Thurs-Day 1
AP Chem - we applied the time dependent rate laws to 0th, 1st, and 2nd order questions involving remaining concentrations, times, and half-lives.
We then discussed collision theory in order to establish the relationship between activation energy and the rate of a reaction at a given temperature, which leads to the Arrhenius equation.
Bio - we discussed the structures and functions of each of the parts of the respiratory system; the whole purpose of this system is to EFFICIENTLY facilitate the absorption of oxygen into the blood in alveolar capillaries and the excretion/removal of the metabolic waste gas, carbon dioxide.
