Study for test from 2nd sheet of quiz (see below) and all quizzes,
Prepare Science Reports for Friday
Learn these facts for the test and final exam: ·
Carbon footprint is measured in kilograms of carbon dioxide ·
Physical properties of petroleum ·
More carbons result in higher molecular forces and higher boiling points ·
Same molecular formula but different structural formula? (isomer or isotope?) ·
Alkenes have double carbon-carbon bonds; Alkanes have single carbon-carbon bonds ·
When counting shared electrons is covalent bonds, each electron is counted twice (in
methane, once for the carbon’s completed outer shell and once for the hydrogen’s
filled outer shell) ·
In CH2OH = OH represents the alcohol. ·
Learn by heart how to use the periodic table to figure out all of the following for each element: a)
How many protons, neutrons, and electrons
Molar mass (units = g/mol)
How many electrons in each shell
How many electrons each element wants to lose or gain to have a complete outer shell e)
How many oxygen atoms each metal will combine with f)
And so much more!
