Review Notes
The end of chapter "Summary of Facts and Concepts" and "Key Words" combined with the pink boxed equations in the chapters are as good an overview or review sheet as I could make for you.  The only thing better would be for you to make your own review sheet (See below).  In each chapter review section there are a few things that you are either not responsible for or that need clarification.  I include that information for each chapter below.
1-Thermodynamics 2-Energy/Fuel 3-Entropy & Free Energy
4-Kinetics & Smog
5-Equilibria
6-Acid-Base/Solution Equilibrium
7-Electrochemistry
8-Metals & Polymers


Thermodynamics
Chapter 11-For this section you are only responsible for normal alkanes.
Chapter 6-You are responsible for all the Facts and Concepts and all of the Key Words.
Chapter 9-You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #6 (did others last semester) and the key word "bond energy" (again learned others last semester).
Fuel Values Handout-Understand how to calculate: fuel values, volumetric fuel values, and CO2 intensity (or the inverse).  Be able to used these to compare fuels.

Energy/Fuel
Chapter 13.6-You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #4 and the Key Words: Raoult's law, volatile and ideal solution.
Chapter 11-You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #1-3 and all the Key Words except: addition reaction, chiral, enantiomer, ester, polarimeter, recemic mixture, radical and saponification.
Fossil Fuels Handout-You are responsible for how petroleum is refined, octane ratings, reformulated gasoline, general composition of coal and how fossil fuels form.
Carbohydrates Handout-You are responsible for: monosaccharides, polysaccharides, aldo- versus keto- sugars, cyclization of sugars (hemiacetal formation is another name), α- and β- sugars, condensation to form starch and cellulose, other biomass fuels.

Entropy and Free Energy
Chapter 11.5-You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #4 and the Key Words: chiral, enantiomer, racemic mixture.  Vocabulary from class: stereoisomer. 
Chapter 18- You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #1-6 & 8, and all the Key Words. You are not responsible for calculations using equation 18.1 or anything in section 18.6.
Chapter 22.3 & 22.4- You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #1, 2, 6, 8 and the Key Words: amino acid, DNA, monomer, nucleic acid, nucleotid, polymer, protein, RNA.
Lipids & Caloric Values of Food Handout-You are responsible for the boldfaced vocabulary and calculation of Caloric content starting from free energies of formation.

Kinetics and Smog
Smog Formation Handout- Understand how the relative rates of reactions can lead to changes in species concentrations over time.  Understand the calculation to estimate the temperature at which NO production becomes spontaneous.  Vocabulary: NOx, smog, ozone, catalyst, PAN.
Chapter 14- You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #1-9 and all the Key Words.

Equilibria
Chapter 15- You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #1-9 and all Key Words.

Acid-Base/Solution Equilibrium
Chapter 4.3 - You are responsible for Facts and Concepts # 4 and the Key Words: Bronsted acid, Bronsted base, chemical equilibrium, concentration, dilution, diprotic acid, equivalence point, hydronium ion, indicator, molarity, neutralization, salt, solubility, solute, solution, solvent titration, triprotic acid.
Chapter 16 - You are responsible for Facts and Concepts # 1-12 and all Key Words.
Chapter 17 - You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #1-5.  However, note that Ksp is a very poor estimate of the actual equilibrium constant for dissolution of salts in water.  This is because of the formation of polyatomic ions in solution and the effects of charged particles be close together.  You are also responsible for all Key Words except: qualitative analysis (did last semester).

Electrochemistry
Chapter 4.4- You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #2 & 5 and the Key Words: electrolyte, half-reaction, hydration, molarity, net ionic equation, oxidation number, oxidation state, oxidation reaction, oxidation-reduction reaction, oxidizing agent, redox reaction, reducing agent, reduction reaction, spectator ion.
Chapter 19 - You are responsible for all Facts and Concepts.  Note you are not expected to know which battery uses which reactions, but should be able to understand the reactions as redox and do all the standard electrochemistry calculations on them.  You are responsible for all the Key Words.  You are expected to understand notation like: Zn|Zn2+(1 M)||Cu2+(3 M)|Cu as it represents an electrochemical cell.

Metals & Polymers
Extracting Metals from Ore Handout -
  1. Be able to list the general steps in purifying metals from ore (digging up, roasting, reduction/smelting, possible further purification).
  2. Know the differences in how Fe, Cu and Al are processed.
  3. CO is the most common reducing agent used.
  4. Vocabulary: blast furnace, "coke", slag, "pig" iron, smelting, basic oxygen process, electrolysis.
Chapter 19 - Be familiar with how electrometallurgy is used to purify Al and Cu.  Information about properties of metals you should know:
  1. How preparation of the metals can affect the properties (work hardening, heat treating/annealing/quenching, alloying) and the link between the microscopic structure of the metal and its properties.
  2. How electron sea model of metals explains malleability, ductility, heat conductivity, electrical conductivity and light reflection.
  3. How alloying affects the properties of metal.  Cr and Ni in Fe make stainless steel because the Cr and Ni are more easily oxidized.  Al alloys do not corrode for the same reason, but Al is what is readily oxidized.
  4. Vocabulary: work hardening, annealing, quenching, ductile, malleable, dislocation, defect, alloy, homogeneous alloy, substitutional alloy, interstitial alloy.
Chapter 22 - You are responsible for Facts and Concepts #1-6 and the Key Words: copolymer, homopolymer, monomer, polymer, protein, plus addition polymer, condensation polymer, atactic, syndiotactic and isotactic.  You should be able to tell whether a polymer was produced by a condensation or addition reaction by looking at its structure.
Reading on Macrogalleria web site - You responsible for general concepts of why polymers behave differently from smaller molecules and how cross linking affects polymer properties.
 
Making Your Own Review Sheets
The process of making a review sheet helps to set concepts in your mind.  It will not do you much good if you do it by copying the review material at the end of the chapter.  The most effective way to make the review sheet is to go through the chapter looking for key terms, concepts, equations and relations.  Many of these items will be in bold face, italics or set off in some other way.  The headings for sections are also useful guides to key ideas you should be familiar with.  Then go through the suggested homework problems and make groups of similar types of problems.  Try to come up with a label or description for each group.

I hope some of you find these suggestions useful.
