Frozen dihydrogen monoxide closes school!
Will you please join me in signing a petition to ban the chemical, dihydrogen monoxide?
This chemical is responsible for so much harm on our planet! DHMO is the NUMBER ONE greenhouse gas (as in the "greenhouse effect" that is linked to climate change), DHMO is the most abundant chemical found in ALL cancerous tumors, DHMO can cause suffocation, if it builds up in a person's lungs. Sleeping on this chemical causes night-long discomfort.
In it's frozen, slippery form, DHMO is a causal factor in many auto accidents and it also has been responsible for the grounding of many airplanes.
Can we do something about this chemical please???
AP Chem -assuming that we will have school on Thursday, we will have our Kinetics unit exam on FRIDAY, weather and snow plows permitting.
We are falling further behind so we have to get right into equilibrium!
There is a winter vacation assignment on Organic Chemistry names/formulas, functional groups, and reaction types. Practice tests and tutorials will be posted on Blackboard.
I will also post Equilibrium Unit tutorials that you must preview so that we can make up the lost time after vacation.
