A metal reacts with a compound or a halogen reacts with a compound.  Some combinations do not react.  You must consult the activity series, p.130, to determine whether a reaction occurs.  Refer to p.126, 127, 130, 131 in the text for help.
Homework:  Answer p.127 #21; p.131 #22-24
 
Combustion reactions are reactions that have oxygen as one reactant.  Read p.123-124 including margins. 
Homework:  Answer p.124 #17-20
 
We discussed the tests for gases, and the results of dissolving oxides in water.  The major types of reactions are synthesis, decomposition, combustion, single displacement, and double displacement.  We reviewed the first two and added detail to what was learned in grade 10.  Look in the text on p.119-123.
Homework:  Answer p.122 #10-12; p.123 #15, 16; p.125#5, 6. 
There is a quiz tomorrow on nomenclature.
 
We did an experiment today to produce carbon dioxide and test it in various ways.  The handout for this lab is on the unit 2 page of this site, as "co2 experiment". 
Homework:  complete the discussion #1-3 for the experiment and answer p.29-30 #1, 3, 13
REMINDER:  Part II of the Hazardous Materials Assignment is due on Friday.
 
We reviewed balancing equations from Grade 10.  Refer to your text, p.112-116 for help, especially the steps to follow on p.116.
Homework:  p.113 #3, 4;  p.116 #5, 6;  p.117 #7; p.118 #9, 4, 5
Begin to do research for your Hazardous Materials Assignment Part II.  It is due next Friday.
 
The handout for these topics is on the unit 1 page of the site as "acid nomen handout" and "hydrates handout".  Complete the handouts with nomenclature practice for all the different types of compounds.  The one given out today can be found as "nomen practice".  Complete this for homework.
 
Assignments were due today.  Complete all nomenclature homework.
 
We learned how to write formulas from names of multi-valent metals using the "-ous-ic" method and how to name and write formulas of covalent compounds.  Handouts are found on the unit 1 page of this site as "ous-ic metal nomen" and "covalent nomen lesson".  Homework is on the handouts.
The unit test is tomorrow and the HazMat assignment is due tomorrow.
