Thurs-Day 1

AP Chem- we took the Unit 3 Moles and Stoichiometry exam, which is one of the harder exams given the amazing variety of applications of the mole. That is the reason for telling you that it is insufficient to just know the concepts or meanings of terms or formulas; you must practice each type of application until you can do each problem type quickly and accurately. That is also one of the reasons for the great time demand of this course; there is never "no homework". Whether you are re-copying and reading the notes or doing practice tests and worksheets, you must regularly/daily reinforce the class material.
Tomorrow, we begin the Gases unit, which starts with stoichiometry by using the ideal gas law; then we focus on the ideal gas law, properties of real gases, and kinetic-molecular theory.

Bio 6/7- we did two pages of review questions on DNA and transport. We then finished our discussion of the cell membrane/indicator part of the state lab.
We began a microscopy lab by observing cells in various phases of mitosis.

Bio 8-
we did two pages of review questions on DNA and transport and then drew an analytical picture of a chromosome to distinguish the terms chromatid, gene, allele, nucleic acid, and nucleotide.
