Today, Mr. Whittington talked to us about his AP Biology class and what to expect. He basically said the same things that Dr. Bautista said yesterday about AP Chemistry. After that, we reviewed some equations and balanced them in class. Ill do my best to illustrate it on this blog...
Unbalanced equation: C12 H22 O11 + O2----->12CO2+H2O
Balanced equation: C12 H22 12O11 +O2-----> 12CO2+11H20
This equation is a combustion because the equation yields CO2 and H2O
We will be having a test on THURSDAY so keep studying now since we also have an algebra test the same day!!!
Tonights HW: Pg. 292 #'s 37-47

Here's a worksheet on balancing chemical equations if you need more practice on it.

ReplyDeleteRemember that combustion reactions always yield the products carbon dioxide and water

in Mr. Whittington's AP Biology class, we will have summer reading and awesome field trips, also we will have to clean the fish tank and feed the fish, and other stuff with the fish
ReplyDeleteThis is a website that helps you practice balancing equations.

Lot's of balancing equation work problems:

the first semester of Mr.Whittigtons AP Biology will consist of basically our entire honors bio course last year. The second semester is going to be a lot of brand new studies though.
