I'll post information about the material each exam will cover here. If you would like to see what this page will look like check out the page from Fall 2001.

Exam II

Chapter 12

Sections 3, 4, 5, 6 (to page 459)

  • types of intermolecular attractive forces;

    ion-dipole, dispersion, dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding forces;

  • polarizability;

  • surface tension, capillarity,viscosity, and the unique properties of water;

  • types of solid;

    molecular/atomic, ionic, metallic and extended covalent;

  • calculations using unit cell type, atomic radius, edge length, and density;

  • cubic structures and cubic unit cells;

    simple cubic, body-centered cubic and face-centered cubic unit cells;

  • do not do/use Sample Problem 12.4 on page 452. This problem takes a different approach to using density, atomic radius and cell type to do calculations. That is not the approach we used in class. Checkout PS4 problems to see the approach we have discussed.
