise.

  33. I rate myself a 3/5 on this week, I was going slow with the project. I was struggling with reading the english book and making a good schedule for the week so i could focus on the project.

  34. I rate myself a 3/5. I’ve been slacking a little bit and I need to work on my project some more, but I’ve done well with the remote learning I think. I like the pace we’re working at.

  35. I rate myself a 3/5 this week. I was able to complete my work; however, I still dragged it on and waited till the weekend to finish it.

  36. I rate myself a 5/5. Due to my incredulous diligence, I have managed to come out of the first full week of remote learning victorious. I have kept up with my assignments whilst throughly understanding the content. I am beyond satisfied with the pace we are presently working at.

  37. I’d rate myself a 4/5 this week. I feel like I did a decent job of time management but I could have done a little better.

  38. I would rate 2/5 because I’m have not gotten anything done really on the project and I need to improve myself by working on it next week so I will not be in trouble when the due date approaches.

  39. I would rate myself a 2/5 this week. I was really busy this week and procrastinated on all my homework until the day it was due. And I am struggling a little bit to get the project done.

  40. I would rate myself a 4/5 this week because I got all my homework done. I really enjoyed how I was able to work at my own pace.

  41. This week I would rate myself 3/5. I understood the work and took notes, but I still had trouble with noble gas notation. The most challenging thing to work on at the moment is the project, and I don’t think we are going too slow or too fast, right now is just perfect.

  42. I would rate myself 2/5. I slacked off until the last minute and ended up missing an assignment. Next week I will do everything before the day of the deadline.

  43. This week i was probably a 1/5. i didn’t turn in a few assignments. But i plan on making reminders to make sure i turn in my stuff

  44. I would rate myself a 2/5 this week. I feel like since there is so much going on right now, it is hard for me to focus on school. I am having a hard time taking in what I am learning online. I also know I am behind on the project. In reality, we aren’t going too fast, but at this point in time, it feels like life is going at 1000mph.

  45. I rate myself a 3/5. I did all my work effectively, but I procrastinated more than I did last week. This next week I will try to do all of my work at the beginning. The pace is faster, but it is still not bad.
