we did something in chemistry for that when I took that class.  That was fun :)

BTW:  TOUCHDOWN YANKEES!!! :P :D :)

Did you satisfy your oral fixation?
My physics class in HS made iced cream (using liquid-nitrogen) a gallon at a time
(just finish my Java midterm, and has food on the mind)

well its the holiday celebrating the number mole, which was first implement by Avogadro

... closer than Lanair :)


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Saladin on October 29, 2005, 03:28:46 PM
closer? i'm there! :D  mole is the number 6.02 x 10 to the 23rd power, which is used to measure molecules in high quantities


Title: Mole Day
Post by: mole on October 29, 2005, 04:04:16 PM
no it isnt, its the number of hydrogen molecules that make a mass of 1g

now you see why i'm getting a C in Chem  LOL

im currently on a D in chem


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Saladin on November 04, 2005, 02:27:23 AM
well after the chem test i just had, i'm probably going down to a D as well <_<  


Title: Mole Day
Post by: matt_the_shark on November 04, 2005, 02:28:39 AM
I never did well in chemistry, but it was only because I was a little lazy in the class, got high grades on tests...but no homework :P


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Lord Lanair on November 04, 2005, 02:36:24 AM
I keep getting (relativly) good grades in chem... then again, the last test I got a 53/125, which is a solid "B."  LOL

Avogadro's Number is 6.022 x 10^23, and for the case of Hydrogen, 1 mol of atoms is approx. 1g.   ;)  


Title: Mole Day
Post by: matt_the_shark on November 04, 2005, 02:38:03 AM
good for you, lanair :D


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Saladin on November 04, 2005, 02:46:38 AM
I know all that but the conversions and all killed me


Title: Mole Day
Post by: matt_the_shark on November 04, 2005, 02:57:33 AM
I hate all the work you have to show for conversions, it's annoying :hmmm:


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Saladin on November 04, 2005, 03:07:11 AM
tell me about it, and the sheer number of convesion there are and that if you screw one part up, its all done :hmmm:  


Title: Mole Day

I've never taken chem :mellow: and I may never have to :)

:| 42.4% is a "solid B"???
Thats barely scraping a D over here. :/
And the politicians and media moan about how easy it is to get high grades!


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Saladin on November 04, 2005, 07:20:05 PM
he's being himself, its an F over here
 


Title: Mole Day
Post by: smi256 on November 04, 2005, 07:58:09 PM
total "F" dude ;)
The grade scale I normally see is:
A: 90-100  //you understand, good, lets move on
B: 80-  89  //you get it
C: 70-  79  //this is more work then you thought, allocate more time to this
D: 60-  69  //you aren't trying or this is so not your forte
F:   0-  59  //something is very wrong here

Don't forget about being graded on a curve :rolleyes:  


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Saladin on November 04, 2005, 09:44:37 PM
curve's are awesome, they really get you to work hard


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Guest:mole on November 07, 2005, 03:38:33 PM
we get a fail for anything less than 40% really


Title: Mole Day
Post by: underruler on November 08, 2005, 07:35:46 AM
I love the AP curve.


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Lord Lanair on November 10, 2005, 04:55:32 AM
Well, in chem, the grading system is different for each assignment (i.e. a 40% can be an A or D, depending on which test you're talking about).  In all my other classes, we do use a flat system.  ;)

Hehe, the AP curve is fun, until you take something like Statistics.   <_<  


Title: Mole Day
Post by: underruler on November 10, 2005, 09:02:07 AM
I took college statistics and I got an A without really doing anything.  Easy peasy y0.


Title: Mole Day
Post by: Lord Lanair on November 10, 2005, 09:43:02 PM
Yeah, the class is easy, but it's really hard to do well on the AP test for some reason.  <_<  


Title: Mole Day
Post by: smi256 on November 10, 2005, 11:54:58 PM
They wouldn't let me that stats...
They said I hadn't done Alg2 yet...
I had already taken and passed Multivariable calculus...
 :(

wait you didn't do Algebra 2? :huh:

Not in collage...
I did it back in IHS
