Names & Symbols, ka-ching!

Finish the SigFig worksheet from class.  For extra tutorial help, here:  http://socratic.org/chemistry/measurement-in-chemistry/significant-figures
If you understand it from the worksheet instructions, don't bother with the videos, they are probably too long, or just skip around.  It's pretty good practice.:

Read your textbook, 3.1-3.3 (only about 6 pages)

  1. I didn't know "Tin Can" was an element! The version Daniel did was better.

  2. Let's be honest here. Daniel Radcliffe is awesome, his song was hilarious.
    But the other version actually sorta teaches you about the elements, so educationally its better.
    (There's a vague vote for you.)

  5. I vote for Mr. Potter. If he had known that song in the movie, Snape wouldn't have so much to be grumpy about.
