Bonding Review

     I definitely found this unit to be one of our hardest so far. So, to prepare for the test, I've compiled a list of websites to use for studying:

Bonding is Hard

     So far Bonding has been kinda hard for me. I walked up and introduced myself to chemical bonding, tried to strike a conversation, and was answered with a slap across the face. I'm having difficulty differentiating between molecular shape and molecular geometry. However, this is one of those times where I truly appreciate the internet. I found this video, and it's been helping me a lot.

Another One

     Today we begin another new unit: Chemical Bonding. As always, the first day was pretty easy; We just took notes on Lewis Dot Structures of an atom. However, I predict that this unit will slowly devolve into a mindless slurry of information, like always.

Happy Birthday Mrs. Frankenberg!

Today was Mrs. Frankenberg's birthday! To celebrate, we had a party with cupcakes and goldfish galore. Today also marks the end of Electronic Structure & Periodic Trends, and tomorrow will return us to a lecture day. I wish everyone good luck on the upcoming unit!

Unit Exam Reflection

This units final exam wasn't too hard. It certainly helped that I got an extra day to study when Mrs. Frankenberg moved the test to Friday. I think there was a good balance of hard and easy questions, and I hope that I did well.

Test Review

Tomorrow is our test, so I'd better study up! I've found some websites to help me study for it too. This site help explain all the periodic trends.
Electron Configuration was definitely the hardest chapter for me, so this site really helped me.
Plus a bonus site for quantum numbers.
