Equatorial and axial alternate, so make sure that you are alternating between the different carbons and their bonds.

Most chem jokes are bad since most of the good ones Argon.

Yes you can. It would be a clever way to ask a question on the quiz. based on the units, you can determine the order.

I asked the guy sitting next to me if he had any Sodium Hypobromite…
He said NaBrO

The point of knowing that it is reversible through the same process allows you to use the same half-steps and information in order to calculate the reverse reaction.

Why did the bear dissolve in water?
Because it was a polar bear!

Kareem

Reducing agent means that it is willing to oxidize. The more willing it is to oxidize, the stronger the reducing agent. So the more electrons an atom or ion is willing to donate, the stronger it is as a reducing agent.

“What is the difference between thermodynamics and a stick?

Answer: “A stick has two ends and no beginning. Thermodynamics has two ‘beginnings’ (the first and second law) and no end.”

The question is asking about stability in terms of the decomposition, meaning is it stable to decompose into its elements. The questions is basically asking if it will decompose spontaneously or not, so when it decomposes is it stable or not.

Kareem

I believe the whole point is that the systems were at equilibrium and then something upset the balance and you calculate the work expended to return to equilibrium.

At its sublimation point, it would just be the energy of formation at water state that it is in, whether its a solid or a gas. Doesn't matter the phase change.

Yes, R will be provided to us. You just have to pay attention to what the question is asking for, and it may require you to convert from partial pressure to concentration or the other way around. PV=nRt, which means that P/Rt=n/V, P/Rt=molarity. Using that conversion, you should be able to derive on...

The question states that we observe this spectrum during the emission of light, which means that the electron is giving off energy, ergo it is moving from a higher energy level to a lower energy level. If it was going from low to high it would be absorbing energy rather than giving it off. This is w...

If you can calculate the concentration of OH- you can calculate the concentration of H3O+. Their concentrations multiply out to 1x10^-14.

Kareem

Sometimes you will be dealing with a reaction that has both Kp and Kc. Make sure that you understand what the question is asking. If its asking for the molar concentration, that use Kc, but if its asking about pressure then use Kp. Remember that aqueous solutions can produce both aqueous, gaseous, a...

If a bear in Yosemite and a bear in Alaska both fall into the water, which one dissolves faster? The one in Alaska obviously because it's polar.

I asked the guy sitting next to me if he had any sodium hypobromite... he said NaBro.

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.
