What We Are Doing
This month we are currently finishing the chapter on periodic trends. In this chapter I also included an introduction to chemical bonding. I did this in order to make the next chapter a little bit shorter. The exam for the chapter on periodic trends will be during the week of February 17th. As an introduction to the chemical bonding chapter, the students will be making crystals and attaching them to pipe cleaners so that they are chemically bonded. This will be a good start to how bonding works. With bonding, we will be going over ionic, covalent, and hydrogen bonding. We will also be going over polar and nonpolar solutions and why they mix or do not mix when put together.
