    EQUILIBRIUM HELP: Freezing a carbonated drink.

    I agree with your teacher :p The net equation of the equilibrium would be CO2(g) <--> CO2(aq) + energy. I don't understand your argument that CO2 would be "forced out" of water into a gaseous state - on the contrary, seeing that temperature is dropped, the exothermic side of the equilibrium...

    simpson rule

    You mean you have lessons with 2u people? How strange. We are put into classes according to how many units of maths we do, and each class just allocate time to 2u/3u or 3u/4u in the same proportions as the number of units of each. And yes, you do have to know all of 2u for 3u and 4u. It...

    recent discoveries of elements

    ^I thought they withdrew the statement that they discovered Uuo in the following year, since no one else in the world could replicate what they did. In 2006 though, this other team in Russia actually discovered Uuo, using a different combination of materials for bombardment (think it was Ca-48...

    Help Quickly

    Not quite sure what you're asking there...do you mean to ask at which electrode is oxidation taking place and at which is reduction taking place? (if so, since hydrogen gas forms at Pt, you know that reduction of hydrogen ions occur there, so Pt is the cathode) Or do you mean which electrode is...

    Transformers- conservation of energy?

    The assumption that input power = output power must hold for that Vp/Vs = np/ns formula to hold, but conservation of energy from the primary coils to the secondary coils cannot hold if there is flux leakage. That's why you need soft iron core in both primary and secondary coils to act as a...

    1st assessment

    It wouldn't really matter markwise, as SS pointed out, but if it was me I'd prolly go insane facing a teacher alone in class, all the time :o

    How short is your attention span when studying?

    My attention span fluctuates. A lot. Anywhere from 15 minutes to 5 or 6 hours (in the latter case matters such as lunch and dinner are particularly annoying, but saviours to my sanity in the former case) :o

    Test notification to short?

    Come on, it's just two days. You can't get *that* much more preparation, anyhow. If you've really done your stuff well over the time, instead of planning to cram in the last few weeks, the two days shouldn't be a worry :)

    Sketching gradient functions of a graph.

    All above are correct. These are wrong. If the point at C is a rising point of inflexion, then the gradient of the graph first decreases till at C, then increases. Thus the point will be a minimum on the graph of f'(x). Similarly, the point will be a maximum on f'(x), when it is a decreasing...

    How was your school day?

    Ooh, where did you hear about it? I'm so un-informed when it comes to things like those :o I would've wanted do something like those though, they sound pretty fun :D Haha, how nice of him :o Maybe look the words up? Google would ask you, "did you mean ___" if it thinks you misspelt the word :p

    HSC Trial Dates Changed!!

    My trials are never scheduled in mid-term 3. They start pretty soon after we come back for the term :o Still, don't worry. Just do what you normally do, except perhaps plan your studies so you'd get it all done before then :)

    How was your school day?

    There there. At least you have one loyal subject :o All my subjects betray me at one time or another x.x 3u maths today, still got physics next Monday and 4u maths next Wednesday. Ugh, let's cram...

    High UAI!

    I would actually say that it depends on how well your school does and how hard your school marks you. So you don't necessarily have to have band 6 for all subjects.
