Breaking down sugar bonds with various substances…

MH shares her words of wisdom with you all… I’m doomed.

From Maybry and Ashley’s lab… Maybry: Breaking Down Sugar If you didn’t finish Lab 2 today, brainstorm on what you may need to do/bring for tomorrow! Let’s try to have these labs (with finished lab reports) finished up by Friday. Enjoy!

Here are the slides (with brief explanations by me) from today: Chemical bond – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: “A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms or molecules that allows the formation of chemical compounds, which contain two or more atoms.” Study and enjoy the universe!

Compare Ionic and Covalent Compounds This week, we’ll be continuing our studies of matter by looking at how electron dot diagrams and the periodic table help us figure out what types of bonds certain elements will make. Watch the vid above for a little preview. Should be fun!

Made a quick video with pointers for our lab this week (my puppy Macy makes an appearance)…

Here are our notes from today’s class: Also check out this handy video on valence electrons if you need extra help (it’s worth your time!).

Today we started working on our second lab (which is also Test 3). We’ll wrap this up quickly as we head into our studies of bonding. – Lab 2: Closed Reaction Chamber Start Date: September 22, 2010 Your Goal: Design and build a closed chamber in which sugar can be broken down. Your Structure Must: [...]

Halp? Get it working and I’ll give 4 points Extra Credit on one of the 10 tests!
