What Are Orbitals in Chemistry?

What Are Orbitals in Chemistry?If you've ever wondered what orbitals are, or why you would want to learn about them, then you're not alone. Even the most educated of scientists often have a hard time grasping the basic concepts of what orbitals are and how they work.It's easy to understand that an orbital is a unit of chemical solution. What is less clear is how it works and why it is important.The most important property of the orbitals is that it serves as a unit for measuring the concentration of any compound. This is what sets it apart from other chemical compounds. In the realm of organic chemistry, for example, it isn't much of a problem to measure the concentration of a substance based on the density and the volume. On the other hand, for materials with an ionic charge, it is critical to know the composition of the compound itself.Moreover, there are compounds that are highly reactive, and that can be very difficult to deal with for organic chemists since these compounds tend to have complex chemical bonds. It is these kinds of problems that orbitals come in handy, since their size allows for constant and accurate measurements.There are many different kinds of orbitals, and a big chunk of them can be found in common chemistry textbooks. In fact, there are more than 50 orbital types!The most common kind of orbitals is the ionic type and is found in almost all organic chemistry textbooks. What this type of orbitals are, however, is that they are a way to connect two charged molecules together. They are also sometimes called covalent rings, or bridging rings.These are the most common molecular orbital types, and they are also what you'll find in textbooks. It is worth noting, however, that there are many more compound oriented variations of orbitals, and most chemistry students will find it easier to study compounds as opposed to the simplest of them.

Test Taking Tips for High School Students

Test Taking Tips for High School Students Test Taking Tips for High School Students If your teen struggles with test taking, he or she isnt alone. For many students, tests are highly stressful, causing fear for even those who study diligently in advance. Luckily, there are a number of test taking strategies and tips that will help your teen boost his or her chances for exam success, whether taking a standardized exam or a pop quiz in English class. Adopt a positive and realistic outlook. Before your teen ever cracks a book to study, be sure you explain this: no test is a completely accurate measure of a students knowledge and no test is worth excessive anxiety. Remind your teen frequentlyand especially before a test daythat all you and the teacher expect is sincere effort, not perfection. Putting things into perspective will help ease those worries and allow your teen to simply demonstrate his or her knowledge. Adopt a few go-to stress management techniques. Teens who experience test anxiety should arm themselves with a few trusted relaxation practices and stress busters. For many students, taking a few moments to close their eyes and think and visualize positive things works wonders. For others, stretching and deep breathing can slow down a racing heart and bring oxygen into the blood flow, creating a calming effect. Talk with your teens teacher about effective techniques to calm oneself and stay focused and optimistic during a test. Jot down the cant forgets right away. When beginning a test, your teen should take a minute to write down (on a piece of scrap paper, if provided, or in the margin of the exam) any formulas, key facts or other important information that he or she might need to refer to during the test. Calculate a time budget. Encourage your teen at the start of the test to perform a quick calculation on how much time to spend on each question. If given 60 minutes to complete a test with 45 multiple choice questions, your teen should average around one minute 20 seconds per question. So, this means your teen must pace him or herself and check the clock a few times throughout the exam. Managing ones time well is an essential part of being a good test taker. Save the hardest for last. Every exam will have a few brain busters that trip up your teen, and getting hung up on these mid-exam can cause unneeded anxiety. Instead of spinning the wheels on a challenging question for more than your teens budgeted time, encourage him or her to skip and circle such problems. Your teen can revisit those questions at the end of the examas long as he or she leaves sufficient time to work on them. Leave some review time. Ideally, your teen will be able to go over the exam one final time before the test ends to review all answers and re-read any confusing questions where your teen wasnt certain about the answer. At that time, your teen should also review the test for any glaring errors such as leaving their name off the test or any unanswered questions. Test taking isnt easy for many students, but there are few signs to watch for that may indicate your teen has more than a case of pre-exam nerves: Consistently panics about exams and studying for them. Studies for long periods of time, but exam scores dont reflect the effort. Consistently underperforms on exams for which the student studied or claims to have studied. Whether your teen struggles on tests occasionally or always, or would simply like help becoming a better test taker (and better at preparing for tests), Huntington can help. Our highly trained tutors can work with your teen to develop the confidence and test taking skills and strategies he or she needs to make high schooland collegea success.

