AP Chemistry Daily Goals 2015 2016 I will identify my responsibilities as an important contributor to our classroom learning community. On Monday August 3, I will demonstrate my understanding of the importance of practicing safe laboratory procedures. I will apply those procedures to prepare a copper chloride sample for dehydration. On Tuesday August 4, 2015 I will participate in an individual and table team success analysis. I will continue to demonstrate my understanding of the importance of practicing safe laboratory procedures. I will apply those procedures to prepare a copper chloride sample for dehydration. On Wednesday August 5, 2015I will analyze my copper chloride sample to determine the percent and molar water content. I will contribute team success factors toward building a classroom learning community. On Thursday August 6, 2015 I will analyze my copper chloride sample to determine the copper content. I will also determine the empirical formula of my original copper chloride compound. On Friday August 7 I will finish final data collection and write my hydrate lab report. I will also demonstrate my proficiency at writing chemical formulas and naming compounds. On Monday August 10 I will determine the formulas of my hydrate and do a critical error analysis. I will also apply what I learned from the hydrate lab to compare mass ratios in a carbonate determination. On Tuesday August 11 I will convert my carbonate sample into a chloride compound. I will also attend an optional writing balanced equations part at 7:05 AM or 3:25 PM. On Wednesday August 12 I will measure my final chloride product and use the mass ration to determine the identity of my unknown. On Thursday August 13, I will check my understanding of predicting, writing, and balancing equations. Finally, I will begin to practice measuring and calculating with significant digits. On Friday August 14, I will demonstrate my proficiency at predicting products and writing balanced chemical equations. On Monday August 17 I will identify my responsibilities as an important contributor to our classroom learning community. I will differentiate between solvation, dissolution, hydration, dissociation, and ionization. I will also differentiate between strong, weak, and nonelectrolytes On Tuesday August 18 I will demonstrate my mastery of the concepts of dissolution, solvation, dissociation, and ionization by participating in a clicker team challenge. I will also attend an optional significant digits party at 7:05 AM or 3:25 PM. On Wednesday August 19 I will measure and explain differences in conductivity between ionic, molecular, & acidic compounds. I will also measure and explain the changes in conductivity when solutions are mixed. On Thursday August 20, I will finish conductivity measurements and explain differences in conductivities between and within classes of compounds. I will also become aware of how error in measurements combine when two or measurements are combined. On Friday August 21, I will demonstrate my proficiency at measuring and calculating in significant digits (aka…QUIZ). On Monday August 24, I will also differentiate between complete molecular, complete ionic, and net ionic equations. On Tuesday August 25, I will test my predictions of precipitation reactions in the laboratory. On Wednesday August 26, I will apply net ionic equation to acid base and gas evolution reactions. On Thursday August 27, I will compare Arrhenius and Bronsted-Lowry definitions of acids and bases. On Friday August 28, I will write redox half reaction to show that the movement of electrons or electron density is the real reaction. On Monday August 31, I will report solution concentrations in molarity. I will also use molarity to solve solution stoichiometry problems. On Tuesday September 1, I will use my laptop to collect pH data during an acid base titration lab. I will graph the data in order to determine the equivalence point and calculate the concentration of unknown acid. On Wednesday September 2, I will practice answering free response test questions taken from previous years AP Exams. I will finish making stoichiometric calculation in my notes. I will also bring my laptop to class so that I can turn in my lab graph and data via ItsLearning. On Thursday September 3, I will attend an option 7:05 test preparation help session. I will bring my laptop to class to practice multiple choice test questions taken from previous AP exams via ItsLearning. On Friday September 4, I will attend an optional 7:05 test preparation help session. I will demonstrate my mastery of expression chemical reactions in aqueous solutions by acing the chapter 4 exam.
