What's going on in class 12/10-12/21

Winter Break is just around the corner!

IB Chemistry
We are wrapping in Thermochemistry right now with a test Tuesday 12/11.  It will be an IB-style test which means quiet, on your own, no notes, generously curved at the end.

Then, we'll do a quick review of Kinetics (aka Reaction Rates) with yep- another IA!  I know that's exciting news.  This one you will do a full-on complete IA from start to finish.  You will have 2 days in class to collect data and refine your procedure, but the rest will need to be done outside of class- due Thursday 12/20.

Finally, we'll start a short unit on Equilibrium, Acids & Bases before the break and will finish it afterwards.  You will have homework over the holiday- stay tuned.  Also stay tuned for midterm information.  It will be a real, but cut down IB exam with multiple choice and essay taken in 90 minutes.

This is a real push time- one of two this year.  Hang in there, do your best, and be your smart self.
