LARN 041 C11D1
Start the following in class:
1. In your Journal Notebook write your journal entry on sheets of three holed 8.5 inch by 11 inch ruled paper. In the upper right corner white space of each upward facing page, use a blue or black pen to write your hand in number within a circle followed by your name. To the left of the marginal line, print J41 and circle it. Each journal entry should either be at least a paragraph of exemplary writing and penmanship concerning a single topic, or be a concept map relating chemistry terms. Begin each day’s paragraph with a topic sentence, follow with explained instances, and close with a focused summary statement. The required journal focus question J41 for today is
a. State the Pauli exclusion principle.
b. State Hund’s rule.
c. Give an electron configuration for a neutral atom of an element whose atomic number is less than 23 and whose outermost electrons demonstrate the Pauli exclusion principal.
d. Give an electron configuration for a neutral atom of an element whose atomic number is less than 23 and whose outermost electrons demonstrate Hund’s rule.
2.a. Go to https://socratic.org/chemistry to research the topics brought up in section 5.3 of your text, OR use the PQ5R or SQ5R method to prepare a study guide for section 5.2 of your chemistry text on Electron Arrangement in Atoms. Read section 5.2 in your chemistry text, pages 133 through 137, and as you do, create a study guide using the SQ5R or PQ5R method explained in class and on the distributed handout packet. Or, if it will save you time, write a question for the section, read the section for the main idea and write a summary paragraph when you are done reading. You may record vocabulary entries in the body of your study guide, or you may check them off on the chapter 5 vocabulary list as you think about the meanings of the terms and add any notations to the vocabulary list for clarifications sake.
2. b. Writing in blue or black ink, place your hand in number in a circle followed by your name in the upper right white space of a piece of three holed composition paper in your learning log that hasn’t been written on. Place the page reference for the problems to be considered to the left of the red marginal line on the first blue line. Centered on the first blue line, write a descriptive title for the learning activity such as Section [chapter #.section#] Responses. Before you write your response to each question or problem listed below, write its designation to the left of the red marginal line as listed below, followed by your response in ink to the right of the marginal line.
- Study Conceptual Problem 5.1 on page 135 and then show your work for practice problems I5-8a, b, and c (In chapter 5, problem 8a, b, and c) and I5-9a and b.
- In the Section Assessment 5.2 on page 136, read, analyze, and show your work for practice problems I5-10, I5-11, I5-12, and I5-13.
- After you are finished, check page R85 of the text and check each of those problems that you can by writing in either a check mark (√) or a correction in green ink. Some questions do not have a suggested response given. For each such question, circle the number of the question in the margin of your notebook paper and check your response when you come to class.
Recommended for those who have time left in their 45 minute study period, but not required of all:
1. Review and reinforce your command over certain important concepts.
a. Review the meanings of the words on the chapter 1, chapter 2, chapter 3,chapter 4, and chapter 5 vocabulary lists. Place a – symbol in front of each word that you have to study more, and a change the – to a + symbol in front when you have demonstrated mastery over the word to a study buddy, parent, or friend.
b. Check out the student made Quizlet for chapter 5 at https://quizlet.com/166021551/honors-chem-ch-5-flash-cards/. Do all the definitions reflect a thorough and correct understanding?
c. Study the Key Concepts given on page 33, page 57, page 95, page 121, and page 148 of the text.
d. Study the SI prefixes and their meanings until you can readily explain the meaning of each listed SI prefix as a numerical multiplier.
