Final exam

[Malik Oda 1F]

Just to make sure, the final is going to cover all topics we learned this quarter including high school review?

[Julianna Laurentano 4G]

Yes, the final will be on all material covered from weeks 1-10!

[105311039]

yes . Everything from week 1-10.

[Kendra Barreras 3E]

Yea! Basically everything that we have learned in lecture is fair game for the final.

[Vivianvelazquez_1J]

Yes the final can include anything from the first day of lecture up until the last day of lecture. If you don’t know what exact concepts you need to know from each section the outlines always have the concepts that he expects you to know.

Does anyone know approximately how many questions the final exam will be?

Does anyone know approximately how many questions the final exam will be?

all I know is that it will be 3 hours, so one hour longer than the midterm

Test tip from one of the UAs: the number of minutes given for the exam=the number of points on the exam so pace yourself as best you can!!

[Cooper Baddley 1F]

The questions will most likely look like the ones we had on the midterms and the two quizzes so it would be beneficial to look back over those.

[Maya Pakulski 1D]

Does anyone know approximately how many questions the final exam will be?

On the page about final locations and review sessions it says there will be 8 questions on the final.

Just a prediction given how our tests have been laid out:

The test is likely to be heavy on the acids and bases questions and lewis structures (drawing dot structures and doing VSEPR). If there are 8 problems, it's probably gonna be

1 HS review question, but made complicated (like empirical/molecular formula derivation that requires multistep stoichiometry)
2 quantum problems
1 multi-part question on electron configurations/orbitals
1 coordination compound problem
1-2 VSEPR/molecular shape problem (probably asking about bond types/hybridization as well)
1-2 acid and base questions (pH, drawing reactions, indicating what is stronger/weaker, etc.)

[Madeline Phan 1E]

How much of the acid-base section is going to be on the final? I'm not sure what to focus on.

[Celena Kim 2I]

How much of the acid-base section is going to be on the final? I'm not sure what to focus on.

Acids and bases is probably be one of the topics I would focus on more since we haven't been tested on that yet.

[205192823]

Do we also need to go over the buffer solutions? I wasn't sure because I remember Professor Lavelle saying that it was a chem 14b concept...

[Annika Zhang 1F]

the final does not cover the pre midterm content as thoroughly, while it still includes those topic, it mostly focuses on post midterm content

[Annika Zhang 1F]

How much of the acid-base section is going to be on the final? I'm not sure what to focus on.

the number of questions depends on the amount of time we spent on the topic

[Annika Zhang 1F]

Does anyone know approximately how many questions the final exam will be?

It should be 1.5 times the lengthof the midterm

I think there are 8.
