Hon Chemistry 5-8-23 Molecular Geometry HW & Intermolecular Forces, Pt 1

HON CHEMISTRY: So we’ve put it all together – Lewis structures, molecular geometry, dipoles, and bond type. Here’s our look at the homework worksheet. How’d you do?

After that, a beginning look at the importance of molecular geometry with solubility, and a beginning look at intermolecular forces. Lots of applications, from using peanut butter to get gum out of your hair to little fishes breathing dissolved oxygen. Let’s do more tomorrow!

Chemistry 5-8-23 Electron Configuration Notation & Blocks of the Periodic Table

CHEMISTRY: Wow! You learned a lot today! Don’t we serve an awesome God?!? You probably knew the periodic table was really organized, but did you realize that it was THAT organized? Awesome!

Then, just when you were getting the hang of drawing arrows, I go and change it! But don’t you think writing electron configuration notation is a whole lot shorter than doing orbital notation? Don’t get me wrong, knowing how to do orbital is great for seeing how the electrons are paired, but this way is waaaay shorter!

Be sure and practice with the homework tonight, and don’t forget to use the Aufbau “chart”!!!!

Chemistry – Your LAST Web Post Comment!!

Can you believe it?!? This is your LAST web post comment!! This is where you put it and here are the three things I want you to talk about:

1) How did chemistry grow you? What did you learn about yourself?
2) What advice do you have for future chemistry students?
3) What could we have done different this year that would have helped you learn chemistry better?

Can’t wait to hear from you!! 🙂
