Yes, but my teacher is saying the reactant side has more nuclear binding energy than the product side does, and I'm saying that the product side has more nuclear binding energy.
Nuclear binding energy is the result of the mass defect when individual nucleons are combined together, so when...
Hello. My teacher and I have had this very intense debate for quite some time now and we need your opinion on this issue. This question is, where does the energy released in a nuclear fission reaction come from? (Please use the terms "nuclear binding energy" and "mass defect")
My take on this...
Hello,
I was wondering if there is a systematic procedure to follow when naming complex organic molecules containing ethers and esters. By "complex" I mean organic molecules that contain multiple ether/ester groups and possibly within multiple different branches of the molecule.

When you expand this, you get x^3-x. I attached the graph below.
This is what I'm talking about-it's impossible for you to determine the actual degree, because one simply cannot distinguish the sign of derivatives beyond third order. In this case the third degree graph and the fifth degree...
Thank you everyone for your replies. But my teacher seems only to be interested in her own interpretation of the question. I did manage to persuade a few classmates but some of them maintain that the answer is 3. Guess I will have to make do with that...
Yeah, I tried to use my calculus knowledge to talk to my teacher about this (I even made a graph for the second derivative) but she just won't listen to me. She said that if I knew nothing about calculus, then I would understand the question the way she intended to.
I've been very upset...

The graph is attached. I remade the graph using google grapher, but the graph I got in the test have exactly the same x-intercepts (-2 of order...
wow I spent a week thinking about that question and you just helped me solve it in a few minutes.
So I get a+b=2 and -2a+b=-19.
solving, we get a=7 and b=-5. R(x)=7x-5.
So happy to see a simple solution, Thank you!
Homework Statement
When a polynomial is divided by (x+2), the remainder is -19. When the same polynomial is divided by (x-1), the remainder is 2. Determine the remainder when the polynomial is divided by (x-1)(x+2)Homework Equations