If You Answer Yes to These Questions, You Can Handle a Part-Time Job

If You Answer Yes to These Questions, You Can Handle a Part-Time Job via Pixabay Do You Have Some Free Time? Are there multiple times a week that you find yourself binging on a newly released Netflix show? Maybe you find that you get your school work done in an incredibly short amount of time and you’re bored while your friends are still studying and writing papers. If you have multiple hours of free time each week, including the weekends, it’s probably time for you to find a part-time job. Think of it, you can fill those empty hours with making money! Is Your Workload Pretty Light? Each semester in college is different. The workload during some semesters may be absolutely unbearable and you may be drowning in assignments while other semesters may have a much lighter workload. If you are taking general education courses or mostly electives this semester, your workload is most likely be easier and lighter than if you were taking core classes for your major. If you find that you are able to finish your work quickly and it isn’t too demanding, you can probably handle a part-time job. via Pixabay Do You Have Good Time Management Skills? Time management is an important skill to perfect and maintain throughout life, not just during college. We can all be procrastinators sometimes, it’s only human. However, if you find that you fight the urge to procrastinate and don’t leave assignments until the last second, you can most likely handle a part-time job. When working and going to school, it’s important to stick to a schedule and have your work done on time. This may mean that you have to finish an assignment a week early so you don’t fall behind and are still able to work. Are You Motivated? Make a list of your goals for the semester, life, and after college. If your goal is to make money and not be drowning in student loan debt for years, you are probably motivated to make time to work a few hours during the week. It’s important to have motivation throughout the semester because if you lack motivation, you will most likely be miserable and won’t excel in school or your part-time job. Can You Find a Job Related to Your Major? Depending on your major, you may be able to find a job that will help you gain experience for when you graduate and start your career. Not only will this be a great way to make money, but it is an awesome resume booster! This part-time job may also take the form of an internship, which is perfect because it can also count for school credit. via Pixabay Will You Be Overwhelmed? You know yourself best. Ask yourself if you will be overwhelmed if you start working a part-time job. If you find that you are struggling to finish assignments and projects on time from more than just procrastinating, then maybe a part-time job will have to wait until next semester. Seriously think about your current workload, social life, and extracurricular activities. If you feel that you can fit in a few extra hours a week to make some money at a part-time job and you are motivated to make it work, then go for it! Is It Worth Your Time? Sometimes working for minimum wage won’t be worth your time while in school. Depending on the commute time and cost, you may be making much less than you originally thought when you applied for the job. If you find that a majority of your earnings will be going towards travel expenses, food, or any other additional costs of having the job, it may be better to sit this one out and focus on your schooling or finding an internship. If you answered “yes” to these questions, it may be time to start your part-time job search. When applying, make sure that the manager or supervisor is flexible in their scheduling and understands that you are a student first and an employee second. Good luck!

Top 5 Study Spots

Top 5 Study Spots This post was written by Megan YbarraWhen I was in college, my study set-up during my first semester of freshman year was a package of chocolate chip pop tarts, some coffee, and my books and papers all over my bed. And then my roommate decided to start up a sorority for Hispanic scholars, so my dorm room became less of an educational oasis and more Latina World Command. It was then I discovered a desk in the northwest corner of the sixth floor of the library, which was to be my constant companion throughout the next three and a half years. Libraries top the list, of course, but here are some other alternatives to study in when your house has become your hell (academically speaking).1. LibrariesThey’re quiet, they have alternative texts if the book you’ve got isn’t much help to you, and these days many local libraries host and sponsor free tutoring programs. In fact, though Frog Tutoring specializes in private, in-home tutoring, most of the tutoring sessions for college students happen at libraries due to the disruptive nature of the student’s home life and the accrued cost of meeting at a coffee shop three times a week. Library chairs are also very cushy, by and large.2. Coffee ShopsAh, for the days when I studied James Joyce on a soft, velvet cushion with a nice blueberry muffin, a caramel macchiato, and an industrial sized bottle of ibuprofen. You can find an English tutor to help you with pretty much any genre and/or book but Finnegan’s Wake, although I understand that getting an A on that paper is a good indication that your psychiatrist is about to up your dosage. It’s also a great place for small, relaxed study group sessions, as long as everyone’s wallet is equal to the task. 3. Designated Study HallsMany high schools and dorms have large rooms dedicated to this purpose. Mine had one with a piano in it, which was nice when the pianist was a music major, but impossible when the pianist was practicing for his Billy Joel cover band (true story ). Nine times out of ten, this is not an issue.4. Parks or The QuadFresh air and sunlight are actually conducive to retention and performance. You are also likely to run into a classmate who may also need to study. These situations are actually really great for language students looking to hone their conversational skills.5. Laundry Room/LaundromatYes, seriously. The background noise is white and not distracting and people will generally leave you alone. If you’re a structured studier, your study breaks are predictably timed and you’re managing your time effectively â€" especially if you do actually meet the [person] of your dreams there after all. Tell us what your favorite study spot is in the comments below!
