You don't say?

Would this be right then? 6) 2NaOH(aq) + H2SO4 = Na2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) n(NaOH) = m/M = 13.5/40 = 0.3375mol n(H2SO4) = n(NaOH) * 0.5 = 0.16875 mol n(H2SO4) = x L * 0.250molL^-1 0.16875/0.250 = x = 0.675L 0.675L of sulfuric acid is needed. 7) AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) = AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)...

^ I guess the above is enough for non-science definitions. Can we get some real science definitions going? :D

Why do oranges and lemons smell different? You can investigate the chirality and explain mirror molecules. You can extract limonene from the orange via steam distillation and layer it over the lemon and show why they now smell the same.

Can you really do two things at once or is it an illusion? There have been many contradictory opinions on this question, even from sources that are usually labelled as "trustworthy" and "reliable". A Google search does not give the sort of answers I am looking for. Does anybody have their own...

What are people's favourite YouTube channels for Science education (Chemistry, physics, biology, psychology etc)? Feel free to list more than one.

It's simply a distraction which holds growing potential to become an addiction.

When the word "light" is mentioned what comes into your mind? When the word "light" is mentioned what comes into your mind? Not only the basic definition, list everything you can think of. No need to explain. The purpose behind this is I'm creating a massive mind map and want to make sure I...

Ok...so what's wrong with what I've done.

Here is a photo to clear any confusion (if any). If you could please explain question [8] too, it'll be great. Thanks.

Hey guys, I have two stoichiometry questions to do with solvents. Both of them are very simple and I am unable to complete them at the moment because of some silly error in my method, I am sure. Can you please explain the method and how to do the question in some detail? I really appreciate...

In addition to what CAF said, there is a website (www.coursera.org) that offers free courses in any discipline (maths, science, humanities etc) run by many world class universities (Stanford, Penn, Duke). Sign up only takes a few minutes and at the completion of the course you get a certificate...
