April 8, 2020 — Day 13

172 days before CETs season!! 拾✨

7 AM: I wasn’t able to review yesterday because I fell asleep early. I woke up around 9 pm again, so I decided to take the day off and just double the coverage for today. I started the day by drinking milk (yey!) and by answering a refresher worksheet about redox reactions. The next topic that I’ll study would be about half reactions and balancing reactions. After so, I’ll move on with neutralization reaction and precipitation reaction. I hope to finish all by noon so I can move to another topic.

4 PM: I’m halfway done with balancing redox reactions under acidic and basic condition. (I’m starting to feel sleepy, oh no! )

I’m done with balancing redox reactions so I’m gonna take a short break. I’ll take a bath again because I’m feeling sleepy and it’s sooOOooOO hot. Summer’s really arriving,,,

Study time: 03:42:40.41

I didn’t expect chemical reactions to be this broad. When it was taught to us during 11th grade, all I knew was the four basic types of chemical reactions. Anyway, I’ll be ending today’s review session once I finish concentration and solubility. My mind needs to rest.

Study time: 08:03:46.77

So far, today’s the longest study I have ever done. I’ll try to study beyond those hours since community quarantine has been extended and apart from doing household chores, reviewing is one way to be productive. I should maximize the time I have to review, who knows if I can have one once another academic year starts (I’m expecting it to be harder since I’m a graduating student).

WRAP UP: oxidizing agents & reducing agents, balancing redox reaction: neutral, acidic, & basic solution, redox reaction: half reaction, precipitation reactions & net ionic equation, solubility rules for double displacement, solutions: saturated, unsaturated & supersaturated, concentration & solubility
