    Industrial qs

    Yes, it must have been a typo :) I had a look at it... As for c) i), well, the first ionisation pKa is uber negative (sort of :p) but the second ionisaiton pKa is 1.99 :) That should give you an idea of why they say incomplete, otherwise come back and ask again. And *scratch head* I didn't...

    Question about PVC/Polyethylene

    Look on the bright side dreamy, you just found one fiesty chick for your lonely friend :p Kids these days '-__- Anyway, contrary to Casmira's original question, I thought PVC's pretty bad :confused: So why look for the advantage of PE over PVC? *even more confused* You HSCers might want...

    Dehydration of Ethanol to Ethylene

    Hey pixie :) H2SO4 has a high affinity for water and it's prone to hydration (for thermodynamic reasons). Therefore it will dehydrate ethanol to give ethene as you already know. You are probably not satisify by this explanation but to understand more how hydration and dehydration of...

    year 11 chem yearly

    I've just helped my cousin with her year 11 exams about 2 weeks ago and the past paper she showed me had a lot of calculations and Chemistry that is actually useful (it gets worse in year 12). You can try these: - Calculations involving the concept of mole, molar, volume and mass - A few...

    Timmy's "Studying for Chemisty" is basically crap/wrong

    *looks around* *rolls eyes* I found it :D and I feel loved :p *scribles "mito's been here"* Anyway, timmy can't be wrong :p He got a high uai (and I do mean high) ^^ I don't think timmy meant that literally so yeah XD Take it easy U_____U Dinner for me! Laters people!

    Water...im confused

    *waves at the person above Loz* :p I'm back! Anyway.. Hey Loz :) Assuming that you know the octect rule (and you should) and you know how to draw the Lewis-dot diagram for water (H2O), you should realise that the water molecule has two lone pairs on the Oxygen atom as Jumbo Cactuar has...

    Arg! I hate chem!

    I think we came across that thing briefly in Justin's lecture ;) So it didnt' scar me neither xD so what exactly was the confrontation? :confsued: (ooh, and are you Irish, too? :p sorry :p but I really don't have a clue :confused: ) I agree with that! ;) If you look at the the average IQ...

    Arg! I hate chem!

    yes :p that's where I got it.. I have a special attachement to mitochondria (well, we all do literally :p) they're just soooo cute don't you think? :p and I think I have started spamming again :p I'm making an analogy of jelly-beans and Mr-beans with radioactive decay at the moment :p...

    Arg! I hate chem!

    omg! you are soooo telling me what happened :p since sending pm's to you doesn't really work :p I'm afraid that this "confrontation" has to go public :p I like Dr Moran ;) she's nice.. and hello to you :p you're very very close to me (geographically) ^_________^

    My Hitchhikers Books Arrived!!!

    oooh! do they have pictures in them? if so I'll just buy them on ebay.. how annoying is it when you flip the page and it turns out to be a not very nice looking picture from the movie.. and so far my pictureless-hitchiker-hunt it is a fruitless pursuit :(

    Arg! I hate chem!

    lol :p you're not the only one :p it'll be more challenging next year, it's like deciphering codes :confused: but then they don't test you on naming carbon compounds :p and no.. I've never tried titrating with shaky legs.. and I don't intend to :p eewww..

    Arg! I hate chem!

    lol! I can't argue with that ;) how's studying going? my head is stuck in the Latin assignments :D (or should I cry?) *mito starts spamming* aww.. there goes my 357 but seriously, what's with guys and (half-)naked women avatars? at least my pichu is cute..

    Arg! I hate chem!

    why don't you come to the Chemistry forums more often and give us a hand :p *waves at aireness* I have no objection to.. the last bit :p but maybe less dramatic since you need to keep your legs and hands steady :p edited: omg! my post count consists of consecutive odd numbers :D (357)...
