Re: Midterm scratch paper
You do not need to submit your scratch work, it is purely multiple choice.

Re: Midterm 2 and Final
I would assume they're cumulative, more likely than not it is.

Re: Midterm Scores
I was hoping they would be released by tonight, but it does not look like it will be. Hopefully this weekend?

Yea I think this would be the best option

Re: Built-in webcams/Equipment request [ENDORSED]
I am in discussion 2B, does anyone know if I can use an IPad as my external webcam to show my workspace? I feel like this will work better than my phone.

Re: rounding during equations
I keep the exact number throughout my work so I can have a more accurate answer. Once I have an answer, I round based on Sig Figs

Re: How to use Scientific Notation
I also do what Kristina does, in the sense that I take them out of scientific notation to divide/multiply. This just helps me make sure I am multiplying and dividing correctly and and overall gives me a piece of mind that I am messing up my calculations here.

Re: How are you studying?
I have been trying to stay on top of taking notes for the lectures and using that to study off of. I use Cornell style notes so that helps me answer "practice questions" almost in order to refresh my memory on all topics

Re: sig fig
I would highly recommend changing the sig figs at the end so you get the most accurate answer. For your second question, I think you will be marked down for that but I am not entirely sure, my suggestion would be to use the same amount of sig figs as the amount given.

Re: Determining Limiting Reactant
I believe that it is not likely to have limiting reactants, I think there can only be at most 1. Therefore, I would assume that if you got a 1:1 ratio, there would be no limiting reactant.

Re: Periodic Table
I find it very unlikely that you will have to memorize the entire periodic table. I cannot even memorize all the elements, let alone their molar masses. If you are still unsure, I would memorize the 5 most common elements (e.g. Oxygen, Carbon, etc.)

Re: Sig Fig Importance
By using sig figs, and rounding to them, you make your answer more precise to the correct answer.
