REVIEW TOPICS FOR EXAM 2 (CHAPTERS 3 AND 4) BEST METHOD FOR STUDYING As you read Chapter 3.1, go to Chapter 3.1 in this Review Topics Packet along with your class notes. Repeat the process with the remaining chapters and sections. When you are through with reading/reviewing, go to the Review Problems Packet. DEFINITIONS/VOCABULARY Like Exam 1, definitions are your responsibility. I can supply the definition, and you will have to supply the vocabulary word. I can give you the vocabulary word, and you will have to supply the definition. Sometimes I will give you examples of a vocabulary word that you need to identify. Sometimes I will ask you to supply examples for a vocabulary word I can ask matching, true/false, and fill-in-the-blank type questions. Chapter 3 You are responsible for all words in bold throughout Chapter 3. The Key Terms exercise on pp. 92 93 will be helpful in studying the Chapter 3 vocabulary. Chapter 4 You will be responsible for all words in bold throughout Chapter 3, except for... Chapter 4, Section 11: Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle The Key Terms exercise on p. 126 will be helpful in studying the Chapter 4 vocabulary. Special Terms (in your notes, but not in your textbook): A column on the periodic table is known as a group or family A row on the periodic table is known as a period Intensive Properties and Extensive Properties : You are responsible for recognizing/providing examples for these terms, as well as the definitions. Miscible/miscibility vs. immiscible/immiscibility (from lab): you are responsible for recognizing an example for this term, as well as the definition.

I will only teach this section in relation to where are these s, p, d, f orbitals coming from? I will not test you on this information...not even as extra credit questions. Although the orbital shapes are helpful, I will not require you to know the shapes of the orbitals for Exam 2. NO SHAPES OR STRUCTURES (LAB EXPERIMENT 11) There will be no shapes or models or structures for Exam 2. This information will be on Exam 3. Page 7 of 7
