Adobe Acrobat Reader and its plug-in must be installed for the sample test links to fuction correctly. Alternatively, you can tell your browser to download the links to your disk using your browsers contexual menu (right click or control click).

During the semester we will talk about the following topics.

Using Significant Figures

Conversions

Nomenclature

strategies for naming compounds
strategies for determining formulae from names.

Atomic mass and Molar mass of elements and molecules

Using elemental analyses and combustion analyses to determine molecular formulae.

Stoichiometry

Reactions that occur in solution

Units of concentration: molarity and molarity problems
Stoichiometry of dissolution

Gas Laws

Energy and enthalpy

Atoms; electrons and orbitals (go here to view atomic orbitals).

Bonding

Ionic vs. covalent bonding
Bond dissociation energy
Lewis structures
VSEPR
New VSEPR pages
Polarity
