    HSC 2012-2015 Chemistry Marathon (archive)

    re: HSC Chemistry Marathon Archive Dilute sulfuric acid is already ionised so it can already attack metals eg steel containers. Concentrated sulfuric acid is all molecular, hence it reacts vigorously with water so using steel containers is ideal since it prevents moisture from entering and...

    HSC 2012-2015 Chemistry Marathon (archive)

    re: HSC Chemistry Marathon Archive You don't have to calculate anything for any of them apart from writing the equations. By moles = mass / molar mass, the substance with the LOWEST molar mass produces the greatest moles of CO2 (as molar mass decreases, moles increases since it is a 1g...

    General Thoughts.

    It was 8% per year, so declining balance Either way, C,D should have been ruled IIRC because they reached 0 (you can't reach 0 if you decrease by a %) then it was A,B.. One of those had wrong values (try calculating it for n = 8 years for example and see if it matches the graph)

    Cheeky calculator trick

    1. Get out your calculator 2. Know that x / x = 1 3. Type in 0.666666666666666 / 0.66666666666666987654321 (15 sixes divided by 14 sixes + 987654321) 4. Press = 5. Accept that your mind = blown 6. Re-evaluate life choice

    Question about pathways to medicine

    Not planning on med but just curious I know someone who did 1 year of medical science then went into med. How does that work? Do they factor in your GPA + UMAT result, or GPA + Atar + Umat result? OR highest of the two or what not?

    Basic potential energy question

    -GmM/r gives you the gravitational potential energy at a specific point for the object in space. Thus if you use -GmM/r you need to use it twice (final - initial) since you are after change in GPE. Using e=mgh gives you change in gpe but assumes 'g' is constant (g is not constant because it...
