- For those of you who think you may progress to Parts 2 and 3, you may want to have a look at FR and Lab samples (posted on the olympiad page - with answers)
Fri Mar 11 - Extra help available, sign up in class.
In Class we did,
- molecular geometry
- Hybridization Theory
- Please get reading and looking at the diagrams in chapter 9 pages 315-343. In particular, there are lots of pictures and diagrams. Look at all of them and read the captions. It will be well worth the time spend looking at all the pictures and reading the captions of those pictures in within those pages (skipping the later sections - reading pgs 315-342)
- Do problems 15 & 16 on pg 357
