hey guys, i just wanted to ask, for the hsc, can we use american styled stoichemiotery???

its pretty much the same thing, but its formatted differently,
like in america,
the whole calcualtion is written out as fractions being multiplied and unit cancelation shown. the whole question would take up about 1-2 lines, opposed to the australian taught style, which takes up a page.
its quicker, esier to do, and esier to follow.

would we get marks taken off for using it beucase thats not the way taught in highschool???

You probably won't lose marks for it, but its not recommended.

Australian style is better imo, you just suck at balancing.
