Blog Reflection by Raymond Zhao
In, the past week we learned about equilibrium.This included learning about the special properties of reactions like how they are affected by temperature and pressure. Some important formulas were
Also, the unique properties of certain reactio were taught from experiemtns. Another important idea was the types of reactions: exo and endothermic. The properties of the reaction will determine how the reaction will shift when other factors are changed. The pogils and packets and the book all really helped my understanding of equilibrium. I really liked how the packets take me step by step and If I have a question I can ask my table group.
All these ideas about equilibrium can be connected by the different ideas I learned already like the different thermodynamic ideas. The earlier lectures and activities all greatly help me come to a understanding of the ideas this week because it established a good base for it. Thus, I rate the difficulty regarding last week about a 7/10. This is because it was challenging, but not such much that it can't be learned. I still wonder how to calculate K for reactions by changing other reaction's. They don’t make too much sense to me.Since that this my only question from last week, I'd say that my understanding is 9.5/10.
Likewise, my participation was a good 9.5/10 too. I asked question and actively learned. Because of my good participation, my understanding was good.
I feel fairly confident in memorization capabilities for learning trends. But, I still need to work on memorizing on all the visualizations because I sometimes forget. For example, I don’t really get the idea of K much. The concepts taught in last week have made me feel more confident about equilibrium. I now know the concepts a lot more clearly and I know how to find all the important properties.
Overall, the past week has been great. I learned a lot. Activities such as worksheets and white boarding greatly helped my understanding and development. I loved the time with groups to work together because it allowed interaction with each other. I feel like this helped me the most.
