Writing Compound Names and Formulas Key

Below are the keys to the writing chemical formulas and compound names packet. On Monday, November 1st, you will have a diagnostic quiz to test your ability to write chemical formulas and names of chemical compounds. The diagnostic quiz will go in your homework grade. On Wednesday, November 3rd, you will have another quiz on the same material, but that grade will go in your assessment grade. Please make sure that you address any problems that you may have with the material by Wednesday.

Corrections: #18 on 'Naming Ionic Compounds' worksheet should be magnesium nitrite and #20 should be bicarbonate and not bisulfate.

Chapter 4 and 18 Test

The practice test for Chapters 4 and 18 is on the Events Calendar of the class webpage. It is a pdf file and at the end is a key. If you have any questions, I will be at school early tomorrow morning, so stop by and see me.

Not all of Chapter 4 and 18 will be tested on. In Chapter 4, we have not discussed compound formulas or the periodic table in depth, therefore do not concern yourself with sections 4.4 and 4.8 through 4.11. In Chapter 18, do not concern yourself with section 18.5. All other sections in both chapters are open for questioning. Concern yourself with what was presented in the note packages and work sheets given in class. Make sure that you review the part of the unit dedicated to radon.

Chapter 3 Test-Short Answer-Remedial Session

The remedial sessions for the short answer portion of the Chapter 3 test will be held at the following times. After school on Tuesday, October 5th, from 2:25 pm to 2:55 pm OR before school on Wednesday, October 6th, from 6:45 am to 7:15 am. You only need to attend one of the two sessions to earn back half of the points that you missed on the written portion of the exam.
