Re: Post All Chemistry Jokes Here
A chemistry professor couldn't resist interjecting a little philosophy into a class lecture. He interrupted his discussion on balancing chemical equations, saying, "Remember, if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate!"

Re: Multi Step Reaction
I actually had a follow up question:
When looking at elementary steps to a reaction, how do we know which reverse reactions do not affect the overall rate of consumption/formation (15.8, page 634 in textbook). Thank you so much!

Re: Post All Chemistry Jokes Here
Two atoms are walking down the street.
Says one atom to the other, "Hey! I think I lost an electron!"
The other says, "Are you sure??"
"Yes, I'm positive!"

Maximum work in Non-expansion work
Because the electric current flowing through a battery is an example of non-expansion work, how would we achieve maximum work from an electric battery?

Re: Bond Enthalpies (Method #3)
Typically, we will have a table that gives us the standard enthalpies of formation for 1 mole of a given substance. Because the standard reaction enthalpy is also a state function, the standard reaction enthalpy can be calculated by subtracting the combined standard enthalpy of formations of all the...
