Magic Number?

 

Gas Chemistry

During this portion of our course we'll examine gases in detail, measure them, manipulate them, and predict the future of them in our math problems.

We'll see several relationships between the pressure and volume of gases, the volume and temperature of gases, and the pressure and temperature of gases.  We'll be able to draw graphs of these relationships, and "get" what gases really are.

We'll review the Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases again, and recommit it memory.  We'll learn the difference between a real gas and an ideal gas (think of the difference between you and "a god"!).   We'll do a fabulous lab that was originally prepared by my college chem professor, Dr. Arden Zipp (cool last name).  We'll learn and learn, like there's no tomorrow!

The math is not too tough, there's really only 2 formulas and both are simple.  Everyone should find academic success.

The marking period ends on Friday 1-27 at 3PM when I leave school.  All work must be handed in by then.  What ever your "current grade" is on Friday night will be your grade forever on the report card.
