Midterm Self Assessment and Goal-Setting science

Unit 1:

  • My strength from unit 1 was writing bhor and lewis diagrams. This was my strength because i could easily understand the concept of how many electron were supposed to go on each orbital. i could easily identify when to draw and ion instead of an atom. this helped me a lot in this unit since the next unit included a lot of lewis diagrams.
  • my goal: One thing i was not great at from this unit was writing out ionic formulas. i think this was my weakness because i got confused by all the rules and sometimes forgot some and then got the question wrong. I plan to get better at this by doing more practice questions at home since we hav to use them for the unit that we are doing right now. Another way i can get better is look through my notes whenever i get a question wrong.

Unit 2:

  • my strength: my strength was naming and drawing the vesper shape of a molecule. I was mostly good at this for simple molecules with only one base atom but I could also understand when there was more than one. I think i was good at this because i studied a lot to remember all of the different types of vesper shapes so my hard work payed off for this area of this unit.
  • my goal: my goal is to better understand bond diapoles and when a molecule is polarcovalent or non-polar covalent. I struggled a lot with this part because i had a hard time memorising the rules for each type of vesper shape. One way i can get better at this is look back on my notes and go through them thouroughly. After this i can practice with more questions and if i still dont understand i can go ask for additional help.

Unit 3:

  • my strength: my strength is finding the unitary rates of molar mass and finding how many moles are in some molecules. I can thouroughly show my work on this because i understand it. While we are still doing this unit, I can usually find the right answer and feel confident in most mole problems (relatevaly simple ones).
  • My goal: One thing i can work on is making sure i have the right amount of sig figs in my final answer and making sure i say the unit in my final answer because sometimes i forget to do this and it does not end up being right. One way i can get better at this is to (after i have finished all questions) double check my answer on all question and make sure i have put the right amount of sig figs and unitary rates. I can also check the sig figs at the beginning of the question so i don’t get confused later.
