    Textbook for new syllabus

    There are three main textbooks I would recommend, it depends on your studying style. The above posters are correct in pointing out that Pearson is great at explaining concepts, but it does lack exam-style or concept-style questions. Surfing's NSW Chemistry isn't bad. It's a very concise...

    Prelim Chemistry New Syllabus Notes?

    Unfortunately there will be limited notes available, as you said, due to the new syllabus. I went through the same experience when I sat the 2001 HSC, when the syllabus changed completely too. It's probably best that you rely on the syllabus dot points, as well as developing a habit of making...

    Back Titration

    Yes you absolutely need to know it. Back titrations are quite common in HSC exams and even trials. From a calculation standpoint it's not a difficult task. It's the logic behind why back titrations are used that's important. Let me know if you need more info.

    Homogeneous. Within the confines of secondary education (high school), homogeneous substances are classified as a mixture that will not settle over time and cannot be filtered using filtration techniques (i.e. Milk)

    Help needed with this h=mcat question please!!!!

    So this question requires you to recognize that the copper cube has reached 100 degrees celsius since it's equilibrated with the boiling water. When the cube is transferred to a beaker of water at 25 degrees celsius the total heat of the system will redistribute and re-equilibrate. What this...

    Textbook for new syllabus in Phys, Chem, Bio

    The Pearson ones are great for notes and understanding the new syllabus, but it's weak on questions and problems. I've found that the Surfing ones provide good revision notes, but also a truckload of questions as well. It really depends on your learning style.

    Physics New Syllabus Study

    Hey JOWK, Firstly you would need to understand the syllabus well. This will allow you to gain an understanding of why NESA has decided to overhaul the sciences. A good way to study would be to look for two types of books. Ones that are comprehensive in their method of explanations, and one...
