Ignite curiosity with a biology tutor who enhances understanding through engaging visuals.

The Student and Tutor discussed fuels, combustion, energy consumption, and the environmental impact of fossil fuels. They also explored alternative renewable fuels like biogas, bioethanol, and biodiesel, including the concept of carbon neutrality. The session concluded with plans to reschedule the next class to a weekday and a discussion of the Student's recent chemistry results.

The session covered intermolecular forces, polarity, and electronegativity, with the Student practicing identifying polar and non-polar molecules. The relationship between molecular structure, intermolecular forces, and physical properties was examined. The Student was assigned review questions from chapters six and seven in preparation for the next session.

The Student and Tutor reviewed covalent bonding, molecular shapes, and the valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory. They discussed the properties of non-metallic elements and the differences between intermolecular and intramolecular bonds. The Student practiced identifying molecular shapes based on the number of lone pairs and bonding pairs of electrons, and the Tutor assigned further practice problems for the next session.

The Tutor and Student discussed properties and applications of metals, alloys, and nanomaterials, including gold, silver, and copper. The Student learned about heat treatments, coatings, and the use of nanoparticles in targeted therapies and antibacterial applications. For homework, the Student was assigned to review Chapter 3, focusing on properties of metals, metallic bonding, and extraction methods.

Sunitha and a student residing in High Point reviewed the properties and reactivity of metals, including transition metals, metallic bonding, and the extraction of iron from its ore. The student practiced identifying the reactivity of different metals based on observations and understanding the processes in a blast furnace. They discussed scheduling the next lesson and will continue with the remaining material then.

During their recent chemistry lesson, Sunitha and Ifadha thoroughly reviewed periodic table trends, covering electronic configuration, core charge, electronegativity, atomic radius, ionization energy, metallic character, and reactivity. They also explored the properties and uses of various metals. Their lesson concluded with a plan to continue with Chapter 3 on Saturday, focusing on the chemical properties of metals.
