    Semester 1 USYD Chatter Thread

    Varies a lot depending on your project because you need to do a fair bit of reading to actually do research properly. So unsurprising, how much you get through varies a lot depending on how much you commit to the scholarship, your project, your supervisor etc. Some people have managed to get...

    Easier Junior Units of study?

    You need a organic chemistry brain for it but yeah, not that hard.

    Conjugate Acid/Base pair

    I agree with what you're saying but I think it's a pretty stupid way of making a question - it's too ambiguous and they really should be using a table for something like this.

    Heh, I swear to god, all of mine have it as well but they're all fucking useless. They're just like, we will be teaching you chemistry on metals and organic stuff - the end.

    CHEM3910 Ease: 7-8 Conceptually, there isn't anything extremely difficult in this course but there's a lot of information to remember such as reagents needed which makes the subject pretty dull to learn. You learn about DNA (eg cleavage, structure etc), peptide synthesis (coupling regents...

    moles

    You should stop. In your original post, you weren't even outlining any sort of controversy and writing as n=m/M is not an alternative. Your post wasn't succinct and you basically rambled on about how students get confused when all you needed to say was "n=m/M is what should be used".

    moles

    As I said before, do n=m/M - nothing else.

    moles

    No.

    moles

    The symbol for molar mass is M, not MM - I think it should be acceptable to mark you down if you use MM. The correct formula is n=m/M.

    Free Radicals

    You can either argue it as electron are not paired or the orbitals are not filled - in most cases, the smaller atoms want 8 electrons in their outer shell (boron being an exception, transition metals usually follow 18 electrons - not important for HSC) and they will do anything they can to do...

    HSC 2012-2015 Chemistry Marathon (archive)

    re: HSC Chemistry Marathon Archive In HSC, it's a proton donor, not something that produces hydronium ions - that's only true in water. Not true.

    Should I keep Chemistry?? Help!

    Are you seriously recommending someone to drop X subject because of scaling? FYI, scaling for those 2 are basically equal while General is way lowers.

    Correct, it's bad, mainly because of dog shit teaching.

    Yeah, Masters' lectures are stupidly hard to follow, the others were okay-ish. My choice was either Materials or Catalysis...since I'm already doing the other two.
