Chemistry 9-20-11 Intro to Chemistry

CHEMISTRY: We’re finally starting what chemistry is all about! Here’s the lecture from Tuesday on the intro to chemistry. Good job making applications with the branches of chemistry and types of scientific work! Make sure you have the vocab down, and be sure you’re able to apply what you learned today. Can you tell the difference between quantitative and qualitative, intensive and extensive properties, physical and chemical changes, etc.? Can you give me examples?

BTW – Have you started learning the symbols of the elements? Is that something you’ve had to do in your other classes? Don’t forget to check out the earlier webpost on quizlet.com. It’s a great way to begin memorizing them! 🙂
