Question on quantitative analysis preparation

AI Thread Summary
Quantitative analysis courses often build on foundational concepts from general chemistry, particularly stoichiometry and equilibrium, including pH calculations. A solid understanding of these topics is crucial for success in the course. Additionally, instrumental methods may require more advanced knowledge and skills. Reviewing these key areas will help prepare for the upcoming course. Focus on reinforcing your grasp of these fundamental concepts to ensure a smooth transition into quantitative analysis.

I am supposed to take a quant analysis course this summer but it has been awhile since I took chem I & II. How much of the general chem courses carry over and what should I focus on as I attempt to review prior to this course? Thanks!

It may depend on the course. Classic methods are based on stoichiometry and equilibrium (like pH calculation), instrumental methods will need more.

Thread 'Confusion regarding a chemical kinetics problem'

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
