All topics related to liquids and solids.

Come see Astoria Stories, a documentary created in Long Island City H.S.  It will take place on Friday at 3PM, immediately following Open School Afternoon in room 275. 

You may be surprised to learn what other students are going through, or maybe you will end up feeling that you are not alone in the experiences.

Know everything related to Gas Laws!

Questions 108, 110-113, 118 on pages 61-62.

Questions Boyle's Law and Charles' Law handouts.

What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us.

Open School Evening:   Thursday, October 25 - 6PM-8:30PM

Open School Afternoon:  Friday, October 26 - 1PM - 3PM

Heat problems handout.

Freezing and Boiling Point Graph (page 13 in packet)

Cooling Curve Worksheet

Procedure: Add unknown solid to the beaker to approximately the 150mL line, and place the thermometer in the beaker.

Wait 1 minute, take the temperature reading (°C), and record it in the data table along with the phase.

Place the beaker on the hot plate that has been set to an "8".

Record the temperature every minute until you have taken 3 temperature readings after boiling.  Stir gently with the thermometer.

Note:  Do Not remove the thermometer from the beaker when taking readings.

Create a line graph using the data collected.  Connect all your points.  

Know how to calculate calorimetry problems using all three heat formulas.

Complete questions 9-12 on Calorimetry Problems handout.

Questions 3-8 on the Calorimetry Problems handout.

You should have a minimum of 4 labs completed.
