    fermentation

    It's a biological process because the yeast enzymes required to catalyse the reaction are living organisms. I think.

    Measuring Intelligence

    Mathematics is not simply remembering formulae/methods of doing questions. If that was the case I'd get 95%+ every time. Maths involves thinking creatively and using abstract ways of thinking like english (no two problems are ever the same). It's just that in maths thinking creatively and in an...

    hardworking Vs. intelligence

    I disagree. Studies of Religion Section 3 essay questions were way out of left field. And for all the Maths courses that just doesn't apply (except remembering formulae). Not to mention some english questions.

    Raw Marks Vs Scaled Marks

    Somebody posted that the aligning process is essentially putting raw marks in the range of 0-100 (or whatever the highest and lowest marks might be) into the range of 50-100 (even though a small % of candidates get <50). Go to the Board of Studies website to see distribution percentages across...

    Raw Marks Vs Scaled Marks

    Firstly, it's Raw Marks vs Aligned Marks. Scaled marks are those which count to your ATAR (and as you know some people choose not to get an ATAR). Secondly, it's practically impossible to say what a raw mark cut off will be for an aligned mark as it changes from year to year, exam to exam...

    Can someone help me with Chem PLZ

    Make sure you 'assess' the impact i.e. make your own judgment as to whether the impact is mainly positive or negative. Edit: What you have sounds good to me (but I am expecting a band 4 in Chemistry so my scientific opinion isn't the best).

    All nighter on BoS on dec16th

    When you think about it - if you have an all nighter it's only going to make the wait for your results/ATAR seem longer. Plus you'll be super tired and won't be able to think straight. So no, I won't be having an 'all nighter'.

    Ethanol Issues and Questions ?????

    The energy and financial cost of separating ethanol from the aqueous ethanol produced in fermentation. Significant. Distillation requires a significant amount of energy and money. The process is not yet energy efficient nor economically viable as fossil fuels require less energy and money in...

    HSC English Advanced- AOS

    Gary Jules - Mad World (song) When I did it I analysed the music more than the lyrics. When analysing lyrics you have to be careful that you don't be too superficial. It's important (I believe) that you talk about the music e.g. instruments, aesthetic etc because the music really enhances the...

    Emily Dickinson

    That simply means you are talking about Dickinson's personal sense of belonging or not belonging. I didn't study these poems though so I can't help you, sorry.

    Which subjects would you achieve the top band in?

    Hopefully Music 1, Studies of Religion 1 and Mathematics Extension 1. But I'm not too confident in any of them.

    Acids and Bases question

    Not sure about 2. For this question (lowest - highest pH), they are all the same concentration so: - Sulfuric acid - strong diprotic acid. - Hydrochloric acid - strong monoprotic. - Acetic Acid - weak acid. - Ammonia solution - weak base. - Sodium Hydroxide - strong base. Get...
