Today we talked about a couple more periodic trends and how they relate to the electron configuration of the atoms and/or ions involved. We talked about magnetism, ionization energy and electron affinity. We also looked at a problem set in class that should show us the trend in ionic size/radius for either cations or anions. It didn't seem like most people made it through the whole problem set in class, so be sure to take a look at it over the weekend and we'll wrap that one up in a couple minutes at the beginning of class on Monday.
There's a new Mastering Chemistry posted, due Tuesday. Don't forget the current MC assignment, due tonight.
Don't forget the "Diggin for a Cure" volleyball game tonight, the team also plays tomorrow afternoon. If any other teams, groups, or organizations would like me to mention their events on the class blog, let me know. I'm always interested to know what people in class are involved in.
