,Chemistry Final Exam Review
,Topic List
, List of Topics for Final Exam (Honors)
Remember that we have done two types of learning this semester:
#1 Concepts: Your notes and unit tests are your best tool for studying concepts. The book is a good place to
start, but remember that we often go a step further than the book, so relying on what we actually discussed
in class is crucial! Get together with a friend, go through the concepts, and explain them to each other. Check
your notes and unit test questions to make sure you hit all of the crucial points.
#2 Calculations: The best way to study these types of problems is practice, practice, practice! All homework
handouts and answer keys are posted on Canvas. Even if you have already done these problems in the past,
doing them again before the final exam will help you remember the technique and practice again.
