    Conquering Chemistry-eutrophication

    so basically: excess nutrients --> growth of algae --> all oxygen consumed --> algae dies --> increased numbers of bacteria --> toxins --> everything generally bad ???

    Conquering Chemistry-eutrophication

    isn't it the bacteria that eats the rotting crap that consumes the oxygen?

    Different content this year than past exams

    i was just discussing this with my friend. do you think, because record numbers are doing chem this year, they'd make it harder than previous years?

    Battery Questions

    how is it more time consuming? you don't waste time constructing sentences, and they don't expect a perfectly ruled table for that kind of answer. i usually get away with my naughts and crosses type scribble

    Battery Questions

    for straighforward comparison questions it's best to do a table, cos then you know you won't forget anything, or contradict yourself. evaluation statement only if they ask for that. edit: damn i type slow...

    HELP!! can anyone explain the galvanic cell??

    so, wait. let me just check. oxidation ALWAYS occurs at the anode, and reduction ALWAYS occurs at the cathode, but whether they're positive or negative changes between an electrolytic cell and a galvanic cell right?

    Expected Mark

    yeah, that's what i always thought - a mark in the 80's considered pretty good for HSC chem exam.

    What is your best core topic?

    yeah, i sucked hard in prelim, and now i'm doing much better, but still not great. the "better" part could be because my friends dropped chem so now i have no one to distract me :P i'd say production. all that polymer stuff is easy

    Who used a prepared essay for Module A

    but how would THEY (BOS) know that as a year, we suck, until they test us as a year?

    B Sci cutoff

    i'm wondering the same thing. i'm considering going to UTS for the international studies course, but i can get into other unis science for sure. would UTS be a stupid choice then? what's wrong with it?
