Chemistry 2006/ 2007 Club***

Published

I am starting Chem II this semester. Anyone want to start a club??? :rolleyes:

I would like to join the group. I am taking Chem 101 this summer June 5, 2006. I took Chem last semester although my teacher would call on people for answers and I would be completly clueless because he just didn't teach well not to mention English was his second language so one had to really listen to hear what he was saying. I would ask quiestions in lab and he would be so rude as if he thought I was dumb or something. The main portion of Chem that I wasn't able to grasp was naming formulas which at our community we have to get a 90% on the Naming Formulas test to pass the course. Anyways, I hope to do well this semester coming up. I will need all the support!

i hate chemistry!!!!!!!!!! :angryfire :angryfire

this is my second attempt at chemistry, and i still dont understand it. could someone please tell me if there are any chemistry help websites, or offer me words of advice on how to pass chem? if so, i would greatly appreciate it. im stuck on unit analysis/unit factor problems.

a dermatology patient is treated with ulraviolet light having a wavelength of 375 nm. what is the wavelength expressed in centimeters?

so the answer in the back of the book is 0.0000375cm, but i dont know what was done to come up with the answer:uhoh3: :uhoh3: :uhoh3:

thanks

the chem hater

Remember 375 nm is the same as 375.0. The decimal point is crucial!! On the metric ruler, nm is 10^-9 and cm is 10^-2. SO in order to go from nm to cm you need to go 7 left. This means, move your decimal seven places left. so with 375.0 go seven left to .0000375 (see how you have a total of 7 numbers after moving the decimal point? the decimal point has now moved.

Use the metric ruler table! if your instructor hasn't provided you one, go to http://education.yahoo.com/reference/encyclopedia/entry/metricTABLE

we had to memorize this table so do your best at finding some mnemonic for it!

I am taking Fundamentals of Oraganic and Biochemistry (CHEM II) in the Fall. Scared to death because it's the last prerequisite for my program. I'm also taking Microbiology in the same semester. Somehow I think I'm going to be very busy.

Hey!! I'll join also... I have chem again next semester- certainly not looking forward to it as chem 1 was complete hell.

ah well- hola to everyone!

I dragged myself through Chem I last semester. I had it with nutrition, which I think was a mistake. Got burned out between the two classes. I should have taken an intro to chem class because the concepts were just too much to get my mind around. Also have a tendency towards ADD so I r-e-a-l-l-y had to concentrate and focus. I'm taking the intro class next semester to try to come at it from a different angle.
