Dimensional Analysis: Zombie Survival
A new twist on dimensional analysis. This activity is for after you have taught dimensional analysis. Students need to apply the skills they learned to see if they can escape in time to avoid the incoming zombies. You can have the students compete individually or in groups and whichever individual or group gets the six problems correctly answered first is the winner.There is a worksheet for the students, a Zombie Survival Fact sheet with some conversions. The students will need to use the inform

Quantum Numbers spdf
I HATED teaching quantum numbers, orbitals, (electron configuration was okay..), but one day I sat down and decided I was going to master this section of chemistry. I wanted a chart that would be simple, straight forward, and eliminate the confusion with figuring out the principle quantum numbers and spin. This is it.I did the first one for the students in an effort to help you explain the process of finding the quantum numbers. I use this worksheet as a classroom activity. First, explain what
