    Which normal kidney functions should not be replaced by a dialysis machine?

    Which normal kidney functions should not be replaced by a dialysis machine? I've got one answer...but not enough. I don't even know if this is right, but I said blood pressure - patients with heart problems. Can anyone help?

    Why do girls struggle in science classes while boys excel?

    Yeah...agreed. That I know...cause in my English class, the girls are a lot better at writing essays, paraphrasing Shakespeare, talking about life experiences, etc. But in my Physics, Chem, and even Bio class, it's not like that! :-S

    Why do girls struggle in science classes while boys excel?

    UGH...Can't stand it ANYMORE! Hi everyone, Maybe this thread I'm about to post is not about Science, but it was the PF Lounge: General Discussion was the only proper category that I can stick this thread in. Okay, here goes the problem. I'm not being a racist, or stereotypical...

    Exploring Physics: Unveiling the Bohr Model

    So let me get something else straight... I forgot that in Physics 20 I learned something about strong and weak nuclear forces. So is it the strong nuclear force that holds those electrons in orbit so that they don't go crashing into the nucleus?

    Calculate Heat of Formation for SO3 Gas using Hess' Law - Step by Step Guide"

    So is this right? I'm going to multiply the second equation by 8... S8(s) + 8O2(g) --> 8SO2(g) + 2378.4 kJ 8SO2(g) + 4O2(g) --> 8SO3(g) + 792 kJ Balanced equation (well adding the both of them together): S8(s) + 12O2(g) --> 8SO3(g)...

    Calculate Heat of Formation for SO3 Gas using Hess' Law - Step by Step Guide"

    Compute the heat for formation of one mole of SO3 gas from the following data: Sorry I don't know how to do subscripts... S8(s) + 8O2(g) --> 8SO2(g) + 2378.4 kJ SO2(g) + 1/2O2(g) --> SO3(g) + 99.0 kJ I don't have a clue where to start...

    Exploring Physics: Unveiling the Bohr Model

    So let me get this straight...the reason why the electrons (well atoms) would NOT crash into the nucleus when they emit EMR is because most atoms are very stable. (Just remembering something about atoms from Chemistry.)

    How can I linearize the equation for q/m in terms of V?

    I was just wondering if I did everything right... That's all...cause it seemed complicated at first...

    Exploring Physics: Unveiling the Bohr Model

    Okay, thanks! Oh, I get what you're saying about the electrons now. P.S. I don't even know how I came up with the idea of electrons crashing into the nucleus when they emit EMR. It just sort of came to mind one day as I was thinking about it becaue of the great amount of energy electrons...

    How can I linearize the equation for q/m in terms of V?

    Curve STRAIGHTENING...ARGH! Yes, curve straightening...every high school student's favorite thing... :confused: So in my Physics class, our teacher did a demo with the CRT (cathode ray tube) and then he assigned us with the lab exercise. Here are the components of what I'm supposed to...

    What Should I Do After My First Year of Studying Sciences?

    Thanks all of you! I was just showing my Mom the other day about this thread that I've posted, and she finally gave in. Cause she said that if she forces me to do something I don't like doing, then I won't be successful because I'm not even interested in the field. BTW, the only one problem...

    Exploring Physics: Unveiling the Bohr Model

    This thread is sure getting interesting...but I'm really confused now. Cause one of you says one thing, the other opposes it and says something else... I understand what all of you are saying...honestly. Like, I might still be in High School, but I'm known (from my parents) that I always...

    Exploring Physics: Unveiling the Bohr Model

    Oops...yeah I just realized that I did get it mixed up with the Rutherford "planetary model". I had a lack of sleep last night...up late doing Chem (The energy unit is confusing). I'm more awake now that I just read about Rutherford's "planetary model". *Yawns* and is dying to go back to...

    What Should I Do After My First Year of Studying Sciences?

    Well, I live in Canada in the province of Alberta in a city called Edmonton. Close to where I live is a university called University of Alberta, and it's one of the best universities. The Admission grades are really high. Usually 70 or 78% is what you need to have, but only 0.2% of the people...
