Tues-Day 2
Bio 3/6- we took our unit exam on Biochemistry.
AP Chem- we discussed the behavior of gases at the particle level and why any ideally behaving substance will follow the gas laws. All gas phase substances have particles that collide with each other and the walls of the container with a particular force and frequency causing pressure in the container. We reasoned the relationship between moles of a gas and pressure (direct), temperature of a gas and pressure (direct) all in terms of collision frequency and average force of collisions.
We then wrote out the ideal gas law, examined the units and conversions, derived a similar version of the ideal gas law that solves from molar mass of the gaseous substance, and used the law in a stoichiometry problem.
We did a comprehensive review redox solution stoichiometry problem that we will continue tomorrow.
