In Class we did,
- do quick LAD 2.4 - Nuts & Bolts as a Model
- go over LAD Safety Posters
- finish LAD 2.3 - Separation of Mixtures
- discuss issues / problems / flow chart
- PRS - metric
- ppt NS 2.3 - mixtures, solutions
- PreLAD discussion of viscosity
- do LAD 5.1 - Density of Liquids
- Prepare LAD 2.3 to hand in. Data Table and Flow Chart
- some of you may need to read and study a bit more in chapter 2
- need to review metric conversions? Do so. Use NS 5.1 and work P 5.1
- Reread LAD 5.1 - Density of Liquids. We will do it on Wed
Wed Feb 3 - Extra help available, sign up in class.
In Class we did,
- hand in LAD 2.3 - Mixtures. Data Table and Flow Chart.
- PreLAD 5.1: viscosity, group measurements, preview, remember to consider Questions to Ponder
- do LAD 5.1 - Density of Liquids
- PLEASE email your name & partner’s name & Period # and send me 5 numbers: the average density for each substance measured in 10 ml cylinder - water, alcohol, oil, corn syrup AND send your single density with volumetric flask. Thanks - I’ll make a class data sheet.
- read NS 5.6 - Error analysis (before answering questions 4-6 on the LAD 5.1)
- Process the data and answer the questions (jot your answers down on the back of your data table) to Ponder for LAD 5.1 -
- read the Archimedes Cartoon on the Ch 5 homepage
Thurs Feb 4 - Extra help available, sign up in class.
In Class we did,
- do NS 5.3 - Significant Figures
- do LAD 5.2 - Displacement
- Outside of class you should,
- Work your way all the way through question 6 on LAD 5.2 - Displacement (Do not continue on to page 2 - we will do that in class on Fri)
- Practice significant figures by working the sample exercises on pg 2 of NS 5.3 - Significant Figures
- get even more practice by working P 5.2 - Sig FIgs
- Print, read and do the PreLAD for LAD 5.3 - Density of Solids (Be sure and read the Questions to Ponder as well.)
Fri Feb 5 - Extra help available, sign up in class.
In Class we did,
- finish LAD 5.2 - Displacement
- discuss data table & put up sample data then do LAD 5.3 - Density of Solids
- Process the data for LAD 5.3 - Density of Solids (Do your graphs on excel or some other spreadsheet / graphing program) (I have posted the extra data you were to copy down in class. If you missed it, I’ve posted on ch 5 document page as LAD 5.3 - Extra Data) Don’t forget to include (0,0) as a data point for each set of data.
- review “What makes a good graph.” This document (it is NOT called NS 7 any more) is on the top of the ch 5 document page. AND you may find the Excel help document (NS 5.10) helpful (Don’t be afraid to use your excel help option on your own computer.)
- Answer the Questions to Ponder (#’s 1-6 only for now) for LAD 5.3 - Please type out your answers. Be brief but thorough.
- You may now view the class data for LAD 5.1 - Density of Liquids (posted on ch 5 document page) Go there and look at it so you can go back and answer Question to Ponder #2 for LAD 5.1
