PCh10 15 lec 2

(5/4/20, bes)

Good morning.

Hope you got outside this weekend to enjoy the nice weather. My garden is 50% planted...i hope we don't get a freeze! Only this an one more "lecture" before we move into finals week.

Grades

I am sure many of you are curious about your grades; i am working on summary page for you and hope to have this done by Tuesday noon.

Comp Chem Lab #4 (last Thurs)

As a reminder, the reporting for the Comp Chem lab #4 is due by Weds at 5 pm, but if you get it to me by Tuesday am, i can work it into the grade summary.

As a reminder

- it is best to do MP2/6-31G(d) for both forms of phenolphthalein and CIS/6-31G(d) for the UV-Vis calcs.

- it is okay to do HF/6-31G(d) for both forms of phenolphthalein and HF/6-31G(d) for the UV-Vis calcs.

- at minimum you should be able to do HF/6-31G(d) to optimize the geometry.

Final Exam

We are scheduled to have the final exam on Sat, May 9th. I have not yet worked on this, but i hope to have it "ready" by Sat am and then collect it by Weds, May 13th at 5pm.
