i have a european history ap exam in two days, and a chemistry one next week

neither one have i studied for, save a few practice tests during class and after class

and yeah, electrochemistry is super fun! galvanic cells are even more fun too!

Isn't it fun? I love it. We finished up with nuclear chemistry today, that was fun too.

the only nuclear chemistry we get in ap chemistry is balancing nuclear equations, just count up the neutrons and protons

do you guys do anything more interesting, since it's college level?

Oh man. I loves me some chem and physics.

Well, there isn't too much we do in regards to equations (except half-life), but we go over the different types of decay, their effects, etc. We also talked about nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons and how they work. I can look in my notes later and see what else we went over, this is just off the top of my head. Our professor also stressed that while alpha particles don't have a lot of penetrating power, they will royally mess you up if they get inside you (cancer everywhere).

Funny story about that last part, actually. Apparently he worked in a lab with plutonium, and on his (and several other scientists) first day on the job they assured them that if they came into contact with the element (cuts, etc.) then they have a physician in the next room ready to amputate. Luckily they never had an incident like that, but still pretty crazy.

oh yeah, we talked about some of that too. but yeah, shit does get messed up if anything radioactive gets inside you.

In my chemistry final we're allowed to have a one-page "cheat sheet," which I've been working on today. Once I'm out of classes and whatnot I can upload it for those of you who have chemistry as well. Not for cheating purposes of course, but it should be a good review of equations for those that need it.

My goodness that sounds awesome

Oh oh oh! I wanna look at the cheat sheet!

I'll post it next Tuesday once all our exams are over.

Okay.

I am way to excited to look at someone's chemistry notes.
Guys, I think there's something wrong with me.

ap chemistry test next week!

but i've been acing the previous practice ones so it's all good
