Seventh Week Assignments due on March 24:

1. Topic 7 - On-line Discussion: Do the readings in the text book and correlate that with the Topic 7 Alternate Energy Sources. This week the report of the week is on an alternate energy source.  The content questions are on different types of batteries.

 

2. EXAM # 2 is available on-line and is due this week. Various Format Versions of the Exam. Last time everyone did a pretty good job in getting the exam turned in on time. Please try again for an on time effort for this one. I prefer that everything be done by Wednesday evening by midnight, possibly on Thursday yet.

The exam answers are found in one form or another in the textbook, sometimes I give reference pages, other times you will have to find the info yourself. The index can be useful. Sometimes the answers will require an application of a concept or principle found in the text. In a few cases if you think more than one answer may be possible, reference your thinking with exact page numbers, I may be persuaded to give you the points in question. For the NY TIMES questions, you should find 90 - 100% of the answers right in the news article. Otherwise search diligently for the multiple choice answers - last time people missed way to many multiple choice questions.

Students ARE NOT PERMITTED to share information or check answers on exams. Very minor clarifications may be discussed. The honor system applies.

If you have questions about any exam questions, I will be available for clarifications, and maybe a few hints, so please send email questions.

 

Looking Ahead....in all of your spare time....

 

3. You may get started early and complete HOME Lab # 4 - Acids and Bases in the Household and Acid Rain. Hope you captured some rain in the past couple of weeks. We are not getting too much. You could also try a dew sample.
As I have been alerting you need to get the pH of some rain and other water samples by April 7.
