<p>Lab questions are usually disguised as part concept, part lab question, so that if you understand the concept, you may get some points? I am not 100% sure.</p>
<p>Come ooon people, I seem to be the only person in this thread D:</p>
<p>Really, if you know
a) the concepts
b) what each piece of equipment can measure
you can probably figure out almost everything else. My teacher said they will occasionally ask a really annoying question like “How do you prepare a buret for titration?” which you just have to know.</p>
<p>Wait so… if I remember A = abc, without actually knowing all that crap about spectroscopy (aside from fact it relates to what wavelength is absorbed) ill be fine?</p>
<p>given, of course, that I know what each variable in beer’s law means haha.</p>
<p>Serafina, calorimetry is like specific heat and stuff.
more common, it is bomb calorimeters… and the other kind. i forget haha. </p>
<p>basically, know that qmt of solid= qmt of water (heat x mass x specific heat)</p>
<p>It’s not like they will ask you what color the machine is, lol. But you might have to make an insight to understand the procedure that will be obvious if you already know the lab.</p>
<p>@Seraphina’s desperate attempt to start a review:</p>
<p>current that passed through solution = </p>
<p>mole e- = amperes x seconds / F</p>
<p>in this problem, we’re given amperes and seconds (convert from minutes) / F</p>
<p>then you’ll get your answer =)</p>
<p>Wewt, awesome! We should do what the AP Bio kids are doing, everyone that answers a question should ask a question after. </p>
<p>"But you might have to make an insight to understand the procedure that will be obvious if you already know the lab. "</p>
<p>What if labs were nonexistently covered? Are we screwed then? =/ Man, it’s difficult to not feel worried…</p>
<p>I’m going to sleep now… Ill look forward to speaking to everyone once they are serious tomorrow night =)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>What exactly is the answer of this?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Lol yeah. I’ll start posting in the thread I started =P</p>
<p>Here is page from sparknotes has some lab stuff on it, it’s for the SAT subject test, but might be helpful: [SparkNotes:</a> SAT Chemistry: Laboratory](<a href=“http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/sat2/chemistry/chapter11.rhtml]SparkNotes:”>http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/sat2/chemistry/chapter11.rhtml)</p>
<p>
First, you rinse the buret with the titrant. Here is the part that nobody would guess: you have to open the buret to let some titrant through the nozzle thingy to clean that part as well.</p>
<p>I doubt they would have this exact same question again, and it is probably only worth a point or two. The following questions certainly wouldn’t depend on it.</p>
<p>For serious. RedCatharsis, and anyone else, what do you guys think will be the topic breakdown for the FRQ?</p>
<p>2008: Kp/Kc, Kinetics, Electrochem
2007: Ka, Thermo, Bonding energy, Electrochem
2006: Ksp, Thermo, Stoichemetry</p>
<p>^ Titration, Thermo, Stoichiometry?</p>
<p>Not sure on the last two, pretty sure on the first one.</p>
<p>I’m guessing Kb, Thermo and Stoich</p>
<p>reccomendation on Princeton Review 2008-2009? Good gauge of the AP test? too easy? just throwing that out there, it wasn’t answered earlier in the discussion.</p>
<p>Well, I’m hoping for a Titration problem for the equilibrium one. Also, please please please let there be no hybridization/orbital type questions. Maybe I’ll be lucky and get entropy or reaction mechanisms. But I’m not lucky… :(</p>
<p>God please be entropy.
For person who is afraid of hybridization just memorize the table seriously. If nothing shows up on frq it’ll still help you dring mc. I have seen at least 6 questions related to hybridization on exams I’ve taken.</p>
<p>nonono, there needs to be organic on the test… PLEASE let an FRQ be on organic reactions !!!</p>
<p>I’m guessing the AP FRQ has a cycle?</p>
<p>2008: Kp/Kc, Kinetics, Electrochem
2007: Ka, Thermo, Bonding energy, Electrochem
2006: Ksp, Thermo, Stoichemetry </p>
<p>Since there was no thermo last year, can we expect it this year? And Kb will probably be the equilibrium problem considering the fact that it hasn’t showed up since 2005 or earlier. </p>
<p>I really want</p>
<p>Equilibrium (whatever topic for this, it’s gonna be hard anyway haha), Thermo, Stoichiometry, Reactions, Periodic Trends, Bonding</p>
<p>Did you guys all miss school today?</p>
<p>i’m at school.</p>
