@enlargedthroat and @Bendwhat?_over I have questions abt the excel yr 11 chem vs actual school work

I have my schools chem textbook and i've been looking through yt science ready too. Sometimes in the excel they are going through topics in a bit more depth...i'm currently doing molecular and empircal stuff under the topic percentage composition, however in my school textbook there is barely a few pages on it and science ready doesn't talk abt it in that vid. Should I go through it or not?

nvm i think i just accidentally went into mod 2 instead T-T

Usually finding videos on the specific topic helps for me when textbooks or other resources don't provide sufficient information.

Thanks in advance

funnily enough, found this online:

it's not exactly what you were asking but kinda funny

 

[pl4smaa21]

waaaww what luck! tysm

 

[pl4smaa21]

i think i found a quicker way idk if the logic is right tho what i did was this:
1st : divide by 3^x
2nd: take log base 2/3 of both sides

i think that works it seems to make sense

gl what are u gonna do just curious

 

[Bendwhat?_over]

Is there textbooks for yr 11 engineering studies or is the senior course the same thing

I'm pretty sure the prelim and hsc engineering studies courses are different u can look at the syllabus here: (https://educationstandards.nsw.edu....013+Engineering+Studies.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CVID=)

And there aren't any like mainstream textbooks like by cambridge or pearson from what I know of but there is this which seems promising: (https://www.fivesenseseducation.com.au/engineering-studies-definitive-guide-vol-1-9780980400373)

EDIT: Maybe this thread can help you better (https://boredofstudies.org/threads/which-textbook-do-u-use-for-engineering-studies.176948/)

Much obliged

chem. BUT OMG THE EXCEL BOOK IS PISSING ME OFF
like i get the content and when i got to answer the questions, they're in a language i don't understand T-T
atleast i got the multiple choice right

The pearson is pretty good, but perhaps the questions it gives are optimistic; much easier than it would be in an actual test.

Anyhow I don't think one should be practicing for tests already - just learning the content ahead.

what module are you up to?

 

[Shavi Masee]

what module are you up to?

the first few topics of mod 1

 

[pl4smaa21]

the first few topics of mod 1

ok have you gotten up to the schrodinger model of the atom like the orbitals?
things get a bit hectic there

 

[Shavi Masee]

um no... i accidentally kipped a few topics though and then went onto percentage formula and empirical stuff in mod 2

ah okay I actually remember last year my sci teach gave me this module 2 printed workbook thing for chem as per my request (cuz i didn't have resources) and I did the whole thing I kinda forgot a bit but I remember finishing all problems with mistakes of course but most of the basic ones I could do. Have you done limiting reagent probs?

bro like no...like just that tinsy bit of empirical stuf

as you can tell my distracting habits haven't gotten me very far.

But i love how ur taking the initiative and asking ur teacher for stuff!!1
