_Although a product of a double displacement reaction may form a precipitate according to the solubility table, concentrations of the ions may be low enough that no precipitate actually forms. Refer to p.487-490 in the text for help.
The unit test will be next Wed., Dec.15.

Homework: Read p.482-483 and answer p.486 #2-4
Unit Test next Wed., Dec.14.
_If you get a cubic equation to solve from an ICE table problem in which K is very small, then you make assumptions to simplify the equation. Read the examples in the text on p.472-475.
Homework: p.476 #7, 8; p.481 #4
_Given initial concentrations and the K value, you can calculate equilibrium concentrations of substances in an equilibrium system. Refer to the examples in the text on p.469-470 and p.476-478 on how to use an ICE table.
Homework: p.481 #2, 5, 6ab, 7
_At equilibrium, the concentrations of reactants and products are related in a mathematical formula that produces a constant value. The lesson slideshow is on the unit 4 page. Consult the text, p.439-448 and p.463-464.
Homework: p.445 #5, 6; p.449 #3, 4, 8, 9; p.465 #1, 2
