ch 15 coverage

[robert zellmer]

In ch 15 the first 4 sections are closely related.  So much so the
book combines all four sections into one section of homework.
At the "Homework" link on my web page I've broken down the
homework problems based on the sections so you can still work
a section at a time.

That being said, I am not doing things in the direct order.
I did section 15.1.  Then I did about half of 15.2 (I did not get
to how to do an equil. constant in terms of pressure or how
to relate Kp and Kc).  I got to the last half of 15.3 of how the
form of the eqn effects the form and numerical value of K
and what happens when you add eqns.  I did not discuss the
magnitude of K.  The material isn't too difficult, probably
some of the easiest we'll see.  My suggestion is to go ahead
and read the sections in order and try the homework problems.
I'll get the rest of 15.2 and 15.3 which I didn't cover yet done
on Monday.  You should skim the rest of the chapter for Monday.

If you're behind try to get caught up.  Still work a section at a
time and don't try to catch up in one day.  Figure out how many
sections you're behind and spread that out over the next 2-3 days.
That will make it more manageable.

I will be sending some e-mails about graphing and working with
Excel later today and tomorrow.  I'm sure you're looking forward
to that.

Have a good weekend.
