CHEMISTRY COMMUNITY

I would waiver on the safe side and ask your TA.

Marco Vivar 3G

I found it easier to join clubs when online. I am a part of matriculate, Be the match, and Cure. I found it easier to attend zoom meetings and these clubs don't require much time

Marco Vivar 3G

Its okay to doubt your plans. Just try your hardest and when in person classes return you can see if you still feel the same about not going to pre-med

Marco Vivar 3G

I like to handwrite on my tablet. I find it easier to add things I missed when reviewing

Marco Vivar 3G

Dorming next quarter without a doubt.

Marco Vivar 3G

It is possible but make sure you take breaks and rest your mind to make sure you actually get what you are studying

Marco Vivar 3G

I agree I think the best thing to do is review instead of learning new topics.

Marco Vivar 3G

No chem next quarter for me, not because I didn't want to but because the classes were filled. I plan on taking 14C summer though.

Marco Vivar 3G

Honestly I would study hard for the final and not retake the class. Just do better in 14C. Perhaps you may feel like your GPA will be affected a lot but in the long run it will not hinder it.

Marco Vivar 3G

The burnout is real. I feel like every quarter online school just gets harder while our circumstances at home do not change and we still struggle.

Marco Vivar 3G

My main plans for summer are to take summer classes such as 14C which got filled before my pass. I also am looking forward to being on campus and enjoying the dorm life.

Marco Vivar 3G

In and Out is the go to best place IMO

Marco Vivar 3G

Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld is a good scifi book

Marco Vivar 3G

Stay by post malone is my favorite song

Marco Vivar 3G

I would def go to UA sessions especially since they often times hold reviews

Marco Vivar 3G

I agree to study like if it was a midterm especially if you are doing well.

Marco Vivar 3G

My current favorite show is Attack on Titan!

Marco Vivar 3G

You can talk to your TA and set up an appointment!

Marco Vivar 3G

The trick is to work a lot during the weekends.

Marco Vivar 3G

Tacos! are the best for me

Marco Vivar 3G

Yay time to sleep all day

Marco Vivar 3G

Videos from youtube or ask someone who is taking the class the order of material

Marco Vivar 3G

A C- is from 200 points which is half the total points

Marco Vivar 3G

This is helpful to destress

Marco Vivar 3G

Honestly online school makes school so much harder to focus on. I am stressed about the upcoming midterm as welll

Marco Vivar 3G

Some questions come from textbook problems so these are very helpful

Marco Vivar 3G

If you complete your 5 points this week it should update

Marco Vivar 3G

It is now due at the end of week 5!

Marco Vivar 3G

I believe this is just to keep track for now. Your points will be reflected again next time it is updated. 50 posts by the end of the quarter

Marco Vivar 3G

The homework extension really helped me not stress so much this weekend. Thank you!

Marco Vivar 3G · Re: Midterm Scores They should be released today 2/3/21!

They should be released today 2/3/21!

Marco Vivar 3G

I will be sleeping the pain away the whole weekend

Marco Vivar 3G

Stay by Post Malone is elite and has become my favorite song

Marco Vivar 3G

I like to do all my work the weekdays so that during the weekend I can do nothing and just take a break for 2 days.

Marco Vivar 3G

WEIGHTLIFTING FAIRY FTW! It was great and my first kdrama

Marco Vivar 3G

I study About 12 hours a week including UA sessions, Discussion, Hw, and textbook problems

Marco Vivar 3G

Thank you for the invite

Marco Vivar 3G

I plan on playing video games with my friends and catching up on sleep

Marco Vivar 3G

The textbook problems are a sort of study guide. Perhaps some UAs will help and provide their own midterm practice

Marco Vivar 3G

I want to join a research lab and develop a solid career goal so that I know what to do in the future.

Marco Vivar 3G

There will probably be a little extra time before the test so that the TA can check our cameras and make sure our papers are blank.

Marco Vivar 3G

Chem community grades aren't updated often, a good way to track them is to see your number of posts

Marco Vivar 3G

All calculators should be allowed graphing/scientific

Marco Vivar 3G

It will be during lecture on Fridays

Marco Vivar 3G

All are helpful it depends on if you are looking for a step up or a workshop or just drop in

Marco Vivar 3G

I would post 5 times a week just to stay on track. Posting is also very helpful

Marco Vivar 3G

This comes from the syllabus

Marco Vivar 3G

My go to movie is Turbo. I find it interesting every time and in a way it motivates me

Marco Vivar 3G

During class time unlike last quarter where it was discussion based

Marco Vivar 3G

We get points for posting and responding!

Marco Vivar 3G

I have signed up for PLF sessions to help make sure I study during the week.

Marco Vivar 3G

There was def a time crunch

Marco Vivar 3G

Marco Vivar 3G · Re: What time is the final? 11:30 am

11:30 am

Marco Vivar 3G

yes its 50% of all points

Marco Vivar 3G

TA office hours are your best bet

Marco Vivar 3G

Mine did not load and I kept getting an an error but all seems to work well now

Marco Vivar 3G

UA sessions def helped and each UA helped in different ways

Marco Vivar 3G

Excited for the quarter to end and to enjoy the holiday season stress free.

