Chem 100L Lab

• The next quiz will cover the experiment and activity that we did last week (Exp 7 and Act 8).
• Next week's lab is only one activity (Act 9 - Stoichiometry) and no lab.

• Exam 2 is Wednesday, March 17. It covers Chapters 3 and 5, mostly, plus any of the topics from earlier in the semester.
• Office hours: Monday, 3/15/2010, at Panera.

Chem 100L Lab:

• Activity 06, Molecular Models: If you're in the lecture section, you'd benefit by doing this activity PRIOR to the exam.
• Experiment 06, Reactions: Writing out the equations for this experiment PRIOR to the exam will also be quite helpful.

Chem 100 Lecture: This week we'll cover Chapter 3.

Chem 100L Lab: Experiment 3. Do the pre-lab before you arrive. Elements project report is due this week as well.

Chem 100 Lecture: Exam 1 is on Feb 17. Check the Notes pages for answer keys to the in-class exercises. Let me know if you have any questions. I'll be checking email all weekend.

Chem 100 students (LECTURE): No homework due on Monday, but you should be reading Chapter 1 and trying the problems at the end of the chapter (in addition to the problems that I have suggested previously. You can also try those the problems on the list of Discussion Questions that I passed out in class on Wednesday.

Now's the time to learn how to do these conversion probems, so please ask questions, so you don't get behind.

If I give you an add code, I recommend that you actually add the course BEFORE the add deadline of February 5th. In fact, if you don't add by then, you're out, and I can't help you get back into the course.

Welcome to Fundamentals of Chemistry

Our lecture meets on Mondays and Wednesdays at 8:00 am.

If at all possible, you should sign up for one of my Chem 100L lab sections. They meet on M or W at 9:35 am, right after class. If you're in a different lab section, then it's more likely that the lecture and labs will be out of synch, and any references to the labs that I make in lecture (or references to the lecture that I make in lab) would have less relevance and less benefit toward your learning. One of the lab sections (Wed morning) is wide open at this writing (12/28) and you could easily transfer into it if it fits your schedule. Good luck.

I look forward to meeting you soon
