    Are old UAC guides still available?

    Oh I have that too. I'm more interested in 05/06/07, just so I can see the worst case scenario for the UAI requirement for my desired course next year. Thanks anyway =]

    Are old UAC guides still available?

    I would like to see the past UAI requirements for my desired course over the past few years to get an idea of what it might be next year. Does anyone know if you can view old UAC guides on the internet somewhere? Google only gives me this year's guide =[ I'm mainly interested in University of...

    "Impacts of the development of transformers on society"

    This sounds very similar to "how AC electricity has impacted society"..

    "Impacts of the development of transformers on society"

    I'm currently reading over Keep It Simple Science, and it doesn't provide much info on this point. I know it relates to the impacts of AC electricity on society, but are there any specific impacts that the development of transformers contribute to? Thanks in advance =]

    Question about alkanols/alkanoic acids.

    The MP's/BP's of alkanols is due to the hydrogen bonding between the molecules (as a result of the O-H functional group) For example, ethanol: CH3-CH2-O[H <--> O]H-CH2-CH3 The MP's and BP's of alkanoic acids are even higher due to the presence of twice as many hydrogen bonds For example...

    HELP - Chem Pracs?

    Yeah, but that's one prac.. I'm referring to all the main pracs of Chemical Monitoring and Management as well as Production of Materials. Is there a site that reviews them? Telling me you guys did a prac in class is pretty irrelevant =/

    HELP - Chem Pracs?

    So I've got a prac assessment next week. Our questions are based on all the in-class investigations we have carried out in Production of Materials and Chemical Monitoring & Management. I'd like to know if there are any online resources that fully draw out and explain these pracs. Main pracs I...

    Trig Integration help!

    Thanks for your help! For 2, is that an accepted rule, or is there working to it? For 3, what did you do here: ∫sin³x dx = -∫(1- u<sup>2</sup>du ?

    Trig Integration help!

    1. Show that secxcosecx = (sec²x)/(tanx) 2. Find ∫sinx°dx 3. Use the substitution u = cosx to find ∫sin³x dx These should be simple, but I'm stuck! Thanks in advance, your help is very much appreciated =]

    Solubility of CO2?

    Describe the solubility of carbon dioxide in water under various conditions as an equilibrium process and explain in terms of Le Chatlier's principle. Yeah, HSC Online has it, but I'm not quite getting their explanation. They just give four equilibrium reactions relating to the creation of...

    Uh oh, chem assessment?

    No, most of the retarded posts are like 'omg what uai can i get with my subjects' etc. I'm asking how well do I need to do in future assessments + HSC exams to get mid band-5 in Chemistry?

    Uh oh, chem assessment?

    My first term chem assessment (not half-yearlies) was weighted as 25% of my assessment mark. I scored 65% in the test. Now, I know I fucked up, and my rank is below average. However, I go to a school which is ranked ~60th. I don't know if this helps. I'd like to know how well I need to do in...

    Reverse Differentiating e

    Ah, so stationary point means y' = 0 and x = 0? Edit; the answer is 3e^2x - 6x.

    Reverse Differentiating e

    y' = 6e^(2x) + c I know the gradient is zero, so; 0 = 6e^(2x) + c I don't know what x or c is.. Stationary point at (0,3) means [y' = 0] and the curve passes through [0,3]. Am I missing something?
  20. Finx

    Reverse Differentiating e

    Find the equation of the curve that has f''(x) = 12e^(2x) and a stationary point at (0,3). If I remember correctly, stationary points are where the gradient = 0. y'' = 12e^(2x) y' = 6e^2x + c Is this right so far? I'm just stuck on where to go next. Thanks in advance!
