Scientists to know for chemistry
The following is a list of scientists you need to know for the exam and for the SOL test.
Make a review including the scientist’s name and their contribution to chemistry. It can
be a Word document, a PowerPoint, flash cards, or other review method. Most of the
contributions are in your book, but you may also use the Internet. A neat feature of
Google is called the Wonder Wheel. Search the scientist’s name, go under options, and
pick Wonder Wheel. Save the project to your computer and put the file in the digital
drop box.
