Mole and Review Challenge (Eighteen)

C-HO and I are currently playing Mole and Review Challenge. Haha, so far we've gotten two wrong...because we didn't format the answer correctly (by doing x instead of * and by rounding 1.544 to 1.54 instead of 1.5 x_x) Yay, I just got a question right. I am winning by 1000 points. I thought we were supposed to round to 3 sig figs (significant figures).

For future reference, calcium phosphate has the formula Ca3(PO4)2. Catherine got that wrong. :P As we are playing this educational review game (MUST DO GREAT ON THE FINAL!), I am browsing people's chemistry and private blogs.

Our homework is the remainder of the pink packet.
Marcia is searching up our names on google. LOL.

It's not ichiban ga suki desu, it's ga ichiban suki desu. Ha ha ha. Inside jokes. Reference to Japanese class, etc.

Gotta go.

MOLE LAB! (week 17)

Yesterday, we did a lab in class calculating the molar mass of C6H10O5 (starch) and the number of grams per mole of that molecule. We then weighed it out using hole punches...it was about 6.92. Har har. We won the competition because everyone was extremely far off (someone had 18 x_x). 0.3 off, dang. Mr. Olson also spread around hole punches all over the floor. I feel sorry for the person who has to clean that up. The hole punches somehow managed to spread around the whole school. Krystina says she saw some as far away as Taylor and Magnolia. LOL. There were some in my backpack when I got home too. I wonder how long it took Olson to attain all of those holepunches.

A mole is 6.02 x 10^23...
I might have mentioned that already.
My teacher and his friend wrote and performed this catchy song about moles.

I almost aced the molecule test. 94%.

Studying for the Test

Hullo, I am taking a break from ...studying...and blogging in chemistry class. LOL, Japanese was HILARIOUS. Sensei finally played our video about shopping for socks for my boyfriend. I heavily flirt with my "boyfriend", played by Krystina, throughout the entire video until "he" asks me to marry "him", and I reject him. The scene is quite dramatic (love of my life by queen...love of my life, can't you see? please bring it back, don't take it away from me because you don't know what you mean to me) Then we start singing and dancing to 世界に一つだけの花 (sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana) by SMAP. LOL. It's a gorgeous video, indeed. yay gooo catherine! get those pets into line!

I memorized my alkanes! Methane, ethane, propane, butane, pentane, etc.

Polarity and The Past Week

Oh blah, just got my internet back.
OH BLAH I DIDN'T DO MY LOGS although I really should. but I'm too lazy and feel like a rebel right muhahaa plus I am just turning in my essay that was due weeks ago. Well, I WANNA DO PE SO BADLY but being the ridiculous arse that I am, I cannot and I look like a 'tard sitting there and now I walk like both legs are injured? but they're not! ohwtf FML IDK what to doooo wahaaha ):

SO IN CHEMISTRY, we talked about polar bears and penguins (aka the positive and negative poles). We conducted a lab in which we used a charged wand to see if the stream of a molecule, such as water, would be deflected to the pole. If they were, it indicted a polar charged molecule. Water is an extremely polar molecule so it was really attracted to the pole. We also tested kerosene (isn't that a lighter fluid?) and it was a nice blue color. Not a visibly polar molecule though.
