Chem 12: Thurs Apr 23 - pH and pOH

 Today we delved into pH and pOH (and all the fun logarithms behind them!). We took some notes and you had practice in 2 batches: pg. 139 #49-53 and pg. 141 #55-57. A few J.o.W. questions were discussed as well :)

Sci 8: Thurs Apr 23 - The Standard Model & Atom project time

 Today had a look at some tricky stuff! We had a look at the Standard Model of Particle Physics (the basics anyways)! Here is the notes sheet you received. We also watched a couple short videos on Quarks, and on the history of this model. After break we had some J.o.W. and you had time to work on your Atom Model Project.

HS 101: Wed Apr 22 - Class routines

 Today we got into some of our class routines: Quick Questions, Typing, and working in our project list. You had some time to work on the Using Onenote Project.

HS 101: Tues Apr 21 - Welcome to HS 101!

 Today we had our first class of High School 101! You had a chance to hear about the course and then you got to explore your digital notebook!

Chem 12: Tues Apr 21 - Finding Kb and Keq Intro

 Today we got to have some fun with K expressions. We took some notes on how to find Kb from the conjugate's Ka and Kw, and then how to find Keq for generic acid-base equilibria. Your practice was pg. 130 #35-37, and pg. 133 #38-46

Sci 8: Mon Apr 20 - Model Building Project

Today we had a look at the Atom Model Project. You got to brainstorm and plan out what materials you might need. Then we watched this video about the size of the atom, and we finished with some long overdue J.o.W.

Chem 12: Mon Apr 20 - Kw, Ka, Kb

 Today we re-galvanized for the final term of grade 12! Then we had a look at some equilibrium constants: Kw, Ka, and Kb. After the notes, you had practice on pg. 127 #30 * pg. 128 #31-34.

Chem 12: Fri Apr 17 - Strong/Weak Acids & Bases

 Today we welcome back our Bamfield friends! They jumped right in as we discussed Strong/Weak Acids & Bases. Practice on pg. 125 #21-27. Happy end of Term!

Sci 8: Fri Apr 17 - Atoms!

 After the QQQ today, we had a look at Atoms! We discussed some of the History of Atoms. Here is the Building an Atom activity! Afterwards, we took some summary notes.

Sci 8: Wed Apr 15 - Temp Change Lab!

 Today we had a lot of lab work! You worked on the Temperature During Phase Changes Lab (7-4 on pg. 256). Don't forget to include your graph, the questions from the textbook, and a conclusion. This will be due on Monday. If you finished, you also had time to complete the Density Lab from last day.

Chem 12: Wed Apr 15 - Unit 3 Test + Conjugates!

 This morning you wrote the Unit 3: Solubility Test! After that we had a look at Conjugate Acids & Bases with practice on pg. 119 & 121.

Chem 12: Tues Apr 14 - Bronsted Lowry

 Today we had another look at Acids & Bases by looking at the Bronsted-Lowry definitions. We took some notes and then you had practice on pg. 117 #11 & 12 and pg. 119 #13 & 14. Solubility Test tomorrow!

Sci 8: Tues Apr 14 - Density Lab!

 Today we had time to do the Density Lab! There will be some time tomorrow (during our next lab) to complete lab if needed.

Chem 12: Mon Apr 13 - Unit 4 intro

 Today we introduced Unit 4: Acid-Base Chemistry. We talked through our Key Questions and Reviewed Chem 11 definitions. Then you had some work/study time.

Sci 8: Mon Apr 13 - Density!

 Today we worked through Density as a way to measure particle compactness; we took some notes, did some practice on pg. 269, had a look at this visual of floating, and then you read pgs. 260 - 265.
