announcements & Experiment No.6

Guys if you've seen an XpressMusic or whatever it's called (NOT touchscreen) please contact Jethro. :(
Play is on March 8, so :| :(( :o and it's being held in the 4th Floor Audi. Trying to book it...
Experiments 6-10 can be found in the 2nd Floor B-lob. P11 lang.

Experiment No. 6
Classifying Mixtures


Introduction
In this experiment you will compare some properties of starch solutions with those of a sodium chloride solution. You will also use the Tyndall effect to identify the different kinds of mixtures.

Objective
To classify the kinds of mixtures using starch mixtures and sodium chloride solution.


EquipmentMaterials/Chemicals
1 filter paper
2 teaspoons, plastic
1 cent-o-gram balance
4 100mL beakers
1 funnel
1 alcohol burner
1 tripod
1 wire gauze
1 50mL graduated cylinder
1 stirring rod
1 penlight, 3 volts
NaCl
Starch
water


Procedure
  1. Add about 1/4 tsp. (approx 3g) of common table salt to 30mL water in a 100mL beaker. Stir until the salt is completely dissolved. Filter and set aside.
  2. Add 1/4 tsp of starch to 30mL of water in another 100mL beaker. Stir thoroughly and place beside salt and water mixture.
  3. Add about one teaspoon (approx 5g) o starch to 50mL water in another 100mL beaker. Stir thoroughly, heat mixture with constant stirring until boils and becomes clear. Get 10 mL of this mixture and put it in another 100mL beaker. Add enough water to make volume 30mL. Place beside other beakers. Compare the contents of 3 containers.
  4. Focus the penlight on each of 3 beakers. Look at beam of light from the top of the beaker (at right angles to the beam of light). Note difference.

Data Results

experiment #5

Exp. 5: Physical and Chemical Changes
Objectives
To distinguish:
⁃ physical properties from chemical
⁃ physical from chemical changes
⁃ mixtures from compounds
⁃ metals from nonmetals

To state the operational definition of:
⁃ a compound
⁃ an element
⁃ a mixture

Procedure
1.) Combine the copper turnings and sulfur powder and examine the mixture with a hand lens. Record your observations in Table 5.1. Transfer the mixture to a 10mL test tube. Heat the mixture complete. Record your observations.
2.) Write down properties of 5cm strip of magnesium ribbon. Hold one end of the strip over a burner flame using crucible tongs until the ribbon ignites. (CAUTION: Do not look directly at the burning magnesium. Keep the burning magnesium at arm's length.) Record your observations. Let the combustion product fall on a watch glass. Compare with original magnesium ribbon. Transfer combustion product to small beaker then add 3mL distilled water. Stir solution and add red and blue litmus. Record your observations.
3.) Get copper wire about 14cm long, 2mm diameter and form a loop at one end (see pic). This will serve as a deflagrating spoon. Spoon some sulfur powder, enough to fill the loop. Hold this over the burner flame. Observe the burning sulfur. Dissolve combustion product by holding the end of the loop inside a vial with 3mL water. Add red and blue litmus to resulting solution. Record your observations.
4.) Place 2 or 3 iodine crystals in a 150mL beaker and place this on a wire gauze and iron ring. Over the beaker, place an evaporating dish with a small amount of water. With small flame, heat crystals and observe what happens. Examine the bottom of evaporating dish after it cools. Record your observations.
5.) Put a few copper nitrate crystals into a clean, dry 10mL test tube. Hold the test tube w/ holder and heat gently in a burner flame. (CAUTION: Never point the mouth of the test tube at anyone while heating the test tube.) Watch the test tube for changes, periodically removing the tube from the flame to note any odor that evolves. When the heating is complete, observe the reaction products then Record your observations
6.) Put the sodium chloride and sand mixture on a piece of clean paper. Examine the mixture w/ magnifying glass. Record your observations. Transfer the mixture to a clean 150mL beaker. Add 30mL of distilled water and stir the mixture with a glass rod.
Filter the mixture: fold a piece of filter paper in half and fold again so that the edges do not meet but form an angle of abt 5-10 degrees
Place evaporating dish below the funnel, and pour the salt/sand/water mixture into the funnel. The liquid that passes through the filter paper is called the filtrate. Heat the dish gently until filtrate has evaporated completely. Allow dish to cool. Examine dry residue in evaporating dish and wet residue on filter paper. Record your observations. Throw evaporating dish together w/ the sand.
Submit dry residue to teacher.

