Chemistry

The following assignment is intended for after reading review of course materials.  Homework questions may be True/False, Multiple Choice, Fill in the Blank or Matching.

These assessments are not timed and you are encouraged to use your textbook, notes, lecture materials and online references as needed to complete.

Objective:

• Student will recognize terminology and summarize concepts:
  • Describe chemical bonds and recognize covalent, ionic, van der waals and hydrogen interactions
  • Define isotopes and isomers
  • Label the important measurements included in the periodic table
  • Calculate atomic number from atomic mass
  • Match the subatomic particles to their properties
  • Describe polar and non-polar interactions
  • Identify the importance of valence electrons and quantity
  • Explain hydrophilic and hydrophobic interactions
  • Identify solutes, solvents, substrates and products
  • Describe cohesion and adhesion in the context of hydrogen bonding
  • Discuss acids, bases and buffers
  • Identify the strength of an acid or base from the pH scale
  • Match biological monomers with their polymer form
  • Label the protein folding hierarchy
  • Label the components of a fatty acid

 Questions come from a question bank, so no two may be alike, although all content is in preparation for the exam.  If you are unsatisfied with your score, you can retake the homework (for a total of 3 attempts) up until the due date (it will likely generate new questions over the same content) and the highest score will be posted to your grade book.
