... IS FULL OF CRAP!!!!!

chemical equations ..mass of reactants ... mass of products formulas ... molecular weights ...

.... absolutely SUCKS!!!!!!!!

but my ramen noodles were really yummy πŸ˜› Chicken favor ramen noodles excellent πŸ˜› πŸ˜› πŸ˜› yummy πŸ˜›

Reallyβ€”? Damn, I probably knew that but just forgot. They are soooo good through DewDrop πŸ˜„

And quick to fix too and they are available when you are on a budget.

I don't need alot of sodium .... but they are all gone now, I ate them all πŸ˜„

I want more .... *cringes*

I did like basic stoichiometery in high school and it sucked monkey balls !!!!!!!!! I didn't know what the fuck the teacher was talking about and how this is supposed to be interesting or . It was days like that i appreciated the simplicity of math much more !

HAHAHA! So you feel my pain! Dude! I can't stand this stuff but I have to know it. This crap is key to passing the class really lol. I have to work on it more today but I have to do other stuff 1st.

1. Put laundry away
2. Check on my current schedule
3. Call people lol (actually, I think maybe I should get my homework done first :/)
4. I really need to cook, I want to cook, I will cool today! lol
5. I have a quiz to prepare for.
6. More VBA to do

Yeah, I have alot to do lol. I was on early only because I was awaken really freaking early by music, so I decided to just stay up until about 8 ish and then I fell asleep at my desk lol.

I hate chemistry and anything to do with that area of science . The only classess i found that were interesting in science were physics and astronomy . I am pretty damn sure it was a virgo who popularized chemistry .

OMG! Same here, astronomy was awesome and cool -- loved it πŸ˜„ Especially when we actually did star observations. Physics is more common sense than chemistry.

Seriously, if I get a C in:

Chemistry I

Chemistry II

Organic Chem I

Organic Chem II

I would be happy with it. Now, I want to pull a B or higher in Biochemistry πŸ˜‰

I was pretty good at basic stoichiometry in high school because I had an awesome chemistry teacher.
I somehow managed to ace physics.

I cook my store-bought ramen a different way to make it sort of like chow mein except with no oil. I cook it this way because I only need to use a very little of the packaged flavoring so I can worry less about the amount of salt I take in. And heck it tastes even better. The only downside is...it disappears from the bowl in less than two minutes. 😒

Authentic ramen is even better.

Authentic ramen sounds yummy πŸ˜›

You were good at stoichiometryβ€”? Really ... maybe you can help me sometimes ^_^. I'll give you e-hugs if you do πŸ™‚

I don't think I can remember any anymore though. =/

Darn it! lol, thats ok ^_^.

Hey Cappysweetie I studied chemistry in University. I love Chemistry (especially organic) and I can help you if you need it. Just send me a p message and I will help you earn an A or B at least. πŸ˜‰

I am also good in math and physics.

Combustion reaction

CH4 (g) + O2 (g) -> H2O + CO2 (g)

Balance the equation

CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) -> 2H2O(g) + CO2 (g)

For every one mole of methane equals two moles of water
Hence the stiochiometry ratio for methan to water is 1 to 2 or 1/2 = 0.50 mole of methane for every mole of water vapor.

See, I screw up on balancing equations too 😒 I am trying, I would like to get a B or even an A but its going to take a work.

I'm so happy you are willing to help me πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ Only if you have time though, okay?

Hey Eric!

Where are ya? πŸ˜„

Dude, I have 45 minutes until Recitation -- I was going to as a few questions but I'll ask later if you aren't around ^_^.

My midterm is two days away ... good grief.

I'm here CappySweetie. If I'm not around just Pmessage me and I will reply promptly. :-). Remember I live in mountain time so there maybe a delay in reponse.

ERIC! πŸ˜„

I'm here! I couldn't log on last night like I wanted to 😒 😒 😒

I'm studying for my midterm right now, I will nap for a couple of hours then study more.

See, I'm having the most trouble with Molecular, Ionic, and Net Ionic Equations. Mostly being able to tell them apart for each other.

Hey Cappysweetie,

A molecular equation is simply an equation that contains no charges.

I.e. = NaCl(s) + KOH(s) + H2O (l)-> KCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) + H2O (l)

A ionic equation is when you show the ionic charge of reactant and product.

i.e. = Na(+) (aq) + Cl(-) (aq) + K(+) (aq) + OH(-) (aq) -> Na(+) (aq) + Cl(-) (aq) + K(+) (aq) + OH(-) (aq)

Notice it is the exact same equation accept that I applied charges to each element.

When you mix salt in water you no longer see the solid salt. Why? You don't see it because the compound salt, NaCl (s), has dissolved in the water. Is it still there? Yes it is because you can taste the salt in the water!

We call the free salt ions electrolytes. There are many kinds of salt compounds.

Because the ions ar emoving around freely in the water it is hard to know which one is reacting and which one is spectating. Inorder to determine this, we need to identity the specating ions and the participating ions. The result of this process is called the Net ionic equation.

It is the equation that contains only the participating ions and leaves out the spectatingions.

I.e. NaCl(s) + KOH(s) + LiCO3 (s) + H2O (l) -> KCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) + LiCO3 (s) + H2O (l)

is a molecular equation. Two species here do not change: H2O and LiCO3, hence they are the spectators. If we get rid of them, the Net Ionic equation is,

NaCl(s) + KOH(s) -> KCl (aq) + NaOH (aq)

YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 πŸ˜„ I got that right on the midterm then πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„

I thought so, but I wasn't for sure.

I think I probably screwed on the net ionic equation ...

Oh Sweety you had your test! Damn, some help I was then. I hope you get a good mark.

No its fine, no worries. It was mostly my fault. I gotta start taking my laptop with me again -- I did it in the summer! Before my old laptop died, it went everywhere with me.

I will discuss more chemistry with you tomorrow. I'm getting chills dude 😒 I don't feel good at all, I hope its just a cold because I have work, homework to do and a party to go to tomorrow.

Oh dear, I don't think anywhere can cover for me tomorrow at work, which sucks.
