Lecture #8, Wednesday, April 14th

Today the last topic in the solubility unit was covered, which was Fractional/Selective Precipitation. After this topic is covered you should be able to perform all the problems in the solubility homework set and the first exam will mainly be made up of problems similar in nature to that homework set.

The next unit we will cover in class will deal with concepts discussed in the REEL labs. You will be given an incredible opportunity to use advanced instrumentation and investigate relationships requiring critical thinking skills. The only drawback is that this material is not covered in most general chemistry text books, so if you are a student who relies heavily on your text book it may cause some frustration. The REEL lab handouts are designed to contain the material you would typically read from a text (this is one of the reasons the labs are so long).

For Friday's class please try to read through REEL Lab 1, which is titled Diffraction and Crystal Lattices and we will pick up on that material on Friday.

Song Played Before Class:
Kanye West - Amazing ft. Young Jeezy
There's your Kayne Premal :)And if anyone else has requests let me know as I walk through lab.
