Can you use chat?
If you can go there and I will talk you through the problems - it will be easier than posting as I will (hopefully) be able to determine where youa re getting hung up.

HI: For sure you have to have your equivalents memorized, that was the hardest part for me. :)
If you cannot chat just post some examples and we will see what you are having trouble with.
let me know what time you can chat and I will be on line.. sometimes I go on and off. Lets see I can come on line at 12noon today ..

- Post your problem here --- I will see if I can get a response back to you.
- Also, go to bookstore and look at the Schaum's Outline/Text for Chemistry (look in study guide section). They have good examples of how to do conversions. The hardest part is setting up the equation.
- After you have done a dozen or so examples/problems -- you'll know how to set up the equations in your head. It will be the actual conversion amounts that you'll need to memorize. Ie: 1lb = 16 ounces ...stuff like that.
Gotta run,
