Absent students-
- acquire the notes of the day
- to make up lab, write a one-page paper on the importance of using standards in science. (Include how standards are used and what are the different standards used in science).
- Watch chemistry video hyperlink above and answer these questions
H.W> Watch YouTube Lab safety video and follow the above mentioned requirements.
- notes on the metric system; how to do metric conversions; writing numbers in scientific notation; multiplying and dividing numbers in scientific notation using calculator. For reinforcement look at pages 126-132 in your textbook and do some of the problems on page 164 (1-20).
