AI Thread Summary
In a senior Chemistry scientific write-up, the typical order of sections includes Abstract, Introduction, Hypothesis, Method/Materials, Results, Discussion, and Conclusion. However, there is some variation depending on educational level and instructor preferences. In college-level organic chemistry lab reports, for example, the hypothesis is often integrated into the Introduction rather than being a separate section. Therefore, it's essential to confirm specific requirements with the teacher, as formats can differ significantly across educational contexts.

In a senior (yr 11) Chemistry scientific write up is this the Order in which the major topics appear?:
- Abstract
- Introduction
- Hypothesis
- Method / Materials
- Results
- Discussion
- Conclusion

The main point I'm not sure about is wether the hypothesis comes before the indroduction. If someone could just confirm this it'd be much apreciated.

Thanks.

Depends on your teacher. I'm a sophomore in college and our outlines for o. chem lab reports is-

Abstract
Intro
Procedure
Results
Discussion
Conclusion
References

We don't have a specified hypothesis section. That's typically incorporated in the introduction.
 

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...

Thread 'Why does having 8 valence electrons make an element inert?'

I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
