Re: How to draw dipoles
Also, sif a molecule has more then 1 kind of dipole, how do you determine what kind they are?

Determining Acidity or Basic
Is the only way to determine if a compound is acidic or basic through looking at the carboxyl group attached/not attached?

Re: Unique Reaction Rates [ENDORSED]
The unique rate has to do with the stoichiometric coefficients because it stays the same (proportionality)

Carbon has a greater affinity for an electron than nitrogen because the half filled p subshell is more stable

Re: DeBroglie Equation Units
All of the equations are in terms of the SI units, and the variations of these units (ex kilomoters) need to be changed into the SI units before calculating.

They give us the sheet with all of the basic equations on it, but you should memorize the variations of the equations so that the test goes faster for yourself!

Re: Class Grades
Also, on the syllabus it gives a layout of the exact number of points and the categories that come from, so if you keep track of your test and homework grade you should know pretty well what you should get around!

Re: Light Intensity
Because the intensity of the light corresponds to the amplitude of the wave, the wave intensity for an electromagnetic wave is used when the question requires some knowledge about the amplitude.

Re: Atomic Radius
The atomic radius is the total distance from an atom’s nucleus to the outermost orbital of electron, while the covalent radius is only present if there is a covalent bond involved. If there is, the covalent radius is half the distance between 2 nuclei of the atoms of the same element. Hope that helps!

You can also make phrases that you'd remember that have something to do with them. Then to remember how to do conversions, I always use the units in the problem and make sure by t...
