BVHS CHEMISTRY LAB

Wk#3: January 26-30, 2026 ~ Honors Chemistry

Essential Question

a) How can Lewis structures, bonding type, resonance, and formal charge be analyzed to explain and justify how atoms bond in molecules and ions?


b) How can analyzing my first-semester performance and learning strategies help me make intentional adjustments to improve my understanding, skills, and outcomes in the second semester?

Learning Target

a) I can analyze chemical bonding by evaluating Lewis structures, identifying ionic and covalent bonding, comparing resonance structures, and using formal charge to justify the most accurate structure.


b) I can analyze my first-semester strengths, challenges, and learning habits and explain specific strategies I will adjust & apply to improve my performance/understanding in the 2nd semester.
