Thurs-Day 1
Physics - took our first unit exam, both parts. I'll have your multiple choice results for you tomorrow.
We will continue unit 2, straight-line motion, tomorrow. This unit involves determining distance, speed, and acceleration of objects and can be applied to a practically infinite number of life situations.
AP Chem - did a more complex percent composition to empirical formula problem involving a three-element compound. We reviewed each step, the meaning of empirical formula, and the limits to rounding the decimals in the calculations. (5th period also did atomic mass percent abundance problems that were covered in the 11th period class).
