Fri-Day 2

Bio 3 and 6- we discussed the differences between living and formerly living (dead) organisms and determined that the moment of death occurs when the collection of molecules that make up the organism becomes INSUFFICIENTLY organized. All living or once living organisms are made up of cells.

AP Chem- we discussed lab safety regarding the use of Bunsen burners and also the proper cleanup of acid-base spills. We "dissected" the Bunsen burner and walked through each of the common errors and corrections. We then drew out the chemical equations involved in each of the scenarios i.e. complete combustion, incomplete combustion, decomposition of methane.
We wrote the net ionic equation for the neutralization of an acid by the weak base, sodium hydrogen carbonate (baking soda).
