Determine the molecular and structural formula for acetyl salicylic acid. Based on the molecular formula, determine the empirical formula, the mass in grams of a specific number of moles and the molar mass. Determine the molar mass based on a 1.0 g.sample and an abundance percentage.
Define homogenous and heterogenous mixtures. Differentiate between them by examining the properties of both types. List many examples of both types. Introduce terms like miscible, immiscible, soluble and insoluble. Derive a list of common solvent and solutes which will form homogenous and heterogenous mixtures. Introduce the term solution.
Unit 1- short fiction /characer,point of view/setting
Lesson Outline
We worked on how to write a characterization essay using the AP criteria. I reviewed on the board the function of characterization focusing on the need to explore motives, bias, and cultural representation. We then studied two chapters in the novel,Silas Marner. I pointed out text that revealed character and character change and provided instruction how to compose a topic sentence addressing character and how to incorporate the relevant textual material. We further worked on drawing inferences about character from the text. Last, I referenced how one function of characterization is to illustrate character development or transformation. Joshua will continue working on preparing two characterization paragraphs, and a short essay discussing there function of setting in two short stories he has read thus far for class.
Unit 1- short fiction /characer,point of view/setting
Lesson Outline
I continued instruction on the AP curriculum's focus on identifying the function of plot, character, setting and point of view by providing details on what the AP exam is seeking when it asks for the functions of certain literary elements. For example, we discussed how a parallel plot structure in the novel ,Silas Marner, elucidates class conflict. We then addressed how tone creates an author's perspective or world view. We read through a number of pages of Silas Marner and I pointed out how diction creates the author's perspective toward the society and people the novel portrays.
We will use the squeeze theorem for limits to study limits of trigonometric functions. We will use this their to prove that the limit as x approaches 0 of sin(x)/x is equal to one. This will enable us to find other limits of trigonometric functions. We will follow this with examples of other uses of the squeeze theorem.
Review how force vectors require both magnitude and direction. Differentiate scalar quantities from vector4 quantities. Discuss net force. Examine and define support forces as an upward force which balance the weight. Define weight as the gravitational force determined by 9.8l kg m/sec squared.
Explain support force
Outline and discuss the procedural steps used to determine the atomic weight of an element based on the mass and relative amount as found by the mass spectrometer. Work through each step in the process to finally arrive at the listed answer. introduce topic 1.3, determination of the empirical formula of a compound based upon the determination of moles of each element present in the compound. The information required depends on the spectral % found in each atom, conversion to grams and then to moles.Mathematically determine the mole ratios, convert to whole numbers and arrive at the empirical formula.
I placed on the board the literary elements that are the focus of the course- character, setting, plot, point of view- as well as a long list of the literary elements that reveal the function of each element and also contribute to meaning . I explained that the AP course focuses not on simply identifying the elements but more critically on explaining the function of each element. For example, character serves to reveal motives, personal history, and psychological condition. Likewise, setting is more than time and place. It represents a culture and shapes character. With this background ,I explained how to respond to the homework questions on character and setting which are based on the summer reading of Silas Marner.
We studied one-sided limits as related to piece-wise defined functions and functions with restricted domains. We also related limits to asymptotes. We used limits to identify discontinuities of functions and we reviewed the concept of continuous functions. The session ended with the Intermediate Value Theorem and some examples. Practice problems were given throughout the lesson.

Lesson Comments
Some time was lost due to the internet being down, but we did complete all that I had planned to do today. Josh has a very good understanding of limits and continuity.
