    Taking 25mL from a 500mL solution that has been DILUTED from 50mL?!?!

    Hey guys Say you need to find the conc. of C6H8O7 in a drink. To do this, you dilute 50mL of the drink to 500mL then you take out 25mL of this diluted solution and titrate it standardised NaOH. You know the volume of NaOH used and you know the concentration so you can find moles of NaOH used...

    Projectile motion :(

    A horizontal drainpipe 6 m above sea level empties stormwater into the sea. If the water comes out horizontally and reaches the sea 2 m out from the pipe, find the initial velocity of the water, correct to 1 decimal place. Let g be 10 ms−2 and neglect air resistance. plss help :biggrin:

    Max Planck's and the UV catastrophe????

    Hey guys How exactly does Planck's hypothesis explain the experimental results/predicted curve on radiation vs intensity graph? I get that he proposed that the energy from the black body is a multiple of a minimum value (E = hf) but how does this explain the bell shape curve????

    Compound interest formula..?!

    quick question: how do we know when to use just the compound interest formula vs. when to use like A1 = ___, A2 = ____ etc therefore total = A1 + A2 + A3... etc (essentially you use the sum of the GP)

    Differentiate with respect to x

    Hey guys so the question is differentiate this: 3^x all over x I solved it using quotient rule and I got 3^x(x-1) all over x^2 but the answers 3^x(xIn3 - 1) all over x^2. How did the log come into place??? :confused::cook::pirate::shoot::cool2::angel: thx as always

    Is it risky to do 11 units for HSC?

    Subject selections are coming up soon! How risky is it to do 11 units? :S I want to do 12 units but I hear the workload is pretty stressful. And on top of that you need to be managing your time well - something I'm bad at.. What do you guys think?

    How do you differentiate this?

    y = x all over the sqrt(x^2 + 1) How do you know which is the best rule to use? Because you can use both product and quotient rule in this eg :S Thanks!! :D

    Proving this identity? Help pleaseeee :)

    (a + b + c)(ab + bc + ca) - abc = (a + b)(b + c)(c + a) Can anyone show the full working out? My algebra stinks. After working it out, I got up to here, now what? :( LHS = ab( a + b) + ac (a + c) + bc (b + c) + 2abc
