    help please! (complex numbers)

    z=2cis(pi/3) in mod-arg form z^n = 2^n [cos (n*pi/3) + i sin (n*pi/3)] for it to be real, imaginary part = 0 sin (n*pi/3) = 0 etc. for imaginary, cos(n*pi/3) = 0 n*pi/3 = -3pi/2, -pi/2, pi/2, 3pi/2, etc. there wont be integral n for the induction thing... I'll just prove the...

    Jrahs 95 - Q8b

    hmm.. but whats flawed in my argument?? that P(if its a boy, its from senior) = P(first student is from junior) = 7/13 ?? also, 7/13 < 49/76 and this really makes me confused... :confused: if first student isnt from junior, the second cant be from senior... but the probability that the...

    Jrahs 95 - Q8b

    no [EDIT: maybe yes.. I didn't really get what he meant], I thought: if the boy is picked for the second student, 400/700 is for he to be from Senior when the first student is not a boy (so there are still 700 boys total). 400/699 is for he to be from Senior when the first student is a boy...

    modelling a solvay step

    well solvay process has several components u shud know all if u can probably just know the main eqns and make up the steps on the spot ^^ brine purification isnt one of the major ones to model, so I'd think that its a little inappropriate... u can assume its pure enough actually.. model...

    basically yes. just mention the colour changes as u increase the temp.. (from red to purple), and changes to red again when u cool it down again. mention how u heat it (using bunsen), draw diagram if the number of marks sounds appropriate u analyse the equil qualitatively just by observing...

    Solvay Process calculations??

    faraday constant is the quantity of electricity carried by one mole of electrons. it is 96500 coulombs per mole. I dont think u need this.. I havent done this but its in my Conquering Chem textbook but it might be there as an extra. And BTW its not unique for Solvay.. questions involving this...

    salt bridge

    anions go to the beaker with the anode. and vice versa. the beaker with anode is the positive one (oxidation occurs.. release electrons up to the circuit and so the electrode gets more positive), hence the anions are negative.

    help!

    enviro issues 1. sulfur (S) is easily oxidised to SO2 or reduced to H2S, both of which are serious air pollutants even at low concentrations. 2. in the extraction of sulfur we use water. it's necessary to re-use it and not discharge it to the enviro becoz it may have dissolved impurities that...