Marco Vivar 3G

A habit that has changed is going to seek help at UA and PLF sessions. I also tend to watch youtube videos for explanations as well

Marco Vivar 3G

These are helpful. Thank you

Marco Vivar 3G

Happy Late Turkey Day

Marco Vivar 3G

Attending as many live sessions as I can and Talking to my TA about problems I missed on my miderms

No we do not since the questions are worth fewer points :(

Marco Vivar 3G

I try to keep a schedule of when to watch lectures, then from there I do practice problems from the textbook. Workshops also really help and so do videos on youtube!

Marco Vivar 3G

Yes you should

Marco Vivar 3G

Its bigger thus more space for LDF to affect the atom

Marco Vivar 3G

Yes they count and therefore, affect the angle of the geometric shape

Marco Vivar 3G

My favorite tv show to watch on Netflix is Avatar The Last Airbender. I know this show is popular but it has so much rewatchability!

Marco Vivar 3G

Believe in yourself!. The good thing about this midterm is that although there were more questions each was worth less.

Marco Vivar 3G

If we cannot get on the waitlist because the lecture is full is there still a way to enroll in Chem 14B?

Marco Vivar 3G

They will be on midterm 2 since our last midterm did not cover this material.

Marco Vivar 3G

It will consist of the last 8 on outline 2 and all of outline 3. It is also not cummualative

Marco Vivar 3G

LDF occurs in all molecules however it is the weakest of the bonds

Marco Vivar 3G

Sunday at 11:59.

Marco Vivar 3G

We are not expected to know how to write out the chemical formulas yet because we have not learned the. So for midterm 2 they will be given, however in the future we may need to know them.

Marco Vivar 3G

I don't believe it matters but make sure to have them all spinning the same way if they are unfilled for example all -1/2 or all 1/2

Marco Vivar 3G

You place each dot around until it is time to pair the dots. Think of it like spin where every shell has to have 1 then it starts to become paired

Marco Vivar 3G

I would use a visual aid to mark your period table and practice by trying to compare different elements.

Marco Vivar 3G

I good method could be to watch youtube videos on it. Perhaps khan academy too. I always find these explanations helpful

Marco Vivar 3G

In terms of questions that could be asked there could be some conceptual questions that make sure we understand the trends and exceptions

Marco Vivar 3G

I recommend using your phone and joining zoom with it. This can serve as your external camera if it shows a good overview of your work space.

Marco Vivar 3G

I believe there is partial credit for when the question asks for multiple answers. Getting one part right but the other wrong would result in partial credit

Marco Vivar 3G

I feel like a good way to remember things is to simply quiz yourself. Pick random elements and quiz yourself on ionization and atomic radius.

Marco Vivar 3G

I would say paying attention to lectures was big for me. During lectures its important to pay attention to the conceptual aspects of what we're doing and why.

Marco Vivar 3G

It should take 1 hour not open notes but we have the periodic table and sheets. It happens during TA section time. Multiple choice

Marco Vivar 3G

The webcam is so our TA can see us as we take the test. If you don't have a webcam you can use zoom on your phone to record you as you take the test.

Marco Vivar 3G

Use the equation sheet. The eq sheet has it listed as c=2.99792*10^8 m/s

Marco Vivar 3G

The best thing to do is attend step up sessions and do practice problems. Also understanding each topic conceptually will really help. If you are in AAP then plfs are great.

Marco Vivar 3G

Yes we should know these for the midterm since they are not given on the eq/constant sheet.

Marco Vivar 3G

Yes so far C is always light which is a constant at 3*10^8 power. Unless they tell us otherwise

Marco Vivar 3G

Step-up sessions are very helpful because the instructor could provide questions similar to what would be asked on the test. Its also a time where anyone can ask a question you didn't even know you had.

Marco Vivar 3G

If we forget about the weeks chemistry community participation should we email a TA? I missed my points but I still want to make them up. Also yes I believe responding to someone's general question counts as participation

Marco Vivar 3G

The most important thing to stay on top is to watch lecture at the timeframe is signed up for. This gives me a weekly structured schedule that I can follow. I also attend plf sessions as a sort of review and to further my understanding.

Marco Vivar 3G

Honestly I feel that doing more practice questions helps helps more than picking out select questions. Don't know what could be on the test so its better to practice in volume.

Marco Vivar 3G

I would also print out the equation sheet to help on the midterm.

Marco Vivar 3G

0.005 has 1 sig fig because there is a non-zero number. 0.0000 would have 0 sig figs. 200 has 1 sig fig because of the 2. However, if it was 200. then it would have 3 sig figs because the two 0s come before a decimal point

Marco Vivar 3G

.80 or above is close enough to count as 1 but make sure to look at the rest of the numbers incase there is a case where .80 should be multiplied by 5

Marco Vivar 3G

I don't think he will ask for the exact definition of these but he will want us to understand the concept when it is applied to a chemical reaction of some sort.

Marco Vivar 3G

I believe that the periodic table we will be able to use on the test is given on the class website. None of it has to be memorized since we are able to use the table but I recommend knowing the atomic weight of the most popular elements like C,O,H,K so that it will be faster to calculate during the ...
