    I do (rank + asm. mark): Eng ADV: 1/11 87% Chem: 2/10 83% Physics: 2/12 90% Bio: 1/14 80% IPT: 2/5 91% Maths: 3/22 70% Ext 1.: 2/4 60% My school isn't ranked high at all. I thought my trials were ok. We did the CSSA ones - everything except chem, bio and maths +ext. were above...

    What will you be doing post-HSC?

    rrr Isn't anyone excited about their uni course? I can't wait till i'm in Melbourne! After the exams I'm going to go and lose some weight... the HSC left me no time for running or any exercise.. followed by tons of PURE BLUDGING. The main thing i'm looking forward to is to try and build...

    HSC 2004 Chem Q 29 (a) (ii) - Predict Electrolysis rxns

    Nevermind - that was an easy question: solution -- These are the possible rxns. Rxn 1: K + e- --> K E= -2.94V Rxn 2: H2O + e- --> .5 H2 + OH- E= -0.83V Rxn 3: .5 Br2 (aq) + e- --> Br- E= +1.1V Rxn 4: .5 O2 + 2H+ --> H2O E = +1.23V Compare the E(0)'s...

    HSC 2004 Chem Q 29 (a) (ii) - Predict Electrolysis rxns

    Ok - the question has a beaker of KBr solution and two Platinum electrodes in it. What are the reactions at the anode and cathode? Are they: Anode: 2H2O + 2e- --> H2(g) + 2OH- [E = -0.83 V] Reduction Cathode: 2 H2O --> O2 (g) + 4H+ + 4e- [E = -1.23 V] Oxidation [E(total) = -2.06 V] or...

    WHAT?? Q 15. HSC Chem 2005 paper

    This is the one on 'winkler method'. 0.6 moles of thiosulfate added - how many moles of oxygen and whenever I backtrack through the three equations, i keep getting 0.3 mol O2!!!! WHY?! Please Help!! :mad1:

    B. Sc. (Physics) then M. Engineering (Civil) .. possible??

    I've considered doing that: my original reasons for doing the b. sc., though, was because it was my first choice, it's what i love doing. If i find that I can't get myself employment that i'll like equally as much, at least i'll have my engineering masters to go on to. :rolleyes: I'd...

    B. Sc. (Physics) then M. Engineering (Civil) .. possible??

    Exactly, but what you can do is a number of required units of engineering - and depending on how many units you do, you can go for masters of eng. for 2-3 years.

    B. Sc. (Physics) then M. Engineering (Civil) .. possible??

    I see. Problem solved: here's an email from the university On the second page in the course diagram: look here Depending on how many engineering units you take in the first degree, masters of engineering will take 2-3 years. At least 50 points in relevant engineering study may make you...

    B. Sc. (Physics) then M. Engineering (Civil) .. possible??

    If I graduated with a B. Sc. in Physics, does anyone here know if I would then be eligible to go for the Master of Engineering course majoring in Civil eng. with the degree??? The unimelb website's unclear - the B.sc physics page vaguely says I can go into a range of graduate courses from...

    Experiments You Need to Know

    Indicators are pretty important... E.g. you may have to plan a titration and pick an appropriate indicator to use. Also, cation/anion flame tests and so on... know those comfortably

    Need help with choice: Physics at Usyd...or ??

    I want to do a Bsc. (Physics), and I'm considering putting in USyd as a primary choice for my UAC app this month when it opens. But i'm pretty much still very unsure - it seems like people are pointing to Melbourne U and UQ, etc... If you're doing physics at any of these unis, please tell...
