what are you guys doing atm?
one more practice paper? looking over notes?

Yes, doing one more practice paper, then notes revision
Then gonna end the night with a game or two :P
Then i've got the train and tomorrow to study


Are there any tables around showing what factors increase/decrease titration values/what-not with explanations?
Like "It wasn't filtered properly so it should be heavier than expected, means this is less/more,etc"

Hahaha, last minute read over my notes... (would be shocking if I'm still learning new things! D= ) Pretty tired from a last day of cramming so off to have an early night soon. =) Have fun tomorrow.

would VCAA ever ask us predict how downfield a chemical shift is judging from a structure?
does it work like this: the closer the H or C atom is to an electronegative atom like O, the more downfield it is?

Hmm... this would be about how much deshielding/shielding there is. According to my school, we don't need to know about it.... but would be helpful to understand that the closer it is to a functional group such as COOH, the more downfield that H atom will be. If I'm wrong, please correct me.

lol aite, thanks, deleted my other post. Peow >:!.


Thought, I was being a retard for asking it haha. Felt self conscious, but I shall be studying an extra 2 hours ....  School bright and early :)
About Philosophy

When I see a youth thus engaged,—the study appears to me to be in character, and becoming a man of liberal education, and him who neglects philosophy I regard as an inferior man, who will never aspire to anything great or noble. But if I see him continuing the study in later life, and not leaving off, I should like to beat him - Callicle

Yep the closer a H or C is to an electronegative atom the more it will be shifted downfield.

Just to clarify, When esterification occurs which loses the OH group. Alcohol or Acid? I assume same thing goes for glycerol and fatty acids.

The carboxyl group loses the OH which is the acid.
Actually im not too sure :P

For those stupid like me:

Came across on question telling me to give the semi structural formula of the triglyceride shown... how do we do that? As far as I know, I can only give the semi structural formula of glycerol... haha, but not both of them combined... =|