Chemical SystemObservationAnalysis
Copper turnings + sulfur powder examined w/ hand lens. heated together.
magnesium ribbon: burned in air, combustion product, dissolved in water, solution tested with litmus paper.
Sulfur power: burned in air, combustion product, dissolved in water, solution tested with red and blue litmus paper
Iodine crystals: heated, vapor cooled
copper nitrate heated
sodium chloride and sand mixture: examined w/ hand lens. mixed with water. filtered. filtreate allowed to evaporate.


QUESTIONS
1) For each change observed from steps 1-6 indicate whether the change was physical or chemical. Explain.

Chemical System     Kind of change                      reason
  1. mixing copper and sulfur (heated)

  2. magnesium heated in air

  3. sulfur heated in air

  4. iodine crystals (heated)

  5. copper nitrate (heated)

  6. mixing salt, sand and water


2) What's the diff. between chem and physical problems?
3) Using the results of your exp., state the diff. between a chemical change and a physical change.
4) How can you differentiate compounds from mixtures? A metal from nonmetal.
5)Give the operational definition of a compound, an element, and a mixture.

Happy Valentines' Day~

Field trip
- I may not have given you the handout, I'm sorry, I lost them in a gazebo x| Someone please be kind enough to scan one.

Socsci
- article reviews are back on Wednesday.

Play
- Comms, better start now so you won't have to cram during Perio.

IS
- We had two prelims and two final reports due last week, make sure you've passed.

Class Mag
- I've finished editing everything that's been passed to me, and here are some comments.
Javi - your review is too long. If we post it as is, it's going to be more than one-third of the magazine.
Dave - I loved yours, I swear. :3 But there's one flaw: Ma'am Abella doesn't teach SS to Sr. She does teach Cs and Na, though. I think the third is Li; I'll recheck with them. But still I loved yours :3
Gillian, Andrei - excellent. But Andrei, you swore a bit too much.
Olin, Marianne - Okay na. I'm not sure if even these have to have something to do with Garnet; but aside from that, it's okay.
Joaqui - Nice topic. And nice article. :D
If you aren't on here, I haven't received your article. Travel section, yes your USB is with me, I'll check latur.

Ma'am says we're going to talk more about the mag on Tuesday, 'cause a lot of you still haven't passed. Editors, please keep track of who has passed and when. You're going to grade them.

If you want a failing grade, fine, don't pass. It's your grade.

Thursday, February 11, 2010

Growwwr.

Only four editors have passed: Dave, Javi, Marianne, and Jethro.

The ones I have received are the ones written by:
Pat, Gillian, Andrei, Marianne, Olin, Jethro, DJ, Joaqui, Javi, and me.

That's TEN articles out of THIRTY. WHAAA, GARNET, KAWAWA NAMAN TAYO. Yung may mga technical problems, please PLEASE find a way to send it to meeee. I'll talk over deadlines with you tomorrow.

Credits to the editors who passed early--Dave, Javi, Marianne, and Jethro. But Dave, you didn't include your own article :| You just passed Pat's.

Special credits to Jethro, your email was very formal. I love it. :> IT HA, IT. :))

Editors you also have to make an article!! T^T
Nako Garnet. :| :(

FAIR POST!

Okay, so about the fair...
Sabi ng FairCom na hindi pwede ang 2+ hours na shift. So if you guys have an extra long shift... You can ask whoever is in charge about it.
I left before they set up the booth and all, pero I remember (just in case the booth isn't set up yet):
- try bringing yung mga table. pwede raw manghiram sa ASTB pero dapat may permission and collateral.
- kailangan natin ng cashbox and a notebook or something like that to keep track.
- we're working right beside the jail booth kasi we can't really catch anyone daw :)) kind of true
- Jade has make-up classes so I think Garnet will pull the majority of the shifts tomorrow. Not sure yet.
- IDs provided

By the way, the tickets are with Gene. He'll distribute them tomorrow

And try stopping by the FebEx booth and getting letters made for yo speshul somewan. :)) Project Cyrano: Basically they write love letters (for a price XD) and FebEx will deliver it. You need to give the full name of the recipient XD pwede pisay student, pwede pisay teacher.

