Re: Memorize electromagnetic spectrum for midterm?
I agree with the above posts. It is important to know the general ones because we will be using those constantly while solving problems in class.

Re: Midterm
Ive heard that the midterm is around 20 questions. I am not sure how true that is given that there are only 50 minutes.

Re: Equation masterlist
Thank you for replying to this question! I do was missing some equations from my personal notes. I had a close question, do you guys think that for the exam the equations will be provided for our reference?

Re: Midterm monitoring
I had a similar question as well. I too like to read the questions aloud. Does anyone know if we can be muted for the duration of the exam?

Re: Textbook
Also, just for some helpful Information, the homework is the tab on CCLE and it will automatically direct you to Sapling where you put in your access code.

Re: Stefann-Boltzmann law and Wein's Law
I dont think you need to know them for the exam. But just understanding how those laws relate to the content can be helpful to understanding larger contexts.

It can also depend on your TA. But, I believe you will be okay with using your cell phone as a web cam.

Re: Sampling
Sampling gives us unlimited attempts. As long as you complete it you are good. you aren't graded on the number of attempts, just completing it and getting them right eventually. Hope this helps !

Re: Textbook
You can purchase sapling from the bruin store in person if you still are unable to locate it online. Once you have the sapling code, then you can just click on the homework in week 1 and it should direct you to inputting a sapling code to access the course.

Avogadro's Constant
Hi guys! I am a little confused on what the Avogadro constant represents and when best to use it? do we use it to help convert unit identification or something else?

Re: Rusty on High School Chem [ENDORSED]
I am also pretty rusty on chemistry and need additional resources to catch up to the speed that this chem class is going. One of the resources that I thought was also pretty helpful are the bar charts and periodic table packets that you can purchase from the bruin store. They give definitions and sm...

Re: E-Book
I think once you purchase sapling it will have the digital textbook on there. I also have a pdf version of the textbook so if you would like to access the textbook that way, please feel free to reach out to me through the groupme created.

Re: E.7 calculate atoms in moles
1 mole is the number of atoms in 12 grams of carbon 12, which equals 6.022 * 10^23 (Avogadro constant). Specifically for this question, I think that it could be solved by dividing the number of carbon atoms by Avogadro constant, according to the definition of 1 mole. This was very helpful. Thank yo...

Re: Advice from a Medical Student - Part II [ENDORSED]
You have inspired me immensely! I know this is a bit unrelated to Chemistry and its topics, but how was the transition when it came to applying to medical school? what were some of the big necessities that made applying to medical school make you stand out?
