AP Chemistry - First Day Thoughts

Yo AP,

I spent enough time telling you how good at chemistry I am today that I thought I should let you know how impressed I was with YOUR chemistry knowledge.  Mrs. Durivage (spelling?) did a fantastic job, but you deserve just as much credit.  I am abnormally excited about teaching this year.  I hope each day is as energetic and productive as today was.  Thank you for a fantastic first day.  Continue to surprise me with your brilliance.  Also, please free up any wasted space in your brain (like an old locker combination or words to a song you don't like anymore).  I plan on filling it.

AP Chemistry - Chapter 1&2 Exam Tuesday Aug. 31

Here are some practice problems that are actual exams I have given in prior years.  Some questions come from Chapter 3 (which should have been in your summer assignment).  However, I will hold off on adding Chapter 3 until the next exam.  Chapter 1&2 Practice Exam
