Re: Balancing equations

I keep getting confused on when you need to switch the sign of the reduction potential. If the given half equation has already flipped the reduction potential so that it is negative, do you simply add together the reduction potentials or do you flip the reduction potential back, and then do cathode...

Re: How does the points associated with the online forum work?

As long as you post at least once every week (either by asking or answering a question), you get one point per week. And since there are a total of ten weeks, that's ten points possible in total. Hope that helps. :)

Re: Hess's Law

Also regarding Hess's law, when you are given an equation for a reaction and the standard reaction enthalpies of each individual reactant and product of the given equation, how do you solve for the standard reaction enthalpy of the entire reaction?

Acidity constants [ENDORSED]

Is an ionization constant the same as an acidity constant? Can these terms be used interchangeably?

Why do we hybridize?

Hello!
During lectures, I'm following how we are relating hybridizations to molecular shape, but I just don't understand why we hybridize separate orbitals to make them one. What is the purpose of hybridization?
