    importance of models - ligands

    Those points Kaye and angel mentioned are right. Just a note for angel: A model includes both physical models (such as molecular models) and theorie. Models are developed based on experiment and observation over time and a good model helps us to predict the behaviour of similar phenomena...

    Reactivity of ozone

    The bond order of ozone is not 1 nor is it 2. When you draw the Lewis structure of ozone, you will find that the central Oxygen atom is double-bonded to one and single-bonded to the other. Thus, two Lewis structure for ozone can be drawn (when you consider each Oxygen atom to be unique) and in...

    Sulfuric acid as oxidising agent

    Zinc is quite reactive and it will in fact react with dilute H2SO4 :) The major difference between the reaction of concentrated and dilute sulphuric is that dilute sulphuric acid contains a large amount of H2O. When you react it with a metal such as Iron, it will hydrolysis and form rust...

    Who knows little bit more about organic chemistry

    There really isn't much organic chemistry in the HSC syllabus in this topic: - Everythin about ethene (ethylene), a bit on ethanol and the relationship between them - Polymerisation and types of polymers - A basic understanding on the properties of organic compounds and relate those to...

    Naming CFCs

    I really do not think that electronegativity has anything to do with naming alkyl halides. I just had a look at my organic chemistry text book for alkyl halide naming, the following are simplified steps of what described in the book (Organic Chemistry 6e): 1. numbering starts at the end...

    Ummm.. thought this would be quite emberassing and not quite relevant.. but.. did anyone get a basic unknown for this week's lab and have valid results that I could use? (I will make full reference to the source.. I got my temporary demonstrator's permission to do that..) Thank you! I'm...

    lol, you were in that stick-snapping class!? Yes yes, he's still locking the door with a stick but people still manage to get in by pushing and shaking the door :p otherwise, from the back ;) there's this time when he's late.. last week i think, and one of us went to stick-lock the door but he...

    Problems burning cd's. (mp3 audio/video)

    then go to sleep and do it tomorrow :) but yeah, if you don't mind using some cds for experiment, burn the CDs your friend gave you on a new one and see if it works... If it does then it's either RealOne screwing things up or you don't have the right format (if you are not using RealOne)

    ummm.. hehee.. winston probably wouldn't like to see that comment there :p anyways, yeah, as winston has said, are you 100% sure that it does support mp3 playback? otherwise we are getting nowhere. Another thing is, if even your computer can't play it then there is definitely something wrong -...

    no offence nickw, but the first reply that came to my head is this: "you make one" I belive all professional game programmers have made quote - skanky - unquote games at some stage, just as all scientists who have won a Nobel Prize have done "dodgy" experiments and all virtuosos (musicians)...

    I know jack about programming and want to learn to make games

    Ummm.. Of course you start by learning to program! Pick a programming language and start learning the basics.. they say the majority of games are written in C++/C - which I'm not too surprised.. but they also say C++/C are harder to learn, in other words, I would describe it as less intuitive...
