BCUSP 162A   General Chemistry III

Spring 2010                   General Assignment #8                    May 12

Reading Assignments and prep work for class:

• For Monday, May 17
• Note that SA5 does not contain background “model” information:  you must read Zumdahl first.
• To prepare: Read Zumdahl Ch 17, Pages 847-70.  The SA5 indicates you can skip section 17.4.   However, you need the first part of that section through page 862.
• Complete the “Key Questions of Supplementary Exercise, SA#5.  You will need to have read Zumdahl before completing the Key Questions. 
• To facilitate group discussion, communicate with your group before class to see that you understand these questions.  If you have questions you cannot answer, please post them either to the bulletin board:
  https://catalysttools.washington.edu/gopost/board/jackels/15737/

or to the class listserve: bcusp162a_sp10@u.washington.edu.

o You may also, of course, send me questions about the material.  I will typically respond by posting the question and my followup to the class listserve or bulletin board.  If your group has a question, surely others do as well.

o The daily quiz on May 17 will draw upon the key Questions of SA5 and closely related material from Zumdahl 17.

• For Wednesday, May 19
• Read Zumdahl Section 17.7.
• Prepare Key Questions for SA6.  This is similar to SA5, but represents an extension to include the van’t Hoff factor.
• The daily quiz on May 19 will draw upon the Key Questions of SA6.

After Classes:  Always complete the exercises and problems for the active learning exercise(s) if you did not get them finished in class.  It is important to complete these as they will be checked at the exams  Remember to go back over every activity we have done and complete the problems and exercises.  Be sure to show work and logic or credit will not be given.

Written Homework :  Homework HW5 will be due electronically on  May 22.
