Testing

There is a one time reprieve for the PT test makeup. This will be posted today on Castle learning and students will have until Saturday at noon to complete. Same deal as last time: score an 85% or above and I will average it with your test score and change your grade. In order to benefit you must get a score of 85%, score below that and it will not change your grade. The test is called PT Makeup Revisited.



How to prepare for a test
Go through the notes and look at the terms that were used. For this unit these terms are:
Density
Standard temperature
Entropy
Endothermic & Exothermic
Conservation of Matter
Conservation of Energy
Kinetic & Potential energy
Formula unit & Empirical formulas
Balancing simple equations
Celsius & Kelvin
Phase
Boiling, Melting, Condensation, crystallization, Sublimation, deposition, fusing
Heating curve
Vapor pressure
Table H
Dynamic equilibrium
Specific heat
Allotropes

Make sure you understand these terms and you should do well.  The Test will be next Tuesday and will be 40 questions in the same format as the Regents test. Do well on the test and you will not have to do the makeup.
