4/11/2007 Period 2 and 3 4/12/2007 period 6

Hi class,
Your homework tonight was to do problems #21-24 on page 642.

Your second assignment is to take the list of food additives you created in class from the food labels shown on the screen, and write in the reason the additive is used. Your list should have 18 food additives. I added a link to a website containing a list of food additives. Look to the left for the link.

Your recipes are due next Wednesday for period 6 and Thursday for Periods 2 and 3. Remember you must have the report, and the dish to participate.

And lastly, your final papers are due the 1st week of May.

4/4/2007 Period 6 and 4/5/2007 Periods 2 and 3

Page 641 #15-19.
In addition your recipes will be due on 4/19 or 4/20. Remember only those who bring in report and dish will be allowed to partake of the food that day.
No report that day: you will take a written test on Unit 7
No dish: You will have study hall.

4/2/2007 and 4/3/2007

You home work was Page 641 1,3-8.
Start thinking about your recipes.
Finish up final draft of research papers due April 28, 29.

3/7/2007

Period 2 and Period 3:
Page 617 #1-15

3/5/2007

No new homework. Make sure to schedule any retakes before Friday. Also any missing work MUST be in by Wednesday.

Period 6 2/12/2007 and Period 2 and 3 2/13/2007

AYour homeowrk is to work on lab reports. And read Unit 7A.

Homework 2/5/2007 and 2/6/2007

Today was a lab day. Your homework tonight is to answer the questions in the lab handout. I will collect it next class.

Period 2 and 3 1/19/2007

Today we began our discussion of branched chain alkanes, and isomers. You did an activity in class that asked you to make and draw structures for butane, pentane, and hexane, and to make structures and draw some of their possible isomers.
Next class we will work on naming using IUPAC rules. Your only homework is to read the handout.

1/10/2007 Period 2 and 3 1/11/2007 Period 6

Hey guys,
Sorry its been awhile since my last post. New change. I will post info about class today in addition to homework:

Daily Check:
What is a hydrocarbon. Give one example.

In class:
We had an activity in which you were asked to examine 23 items, to determine which items were made from petroleum.
Next we talked about the naming of the first 10 alkanes:

Number of carbons Name
1 Methane
2 Ethane
3 Propane
4 Butane
5 Pentane
6 Hexane
7 Heptane
8 Octane
9 Nonane
10 Decane

Next I talked about intermolecular forces, and how they affect the state the compond is in: Gas liquid or solid.
Then I talked about the boiling point of a compoun beind related to the strength of intermolecular forces and the size of the molecule.

Homework:
Using the table on page 220 in your book, you were asked to plot the boiling point of the first 10 alkanes as a function of the number of carbons. You graph should have the number of carbons (1-10) on the x axis, and the boiling points on the y axis. Be careful some of the boiling points are negative. Next draw a line through the point, and predict the boiling point for the 12 carbon molecule dodecane.
Lastly for extra credit, I asked you to use the formula CnH2n+2 to write the names for the next 4 larger molecule, those containg 13-16 carbons.
Come see me for help if you need it. I can also how you how to doe graph in Excel if you want. Sign up on tutoring log.

See you
