I hope your study of gases went well and you are off to a good start on the topic of Thermochemistry!
Please read everything below carefully and let me know if you have questions.
Online Homework
I’ve received a few questions about the online homework wondering if it saves your answers if you do not complete the entire assignment. The answer is, yes it does, as long as you are logged in when you are doing the work.
If you only do part of an assignment and go back in to finish it later, that is fine, even though your answers from your previous section are not shown. Problems you have completed are outlines with a bold dashed line and your score on the problem is shown below the problem. A table at the top of the assignment also shows the problems you have completed. Please remember you are graded on your last attempt for each question.
The online homework assignment on Thermochemistry is due 2/27.
Quiz / Class Participations
I will be grading and returning quiz/participations 5 and 6 by email as I grade then throughout the rest of the week and weekend.
The quiz/participation 7 assignment on Thermochemistry is due 2/27.

There is detailed information about the exams at this link. Please read it carefully – it contains the answers to many frequently asked questions. Let me know if you have additional questions after reading it.
For this exam, you will be provided a copy of the Periodic Table for Units 1-3. A copy of the periodic table you will receive is at this link.
Additional Study Resources
Don’t forget to look at the Unit 2 – additional study resources page on this Website. It contains many resources to help you prepare for the exam. Please take a look at them. One of those resources is a practice exam. Please read more about the practice exam below:
Practice Exam
What the practice exam is:
This practice exam will be similar in length, number of questions, types of questions (multiple choice, short answer, numerical problems, etc) to your exam. The practice exam will be useful as a general review and will help you see how prepared you are. If the practice exam (without looking at your notes) is easy for you, the actual exam probably will be. If it is difficult, the actual exam probably will be.
What the practice exam is NOT:
The actual exam will NOT be the same as the practice exam with only a few numbers changed. Do NOT think that if you only study and memorize the questions on the practice exam that you will be ready for the exam because the questions will be the same.
