The course information resources listed below are to help you understand what is expected of you as you work toward a successful year in chemistry. Questions should be addressed to your teacher.
| Resource |
Description |
| Your Reading Journal |
This handout will help you understand how to organize and use your reading journal to best advantage. |
| Your Laboratory Notebook |
This handout will help you understand when to use your laboratory notebook, and how to organize and use use it to best advantage while working before, during, and following on laboratory activities. |
| Writing
a Scientific Report |
Writing scientific laboratory reports is a component of all science courses, not just chemistry. The form and format of the laboratory report, however, will differ somewhat from course to course. Learn what is expected from you when writing a chemistry laboratory report. |
| MSDS
Information and Resources |
Each reagent (chemical) used in the laboratory is profiled in a Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). Learn what is contained in each MSDS, and where to find them. |
Chemistry resources are contain useful information, but do not have "work"
that was expected to be turned in for credit. Some of the resources listed are
handouts and worksheets that were given to other chemistry classes; you may
still find them useful. For some material that I have distributed in accord
with a copyright agreement, I will send you to the source on the Internet, if
posting a copy on this website would be a violation of the author's copyright.
| Resource |
Description |
| Lewis
Structures, Formal Charge, and Resonance |
This handout connects Lewis Structures with Formal Charge and Resonance. |
| Lewis
Structures |
This handout gives an overview of Lewis Structures, and gives a brief
set of steps to follow that will help you draw and understand appropriate
Lewis structures. |
| Table
of Average Bond Enthalpy Values |
This is a compilation of data from various sources, all of which
are in the public domain. As yet another printable resource, it will also
be more convenient than the table of values in your book. |
| Standard
Enthalpy of Formation Table |
This is another compilation of data from various sources, all of which are
in the public domain. As a printable resource, it is somewhat more convenient
than the table of values in your book. |
| The
Saturation Vapor Pressure of Water |
This resource gives the saturation vapor pressure of water in the temperature
range of 15 °C to 30 °C. |
| Functional
Groups |
This list of functional groups contains all that were introduced in the
textbook, plus a few more that have biological relevance. |
| Solubility
Chart |
This handout is a partial list of solubility rules for common anions and
cations. Using your data from the Cornerstone lab activity, "Precipitation
Reactions" you will complete the last two columns. (Even when these
columns are filled in, this chart does not represent all of the ionic compound
solubility "rules".) |
Study Guides may be made available to students as an additional resource
to help is assigned to assist in studying, however, they are not intended to
serve as the sole source of information for the test.
| Study Guide |
Description |
| Cation Nomenclature |
This resource is a study guide covering the basics of the nomenclature
of cations. |
| Anion Nomenclature |
This resource is a study guide covering the basics of the nomenclature
of anions. |
| Naming
Chemical Compounds |
This resource is a brief description on the naming of inorganic chemical
compounds. |
