__**SOLVING CONCEPTUAL PROBLEMS IN CHEMISTRY:**__ Most people are deceived into thinking that all problems involve calculations. But evidently there are problems that simply ask to apply concepts. The first step to solving conceptual problems is to identify the known and unknown in the problem. For example: Mike is training for the cross country team on a prosthetic leg (biotechnology chemistry.) He will run 4 miles per day, 5 days a week. How many miles will he run during the next six weeks? The KNOWN in this problem is how many miles he will run per day(4), amount of days per week. The UNKNOWN in this problem is how many miles he run during the next six weeks. Then you calculate the problem. Some of the most important things to do when solving conceptual problems is making sure you have the correct units. The steps for solving conceptual problems are modified from the usual 3 step problem to a simple 2 step problem. The first step is to **Analyze** the problem, then **Solve** the problem.
