School Science concepts taught by Erone
The Student and Tutor worked through practice problems covering electron configuration, molecular orbital theory, Lewis structures, and periodic trends. The Student practiced assigning formal charges and identifying stable conjugate base structures. Homework involved reviewing the concepts and completing additional practice questions in preparation for an exam.
Molecular Orbital (MO) Diagram Labeling
Potential and Kinetic Energy Changes During Relaxation
Electron Excitation and Relaxation
Identifying D Orbital Labels
Formal Charge Calculation and Application
Stability and Conjugated Pi Systems
Ion-Dipole Interactions
Periodic Trends and Ionization Energy
The session reviewed thermodynamics concepts, including enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs free energy, phase changes, and heats of solution. The Student practiced applying these concepts to problems and also covered alkene reactions, regioselectivity, and carbocation stability in organic chemistry. The Student will attempt more AP Chem problems and organic chemistry problems for the next session.
Endothermic vs. Exothermic Processes & Stability
Spontaneity and the Gibbs Free Energy Equation
Applying q=mCΔT in Calorimetry
Bond Energies and Enthalpy Change (ΔH)
Regioselectivity and Carbocation Stability
Heat of Solution and Intermolecular Forces
Enthalpy (H)
Entropy (S)
The session covered thermochemistry problems, including coffee cup calorimetry and bomb calorimetry. The Student practiced calculating heat transfer (Q), enthalpy changes (ΔH), and applying the concepts of endothermic and exothermic reactions to solve calorimetry problems. The session concluded with reviewing Hess's Law.
Enthalpy Change (ΔH)
Calorimetry & Heat Transfer
Bomb Calorimetry
Endothermic vs. Exothermic Reactions
Heat of Combustion
Balancing Combustion Equations
Dissociation Equations and Ions
The student and tutor reviewed molecular orbital diagrams and practiced drawing them for diatomic molecules like BN, including determining bond order and identifying HOMO and LUMO. The student will take a practice test and plans to ask further questions in a follow-up session this weekend.
Bond Order
Molecular Orbital (MO) Diagrams
Filling MO Diagrams
HOMO and LUMO
Sigma (σ) and Pi (π) Bond Identification
The Student reviewed a practice final exam in Chemistry, focusing on organic chemistry concepts such as functional groups, isomerism, stereochemistry, and spectroscopy. The Student worked through problems involving structural analysis, R/S configuration, and quantitative calculations. There was no specific homework assigned, but the Student was encouraged to review chair conformations for the upcoming test.
Reaction Stoichiometry with Mass Change
Energy Absorption and Wavelength
E/Z Isomerism
Ring Strain and Cycloalkanes
Hybridization and Bond Overlap
Diamagnetism and Unpaired Electrons
Structural Isomers and Newman Projections
The Student reviewed previously completed chemistry questions, focusing on significant figures, nomenclature, empirical formulas, and molecular formulas. The Tutor then assisted the student with VSEPR theory, Lewis structures, and stoichiometry problems, finding molecular shapes, polarity, and limiting reactants. The Student created a cheat sheet to bring to the test, which will include formulas for finding pH and electronic configurations.
Polarity and Molecular Symmetry
Electronic Configurations
Percent Yield
Stoichiometry and Limiting Reactants
VSEPR Theory and Molecular Geometry
Lewis Structures and the Octet Rule
Nomenclature: Swap and Drop Method
Significant Figures
