RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017

The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.

If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.

To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.

I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.

I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.

I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.

I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.

Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.

Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

Chemistry Crap.

Alright, I've missed the past 3 lessons on Chemistry and my teacher's don't ever give a flying fuck about that so I'm gonna need some serious help on these questions:


Question 1:
Ammonia is a gas that is very soluble in water.

a) From the following list, choose the most likely pH of an aqueous solution of ammonia:
2 , 5 , 7 , 9 , 13

b) What effect does aqueous ammonia have on red litmus paper?
c) Ammonia is released when ammonium sulfate is warmed with sodium hydroxide solution. Write a word equation for this reaction.
d) Ammoinia reacts with hydrochloric acid to form salt.
(i) Copy and complete the equation for the reaction:
________ + _________ --> NH4CL
(ii) Name the salt formed in this reaction.
e) Ammonia can be used to control the acidity of soil. Suggestion one problem in using ammonia to control soil acidity.


Question 2:
a) What effect does hydrochloric have on:
(i) Blue litmus paper?
(ii) Universal indicator paper?
b) Hydrochloric acid also reacts with magnesium.
(i) Write a word equation for this reaction.
(ii) Name the salt formed in this reaction.
c) Hydrochloric acid also reacts with Magnesium carbonate. Copy and complete the symbol equation for this reaction.
MgCO3 + __HCl --> MgCl2 + ______ + ______


d) When hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium sulfite, sulphur dioxide is produced. What type of oxide is sulphur dioxide?
e) Describe how the pH of the mixture changes as hydrochloric acid is added to a solution of potassium hydroxide until hydrochloric acid is in excess.


Owh Gawd, HELP!

RE: Chemistry Crap.

I'll reply about what I know, since I took chemistry last year and have forgotten some most of the stuff
a) should be 9 since wiki says that a 1.0M solution of ammonia has a pH of ~11
b) it turns it blue

e) in a plant growing environment, if the soil gets too acid use some sort of acidity sensor/indicators to release ammonia if the soil's too acid?
-----
a) i. turns it red
ii. turns it red or near-red

Wish I could help more, the rest is pure lolwut, sorry.
