On Monday, September 23rd, all students will be sharing their average data collected during the Alka Seltzer Flip Your Lid Lab. Every student will be expected to turn in a typed copy of their lab report by the start of class on Friday Sept 27th. This is an individual report and will be counted towards their summative assessment grade (in the test category equivalent).
Below is a copy of the original lab procedure so that you can copy/paste the procedure instead of having to re-type everything along with a copy of the student sample lab report.

Do you need help in creating a graph? The site linked below is amazingly easy to use and allows to you save your graph as an image file which can be easily inserted into your word document. Note...you can't save your work and then come back to it to edit. Once you start making your graph you need to make sure that you have time to finish it.
Significant Figures Help--are you wanting just a little more practice with significant figures, or could a tutorial help you to solidify them in your brain? Click on the Khan Academy Link for several tutorials and practice questions. If you haven't already signed up for an account with Khan Academy I would highly recommend it as it will help you not only in science this year, but also in your math classes when you get stuck, or when you want to jump ahead and learn something new!
Check your understanding of Significant Figures Identification with this QUIA QUIZ |
A good question...