^^ Try not getting caught.
/marianne

ps: paul
if you don't send the review, then i will seriously give you a failing grade. may deduction ka na kasi late yung submission mo.
pia: ikaw din, nasaan yung review mo?
javi: SORRY! :( But you passed it, right?
to the guys who are watching percy jackson with me:
I WAS ALLOWED TO GO! \m/
Showing is at 6:55PM and it will end mga 9PM. Cinema 1, Trinoma. Tickets are P170 each

feb 10/2010

"To all first years, second years and third years -- You must set up your booths by tomorrow, 4:10 PM (Oval Area) when the tents are set up. Don't forget to decorate your areas, and put your price lists and other necessary stuff. Bring your materials and valuable equipment on Friday na lang para 'di mawala. We will tell you which tent is assigned to you tomorrow. If you have questions, text 09266192252. Thank you. Also, you may still join Singles. Just approach the fair pair booth. PLEASE PASS. "

GUYS! It seems we have a problem with rehearsal. Ma'am Ghie's taking an hour from our two hour practice. But we can still practice in the 4th Floor Audi.
I asked Ma'am if it was possible to hold the make-up classes in the 4th Floor instead of the ASTB AVR kasi ang layo ng 4th Floor SHB sa 2nd Floor ASTB. Will confirm tomorrow.
Actually, the reservation for the audi isn't confirmed XD Will get confirmation tomorrow.

Good luck on the NATs and the fair!
THE FAIR THE FAIR THE FAIR THE FAIR!

By the way, you can sign people up without them knowing for Singles XD 'Cause you don't need a signature, just name and section. :)) Have fun

To Mah (Marianne) CompSci group

Mika, Pat, Monchai, Bianca, Issa:
Since we're doing the project on Garnet 2013, I think we should do the individual web pages first. I can only think of 3 jobs so others think of what they should do their web pages on.
1.) Class List-- MINE! Yes I'm evil >:)
List of students and short description (not 'he has black hair and brown eyes, blah blah'! Like 'he likes to play cards...')
2.) Teacher List -- PAT
List of teachers and short description.
3.) Events List -- ISSA
List of events (example: SocSci Fieldtrip, kiteflying, stargazing, etc)

All web pages should use even the littlest bit of CSS and have pictures! But not too many. And please keep the file size in mind, so that's it. Be creative. -_-

Or if you want don't follow this list. But imma make a class list so ;p

HW for Monday

Okay, I'm not sure if it's complete, pero at least there's a list, no?

- SocSci
The list of words. No excuses, pass it tomorrow. Pia posted it on this blog (look for it in the February posts) so if you lost your photocopy you won't have trouble.
Please don't mooch off from anyone anymore.

- IS
Bring labgown plus study the hand-outs Bianca gave.

Past that, I'm not sure... Oh yeah!
BRING A BLUE FILLER (kung wala) or else patay kayo sa Math XD

PLEASE START WRITING YOUR ARTICLES!
And by the way, Reviews, I want two or so small pictures (must not exceed 400px in height and 300px in width) to accompany your articles. Attach it separately from the word document.
The picture must be the cover/official poster/official logo. And the second picture should be like a screenshot. If it's a book, wag na... Or maybe an illustration. If it's a music album, then maybe a band picture.

rantinggg. for the magazine, of course.

well, for the rants, oh wait, the "student problems".
At least 1 page.
Just submit a regular sized article. or something like that. =))

If you're going to make a student problem article, it should surpass my level of my debate against it. Otherwise... make a new one.

Just kidding. But yeah, I will try to contradict it in any way possible. Somehow.

Make sure your grammar's good, your argument about the problem makes sense, no senseless ranting or complaining. I want reasons.

