AP Chem - from experimental data tables showing the initial rate of reaction for given initial concentrations of reactants, we went through an informal method of trying various exponents in order to deduce the rate law of a given reaction, which we could then relate to the possible mechanisms for a given reaction.
We returned to our derived time-dependent rate law equations for first order kinetics; we applied the equation to two examples in which we got the half-life time from the rate constant or vice-versa; we also used our derived equation ( better than the reference table equation) to determine the time for a certain fraction or percentage of a reactant to be used up or to remain (careful about the fraction used!).

Bio - we detailed the causes and effects of the various diseases or disorders of the circulatory system.
We began the state lab on experimental design: Making Connections.
