    Displacement reactions.

    I think your a tad mixed up. If you are refering to electrolytic reactions, then you are refering to electrolysis which is of course the spilting of a molten substance (electrolyte) by passing an electric current though it and by doing so attacting the respected ions to the cathode (attracts...

    Equilibrium

    Any equilibrium equation that you will encounter in the HSC will usually ask you what would happen if the concentration is increased or decreased(pressure for gas), or temperature is increased or decreased ect... To be able to work out how temp ect will effect the system you firstly need to...

    Should i drop Physics?

    I'm doing both 2U maths and physics atm and i'm more inclined to science than maths. But i did a few experiments on sam (which i know isn't the last word but nevertheless pretty accurate) and physics does scale better than 2U maths. I mean, depends on the canditor but in 2007 HSC the median mark...

    Chemistry or Senior Science?

    Senior science is a glorified waste of time, it's all generalised info, much like the year 9&10 course. Chem scales a lot better and if your into maths then i think u'll enjoy chem more, its around a 30/70 split of maths to info. Still awesome though i loved chem... In the end, up 2 u. Cheers.

    Chemistry questions help please!

    Look, i love chem, i really do, but the only way u'll get this stuff down pat Razizi is if you do your homework yourself. It's like your posting your whole work sheet. If your seriously stuck with a question then post as you did with your second post which was a lagit attempt. In the end it's...

    dry cell or lead-acid cell

    Search hard and retain that info, a 7mark question just might come your way in any exam this year, the dry cell/lead acid question is a favourite of teachers and BOS. My personal feelings, lead acid is easier. EG. Car battery. Just a few fun facts that i can remember:), lead-acid batteries...

    Displacement reactions.

    Lol, streching my memory here.... 1. Standard reduction potentials are definatly the way to go for a serious chemist but if u want to try a short cut Fluorine is the most electronegative element and everything that moves away from it is less and less electronegative. An elements ionisation...
