Chem 11 – Oct 14: Heating Curves & History of the Atom

Heating curves for pure substances: Remember temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of a substance and heat is the total amount of kinetic and potential energy in a substance.

Assignment: Workbook up to 2.7 (notes and questions)

Here is the video we watched in class to make notes on the history of the atom:

There will be a quiz on Friday Oct 17 covering states of matter, heating curves and the atom.
