We had a fun review session on Friday November 7 and I encourage all students to view it as there were many excellent Q&A. I started my review session by reading out the following chemistry joke given to me by a student: Q. Why should you never trust atoms? A. Because they make up everything! A...

If you're interested in learning more about the science behind baking and chemistry, I would totally recommend watching a TedEd video about the science of cookies! That video got me interested in baking in the first place since I was excited to learn the science behind it. And as a reward for learn...

I think so. It's probably the same set up.

Thank you so much! Good luck on your Midterm :)

Does anyone have a more definite technique on how to get the answer for path b for most thermodynamic questions?

Does anyone want to form a study group together?

A constant‑volume calorimeter was calibrated by carrying out a reaction known to release 1.83 kJ of heat in 0.200 L of solution in the calorimeter (q=−1.83 kJ) , resulting in a temperature rise of 2.98 ∘C . In a subsequent experiment, 100.0 mL of 0.20 M HClO2(aq) and 100.0 mLof 0.20 M NaOH(aq) were ...

I believe it depends on your TA. you might want to clarify it with your TA :)

Yes, I believe so which should add up to 50 points! :)

Kristine_Aramyan_3K wrote:also, are we expected to define any terms for the exams?

I believe it is more working on the problems that we are already doing for the class.

How much should we focus on the textbook's problems vs the sapling ones? The sapling questions are graded so those are the most important, but the textbook problems are very important to ensure that you actually understand the material and are prepared for exams. The Sapling Questions are more impo...

Does anyone have a good/ established structure they would want to share when they would study for Chem 14B? I just want to make sure I'm knocking everything to prepare me well for the exams. I really recommend the textbook and sapling problems. Based on Chem14A it seems like Lavelle tends to pull q...

Does anyone have a better technique of understanding the differences between acids and bases?

Hi I just want to make sure if Professor Lavelle will have lectures tomorrow? Some of my professors are still holding their lecture so I want to make sure?

I believe as long as we post and interact with everyone here. It would be graded as a discussion point :)

Are there solutions posted anywhere for the extra practice textbook problems (not the Sapling questions)? Usually not. But you can find answers for most of them at the end of the textbook. And if you can't, usually chemistry community (here) has the answer For the extra practice textbook problems, ...

Hi I believe it depends on your TA, I think you should check with them how they grade for the discussion points.