So... yeahhh. That's it.

Plus points if I agree to your topic. =))))))) Joke. Wait, maybe yeah.

Basically...

Logic and Reason + Rants + Your personality.

Btw. It CAN sound like a complaint. If you can make it sound like complaining AND have logic, then that's GREATTT. Well, that's all for now. Thanksss.

Note: YOU CAN EVEN RANT ABOUT RANTING OR RANT ABOUT THE MAGAZINE. Any student related problems will do. Just no complaining about low grades unless the teacher is evilazy.

by Monday 9PM

By the way, what are you guys reviewing? **please review The Graveyard Book, Paul**

-_-

Yeah. I better make this quick.

Here is the list of assignments. (Stephen, since you didn't sign up for anything, I'm assuming you go in the only remaining spot.) First one in each list is the editor.

News/Stories: Dave, Pat
Sports: Rham, Alessandro, Emman
Travel: Pardau, Bea
Entertainment: Gene, James, Gab, Jadee, Kirby, Jenine
Unusual experiences (I wish you luck, Jethro is your ed :P) : Jethro, Monchai, Joaqui, DJ
Hobbies: Alyssa, Stephen, Issa
Student problems: Javi, Leiko, Gillian, Andrei
Reviews: Marianne, Olin, Paul

Again, deadline for all articles are due on Tuesday, February 9. (Yes, the date I put is wrong, human mistake -_-) The article should have been edited by the editor at least once.

I repeat--all extra articles that you wish to submit should also follow the restrictions of the editor (deadlines, formatting, etc).

Everyone is required to submit at least one article. This includes the editors, bus man, art director (di naman problema kay Pia yan :-j), and me. :P

Comment below for questions, suggestions, and violent reactions.

Okay, our blog is flooded.

If I were standing right now, I would be falling.

This is a soft copy of what I will give y'all tomorrow. But this one has some difference, colored red.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS MAGAZINE

DO NOT LOSE THIS, KLFSHLALKF;L

Firstly, sign up for a slot in whatever category you want, as per Stephen’s suggestion. First come, first serve. Pick wisely. :O I'll be giving the sign-up sheets tomorrow.


News/stories – Dave

Somehow interesting but still informative. News features.


Sports – Rham

Well, duh.


Travel – Pardau

Intramuros trip. And you can throw in some of those Trinoma gimmicks. :P



Entertainment – Gene

Freedom-y. :D You may include the compilation of jokes I have in the Garnet multi.


Unusual experiences – Jethro

Pretty much the same as Entertainment, but it has to be uniquely Garnet. :D


Hobbies - Alyssa

Where we hang out during break, what do we do, what do many of us like and dislike… etc.


Student problems - Javi

I love this part. :)) Rant-all-you-want.


Letter to the editors – Mika

Don’t understand this one, but I assume no slots for this.


Books/Movie Reviews – Marianne

Obviously.


wisely


Write an article under your topic and pass it to your editors. Editors, you must edit and determine whether it should be remade completely or will be okay with grammar and spell check. All revisions must be with me by Tuesday, Feb. 10. This gives you ample time to write, edit, rewrite, and have one final edit.

I’ll give the final edits to Pia on Thursday, Feb. 12. And the rest will be discussed by Pia, Alyssa, and me.

NOTES

  • Follow what your editors say. (But Editors, don’t abuse.) If they give a format or give deadlines, follow.
  • Editors, be responsible. Make sure everyone submits on time and make sure you submit on time.
  • Keep a soft copy and a hard copy for every article you write. Layouting will be hard and will take long for Pia if she still has to type everything.
  • There is no specified length for the articles, but minimum should be roughly as long as THIS ENTRY > click! Sorry, okay, my head hurts too much to make another entry. The articles will be cropped and prolonged as the layout calls for.
  • If you want to pass extra articles for other portions, that's perfectly fine, just pass to the correct editor.
  • DO NOT FORGET TO PUT YOUR NAMES IN THE ARTICLES.


