- Chapter 1: Be able to use Scientific Notation with ease, and handle all unit conversions - including metric prefixes, English
to metric, and complex units (like speed and density).
- Chapter 1 # 55, 57, 59-61, 71, 91, 97, 99, 124, 127
- Chapter
2: You should be able to count subatomic particles (protons, neutrons, and electrons) for any atom, isotope, or ion.
You should be able to use a molar mass to convert between grams and moles, and use Avogadro's number.
- Chapter 2 # 57, 61, 81,
85, 105
- Chapter 3: You should be able to handle basic naming of ionic and covalent compounds. (I DON'T expect you to name acids, or
the older names of transition metal ions like "stannic" or "mercurous.") You should be fluent in polyatomic ions (Table 3.5,
pg. 91): know their names, formulas, and charges! Be able to use a molecular formula to convert from mass to moles of the entire
molecule (molar mass) or from moles of a molecule to moles of an atom or ion within the compound (Pg 113).
- Chapter 3 # 23, 37,
41, 43, 44, 47, 49, 59, 61
- Chapter 4: Be able to predict the products of an acid base neutralization reaction. Understand
what an electrolyte is and what it does when in an aqueous solution. You must understand Molarity, how to use it to convert between
moles and liters of solution. Although we won't do a ton of hard stoichiometry problems in Chem 2, you need a good understanding
of how reactions work on a mole to mole (or molecule to molecule) basis and how limiting reactants are determined.
- Chapter 4: # 6,
7, 49, 55, 57, 65, 69
- Chapter 6: Use Hess's Law to determine a heat of reaction, draw a reaction diagram showing both endothermic and
exothermic reactions, Understand the definition of a standard state (pg 275), be able to write the reaction associated
with a standard enthalpy of formation, and determine an enthalpy of reaction from standard enthalpies of formation.
- Chapter 6:# 25, 57, 59, 77, 81, 85
- Chapter 8: Write an electron configuration for all atoms and ions. Know which electrons on an
atom are considered valence and which are core electrons. Use valence electrons to determine and explain why atoms gain
or lose electrons.
- Chapter 8: # 30, 31, 45, 51, 52, 65
- Chapter 9: Be able to draw Lewis structures for binary covalent
compounds and including expanded octets and polyatomic ions. Be able to draw resonance structures, and understand what resonance
means to the strength of bonds and a molecule's stability. Understand bond polarity based on the electronegativities of the
atoms.
- Chapter 9: # 51, 55, 59, 60, 64, 73, 75
- Chapter 10: VSEPR Structures! Know Table 10.1 well; know electron geometries,
molecular geometries (shapes), and bond angles. Be able to reasonably draw the shapes in 3D (pg 436). Be able to determine
if a molecule is polar or nonpolar.
- Chapter 10: # 5, 7, 35, 37, 47-52, 89, 90
The point of this review is to make sure that you have the basic skills necessary to be successful in this course. While I personally
feel that a STRONG background in ALL of the skills taught in College Chemistry I is incredibly valuable in this course,
there are some skills that you must have in order to be successful in this course. The review quiz is NOT intended to be
a repeat of a comprehensive final from College Chemistry I, but is meant to make sure that you all start this course with the appropriate
background -especially when it comes to the math and problem solving skills.
Here is a practice quiz from several years
ago. Note that the points possible is 50 where your quiz will be graded out of 30, so this one is a little longer than
you should expect.
Use the following problems as a guide to help you review for the quiz:
