We spent time reviewing material on the test.  Look on the website unit 1 page to find a list of the topics you need to know for the test in "review questions", and a link to some help with nomenclature called "nomenclature flowchart".  There is extra help at lunch on Monday.

We wrote a practice quiz on ionic compound nomenclature.  We learned how to name and write formulas of covalent compounds.  The handout is found on the unit 1 page of this site as "covalent nomen lesson".  Homework is on the handout, and the Greek prefixes are on p.105.  Your ionic and covalent compound lab report was due today.

The handout for these topics is on the unit 1 page of the site as "acid nomen handout" and "hydrates handout".
Homework:  answer the questions on the handout;  lab report is due - conclusion only

We did an experiment to decide from evidence whether each of 5 unknown substances was ionic or molecular.
Homework:  Copy the tables on p.67 and  p.93 into your notes; complete the lab report to hand in Thursday.

We used inter-particle bonds to explain a number of properties, such as boiling point, solubility in water, odour, and state at room temperature.  Text reference is p.90-93.  There was a flowchart used in class to determine which type of inter-particle force a compound has.  It can be downloaded from the unit 1 page of the site.  It is called "interparticle forces flowchart".
Homework:  p. 74 #6; p.84 #6; p.94 #6

Your unit test is Monday, October 3.  Review questions for the test include:  p.154-157 #6-9, 11, 15-24, 28-30 not looking at values for atomic radius, I.E., E.A - just trends, 39 no design, 40ab, 44, 45, 49, 51, 52; In sentences, explain which would have the higher electron affinity, an atom of chlorine, or an atom of bromine, using terms such as shielding effect, net nuclear charge, core electrons, and/or valence electrons.

A review of naming and writing formulas of compounds from grade 10 was done for ionic compounds.  See p.95-103, 104-105 in your text for help and download the review lesson and some practice questions from the unit 1 page of this site, as the PDF file "ionic nomen lesson".
Homework:  complete the questions on the handouts

There are two main types of compounds:  ionic and molecular.  Molecular compounds can have either polar molecules or non-polar molecules.  The particles in each type of compound have different strengths of attraction, which we can use to explain a number of properties, such as boiling point, solubility in water, odour, and state at room temperature.
Text reference is p.90-93.  The Power point slide show is on the unit 1 page of this site and is called "interparticle bonding lesson".
Homework:  p. 74 #6; p.84 #6; p.94 #6;

You should be able to use electronegativities and shape to predict whether a molecule is polar or non-polar.  For help, see p.88-91 in your text. 
Homework:  p.94 #1-4, 7; complete the Lewis symbols and questions from your Molecular Models handout

We learned to use electronegativity values of each element to determine whether the electrons in a covalent bond are equally or unequally shared.  Consult p.71-74, 85-86 in the text for help with this.
We did a molecular model-building activity.  If you were absent today, download the model-building activity from the unit 1 page of the website, in order to complete the Lewis diagrams for the models you will be building.
Homework:  p.84 #1-4; p.86 #11-13
