How to prepare:
Unit Guides: Unit 1 includes Chapters 1,2,3 in our book but the Unit Exam is not from your book it is from AP. Check the "Unit 1 Unit Guide" (printed for you) and the "Course at a Glance" to see the topics covered in the Unit 1 exam (pink sheet I gave to you).
Log in to AP Classroom
Unit 1 - Each section has AP Daily Videos and Topic Questions. These can be used at any time to help you with AP Chemistry.
Assignments: I've assigned several practice problems and other resources. They have been assigned but will not be graded. They were assigned to ensure that you have access to all of the resources. The Test on Tuesday will be on AP Classroom so the questions will be very similar to the Topic Questions that have been assigned. Spend your time where you need the most practice/help.
Do each of the assigned problems and KNOW HOW TO ANSWER similar problems to what you are practicing. Recall that the exact questions on the practice problems will not show up on the exam but some will be VERY similar with different numbers.
If you don't know how to answer a certain type of question, refer back to your book to learn how to do it.
Help? I will be here every day before and after school to help and to answer your questions.

Prior to 1909, the atom was thought to be a sphere of positively charged particles with negative particles (named "electrons" by their discoverer, JJ Thompson). From 1909 to 1911, Ernest Rutherford and other scientists experimented by shooting alpha particles (Helium nuclei with no electrons) at thin sheets of gold (called "gold foil"). They noticed that many of the alpha particles went straight through but some of the particles did not. They were deflected when they encountered 'something' inside the foil. Because alpha particles are positively charged, Rutherford reasoned that there must be small positively charged objects inside the foil that were deflecting the small charged alpha particles. Shooting countless particles over numerous experiments, Rutherford was able to conclude that there is a positively charged nucleus at the center of an atom with electrons around the outside.
Watch this quick video on Instagram showing the Rutherford Experiment
Try out this amazing simulation by shooting Alpha particles at nuclei to see they are deflected.

Note: Our machines give us Absorbance so we DO NOT need to convert %Transmittance into Absorbance - yay for fancy lab equipment!!
Make a graph of concentration vs absorbance. Is it a straight line graph? Can we find a true line of best fit? If not, we need to plot it in different ways until we find a good straight line so we can solve for unknowns.

Day 1 - Introductory Activity
Lab Explanation and Clarifications
Overview
What are we doing in the Introductory Activity
I am giving you a solution of blue dye with a KNOWN concentration. You will then dilute this so that you have several solutions of blue dye at known concentrations.
The amount of light absorbed by each sample is recorded. The data is then plotted on a graph.
Using this information, we should be able to determine the concentration of blue dye in anything containing blue dye by putting it in our photospectrometer and determining its Absorbance. We plot the unknown samples Absorbance on our graph and it will tell us the concentration.
Cuvettes
Clean them thoroughly with lens wipes. Why?
Measuring and Pipettes
Be very accurate with measuring so your samples are the correct concentration. Why?
Plotting your data
Note: Our machines give us Absorbance so we DO NOT need to convert %Transmittance into Absorbance - yay for fancy lab equipment!!
Make a graph of concentration vs absorbance. Is it a straight line graph? Can we find a true line of best fit? If not, we need to plot it in different ways until we find a good straight line so we can solve for unknowns.

**Have both of these documents open as your do your Pre-lab. The clarifications sheet tells you what to write for each part of your lab and gives clarifications as needed.
Lab: Spectroscopy - Analysis of Food Dyes in Beverages (Lab Handout)
This is an AP lab. Parts of it are confusing and it is not in the same format as the non-AP labs so I've created a "Clarifications Sheet" to help you (see below)
Lab: Spectroscopy - Analysis of Food Dyes in Beverages (Clarifications Sheet)
Have this document open at the same time as the lab. This is where I put clarifications, pre/post-questions, conclusions, etc.
Coming up...
Friday: Post-Quiz debrief, Pre-Lab: Spectroscopy - Analysis of Food Dyes in Beverages (Lab Handout)
Monday: Lab - Spectroscopy - Analysis of Food Dyes in Beverages (Lab Handout)
What will we learn today? Refresh our memory on topics from Chemistry 1 in including moles, mole ratios, balancing chemical equations.
How will we know if we've learned it? I can develop a 'recipe' for a smoke cake based off the mole ratios presented
You may work with your lab partner on this quiz.
NO other tabs open. NO notes.
I will average the two quiz scores together.

Lecture Slides: Chapter 2.7 Spectroscopy and Electron Configuration Review
Due Thursday - Quiz is Thursday
Chapter 2 is all review from Chemistry 1 so we will do almost no lecture on these topics
Examine your Traffic Light Study Guide. Any yellow or red topics need to be reviewed on your own time so that you know the information in detail.
Read and take notes where needed.
Especially focus on Ch 2.6 Periodic Trends because your AP Periodic Table has limited info - knowing the trends will help you solve problems when the AP Periodic Table doesn't have info to help you!
We will lecture on 2.4: Principle Quantum Number and 2.7 Photoelectron Spectroscopy only
Notice: I did not assign practice problem - you need to do practice problems for the sections where you need to refresh your memory. I am giving you the opportunity to figure out what you need study and practice.
Study. Use the practice quizzes in EdvantageScience.com to help you prepare.
