3 Question Blog October 27, 2017

During the last two weeks we have competed and electron energy and light pogil. As well as a hope it floats practice and two flipped notes on unit 3. We also completed a flame test lab in class as well as a  light practice worksheet. I have recently learned that the colors are what makes the electrons unique. The energy absorbed or emitted from the process of electron promotion or demotion can also be observed as an overall color for the element. I plan on practicing the equations more to better my learning so that I get them down and know what exactly each symbol stands for.

3 Question blog #2 (September 15, 2017)

Recently we have completed a " Chemical vs. Physical properties and changes lab". This lab consisted of 10 different experiments. The first experiment consisted of a bunsuen burner and matches, each person in the group took a turn lighting the Bunsen burner. The second experiment consisted of Alka seltzer tablets, a graduated cylinder, a stopwatch and water. At this station we put the tablets in the water and observed what happened as well as answered questions. The third experiment consisted of cobalt II chloride, sodium phosphate, a small test tube, and empty beaker and a waste beaker. With these materials we first placed the test tube in the small empty beaker, then we transferred five drops of cobalt II chloride solution into the test tube. Then we answered a few observational questions and following those questions we added 5 drops of sodium phosphate in the test tube. We then answered more questions and cleaned up our station. Next was experiment four, at this station w...

3 Question blog #4 (October 13, 2017)

Within the last two weeks we have completed an Atom PHET sim packet, as well as exploring isotopes and average atomic mass lab. What I have recently learned is that the atomic mass of an element is the weighted average of the masses of the isotopes of that element. I plan on improving my understanding by actually learning the PHET packet materials as I go rather than just fill out the packet.

3 Question Blogs #1 ( September 1, 2017 )

Recently I completed a lab based on the density of pennies. During this assignment we had to complete a list of eight procedures. Each procedure had specific steps on how to conduct each part of the lab.  I first started off by recording the dates of the pennies, then I Put the pennies in chronological order oldest on top to newest on the bottom.  In groups of two's I weighed each set of pennies on the  balance pan to find their mass.  I recorded my data on the chart in my packet. After I waited all 14 pennies on the balance I filled a graduated cylinder (with water)  to the 30 ML mark. I then flip the pennies over and placed  them oldest to newest.  I then placed the oldest two pennies in the graduated cylinder and recorded the volume of the graduated cylinder. I repeated these steps until all 14 pennies were in the graduated cylinder. I recorded all of my results onto the data table.  With my data table completely filled out I went on to data an...
