Wednes-Day 2
AP Chem - we did an acid buffer problem with the initial conditions of the conjugates in separate beakers containing different volumes and molarities of conjugates. In these cases, you must calculate the initial concentrations of the conjugates, which are diluted relative to before they were mixed, due to the greater new solution volume. Then you must check that the concentrations are in the buffer ratio range or 1/10 to 10/1.
We then looked at the derivation of the base version of the H-H equation starting with a generic Kb expression. We then applied the equation to a basic buffer problem.
We also discussed the maximum and minimum buffer pH for a given pair of conjugates.
Bio - we looked at the structures and functions of the various parts of the female reproductive system.
We then began our first look at the hormonal feedback mechanisms that control/regulate the female reproductive cycle.
