Stoichiometry Unit 5

This unit is on stoichiometry.  You will be studying chemical formulas, reactions, equations and the mole concept. There will also be some work done learning mass and gaseous volume relationships; the ideal gas equation. Chapter 8 complete questions 1 to 35 odd.  Chapter 9 complete questions 1 to 29 odd.  There are many online videos that can help you learn stoichiometry.  Outside of what we learn in class, I suggest using khan academy or brightstorm to 'pick it up the first time' and reviewing with the IB style thornley videos or crashcourse... see links below.  Continue to work on memorizing ions from the previous unit if you have not learned them all yet. You will use them throughout the rest of the year. Keep memorizing ions!  Test on 2/26

 In addition to study of the text and your class notes you should consider the internet, especially YouTube chemistry channels, an essential part of learning chemistry well.  WATCH THE VIDEOS... you will slowly build important concepts...

Students who are not prepared in math skills are the students who struggle the most and have to spend the most time on chemistry.  If you are not concurrently enrolled in algebra 3-4 or above you may not really have the prerequisite math ability for chemistry.  Students in geometry will need to spend more time on problem solving parts of chemistry, especially in the second semester, to keep up.