BEAR IN MIND. The articles in the magazine should reflect who Garnet is—like a many-faceted diamond (irony), it’s more beautiful if we show more sides. So, write the way you would talk (minus the swearwords and the side comments, maybe, such as this one). Make your personality, and Garnet’s, apparent in your writing—but please don’t sound so stupid.


Yay, go Garnet.

check the previous post first

So Pia has been asking for picture submissions...
And since I'm assistant editor for Reviews, I'm telling you all that Deadline is on Sunday (Feb 7, 2010) at 12PM because I still have to check all the reviews.
Now I'm taking Bianca's advice and I won't put any strict format rules... But if you're sending a soft copy to me ( rawr.imallama@yahoo.com ) then PLEASE save it as .doc or .docx or .odt and make sure the font is readable.
And do a little background check on the book/movie/whatever you're reviewing. This means: if you're reviewing a book, please tell us who the author is, and if it's a movie tell us who the director is. Kawawa naman yung mga direktor sa mundo, walang credit XD
Plus include genre and of course, your rating (3 stars? 4 stars? what?)
NO SPOILERS! that's a rule.
^^ If it's a movie, please include the names of some actors with major roles.
- I highly suggest you avoid reviewing well known books/movies/etc and try to introduce us to something new :) This isn't for cramming, so if you're gonna write a half-assed article then it's not gonna be included.
- Don't just say 'this book/movie/etc sucks. it's so crappy. i hate it.' because that doesn't help much. If you like/hate it, then TELL US WHY. What makes it good/bad?
^^ Guidelines lang yun.

As for length, sabi ni Bianca any length :)) But don't write a novel, maawa naman kayo.

Soc Sci :)

An EIC yet again -_-

Because Marianne says this is a great excuse. :))

Okay. Firstly, I have to work out the staff. I will be your EIC (.. nostalgic. Just like grade school. -_-), Alyssa will be Business Manager (which I will refer to as Bus Man, out of habit. Sorry.), and Pia will be Art Editor, 'cause she's awesome like that.

Editors. This is the main problem. Whoever wants to apply for a slot, approach me. I can still tweak these around, according to your abilities. That includes kicking you off the staff. So EDITORS. Be responsible.

Categories:
  1. News/Stories - Dave
  2. Sports - Rham
  3. Travel - /vacant/
  4. Entertainment - Gene
  5. Unusual experiences - Jethro
  6. Hobbies - Alyssa
  7. Student problems - /vacant/ I need someone who knows how to edit rants to make it sound like.. well, not a rant.
  8. Letter to the editors - /Jethro wants this slot. But I dunno what this is. Further clarifications needed./
  9. Books/Movie Reviews - Marianne


FLOW OF THE WORK.
(I think I just used HTML syntax in CSS. O_O)
So. Everyone has to make at least one article, right? Have some sense, classify your article under the correct topic above, and pass to the corresponding editor. If you REALLY can't classify, pass to me.

Editors, edit (duh), and determine whether it should be remade completely or will be okay with grammar and spell check. Either way, before Achievement Tests, all articles should be with me for final editing.

After ATs (O_O whut?), I should've had edited everything, and given Pia the articles and everything to layout. Pia, you have until the Monday after Fair (which is ASP LT day, so go read it naoooo) to layout.

Alyssa's father's publishing company will print the magazines for us, if it's a bulk order. We're not sure of this yet 'cause we don't have the number of pages yet or the number of orders (wanna distribute to the whole Pisay? :P) so it might be this publishing company or the one that Pia speaks of. Mmkay?
______________________

Okay, that flow was haywire. T_T

I allotted five days because I dunno how long each will take. Will the ATs be hard? :(

The deadlines are prone to change. As in VERY prone. Check back here often.
So for Math you must answer: (thanks Olin)
BA #s 74-76 p.335(?) maybe not
basta crammable yan

English:
-The requirement for Class Magazine is basically write at least one article per person.
-Bianca is Editor-in-Chief. There are 9 assistant editors, 1 business manager, 1 art editor, and the 18 others just need to write an article (Bianca will be posting something, I expect)
-THE PLAY! O_O

Guys please pay P80 by tomorrow :x OR ELSE. :|
