lol, and also when you hear the word mole, in reference to the little furry creatures, you think Avogadro's constant!

Yes, it is quite full of nerds. Lol.

whens did this occur??
also plz teach me mathematics extension 1
id like to pass...so i dont fail all my tests since the prelim course started
it wont count of course but i'd like to have some dignity :/

It happened at a farewell party I went to for an exchange student about a week ago.
What maths ext don't you get?

hmms considering i got 17/84 last time

theres an asian guy in my chemistry class named chen, i call him Chen hydroxide, I even gave him an element and polyatomic ion, ChO2 and wrote up lewins dot forumlae
i dont understand him too well but i think he thinks im strange :uhhuh:

 

[jennylim]

man...

i actually do try to read the backs of shampoo, moisturisers and makeup to identify the IUPAC compounds, esters, various pigments and "lakes" in my blush and lipstick.

um. and at a party i began rattling on about ethanol as a fuel (mind u, i had a fair bit of ethanol in me at the time)...

*hangs head in shame*

nah, you just wish you could form hydrogen bonds with him

 

[wanton-wonton]

You know you are a chemistry nerd when you err.....like chemistry.

That was so bad....

 

[Casmira]

nah, you just wish you could form hydrogen bonds with him

I contain no strong electronegative elements
*runs off crying*

 

[nit]

this is getting nerdier and nerdier

Having Cameron in my av is making me feel 10³ times more intelligent. Look at her, she's just screaming "I'm full of brains!".

I'd love her to help me with my chemistry study

I know, isn't she hawt? (in an intellectual way)

I think I'll bring her back.

 

[Emma-Jayde]

lol. She's gorgeous!

-When you refuse to open your soft drink before it's cold because you know why it will go flat faster, and you randomly explain this concept and the reactions that take place to others when they're opening bottles of drink.

anyways 3 hrs is such a long time for chem test but anyways i was sick so lucky i got 3 hrs otherwise id been screwed
hmms i spent 1/3 of the test sleeping

But no one does that.

you know you're a chem nerd when you enjoy this thread

actually someone had shaken my bottle of coke, so i left it and figured that the high pressure would favour CO2(aq) and I was right!! it was nice and fizzy, i sat on the bottle too also increase pressure

THANKYOU ACIDIC ENVIRONMENT!!

 

[Emma-Jayde]

But no one does that.

Evidently some of us who enjoy fizzy soft drinks do.

I do that! When I open a bottle of fizzy drink I always think of the carbon dioxide equilibrium.

Hi Emma!!

Err..you didn't need The Acidic Environment to know that. It's common sense that when you shake a bottle of coke and open it, it will fizz more than usual.

Yeah, but the CO₂ equilibrium and the factors affecting it aren't.
