Do you remember the time when you weren't a PhD student?
>lots of free time

>shitposting about barnett on /sci/
As an undergrad I was a drug addict. Can't do that anymore. I still think about it every day.
>>7802785
I thought drugs were only okay in grad school. A little bit of crystal meth but just don't bring it to class?
i thought PhD students just wrote shit like once a week. what's the big deal?
How should I make use of the Feynmann Lectures?
I plan on making detailed notes on it, but I dont know if that will really give me the best learning experience. This is my first extracurricular textbook and i am unsure about how to assimilate this type of resource.
learn maths instead... those are glorified popsci books
Read them.
>>7802510
Great for insight. Also get a book with some exercises to help it sink in.
What is time anon?

Meaning break at least one C-C bond?
Oxidize the fuck out of the doubly benzylic carbon.
Of course this is likely to affect the amino groups too.

I think I did the right thing rejecting them. I don't want sluts disturbing me when I'm coding my simulations.

Anyone got the book, or I should ask /lit/ ?
I can't find it anywhere except some torrent w/o any seeders and i'm too europoor to buy it from amazon.

Have a nice time.

Hey guys, chemistry noob here. Can you help me with the questions in pic related and explain the answers to me, give me the basic idea of common ion effect on solubility?
Am I right for the first question?: The concentration of Pb2+ goes up, Cl- goes down and equilibrium shifts to the reactants and lowers the solubility.
>>7804885
Yes, you are correct in your reasoning.
Ions which do not participate in the reaction (e.g. any of the other ones except Cl- in NaCl) do not affect the equilibrium.
>>7804891
But am I correct to assume that adding H2O will increase solubility? Also what happens to the solubility when adding compounds that don't share a common ion?
>>7804897
Since it's aqueous, and solubility product is determined by molarity, not absolute mole content, yes, adding more H2O will increase the amount of Pb2+ in the solution, but the concentration itself will not increase. Adding compounds that do not share a common ion will not affect concentration either, as the reaction quotient will not change.
what is the difference between a total vs partial derivative in common english?
>>7804729
A partial derivative in common english is the same as subliminal parsonship in aristocratic english, whereas a total is the same as a motel.
A partial derivative is a derivative of a multivariable equation where all variables except one are treated as constants.
>>7804729
for example
[math]\dfrac{d}{dx}(xy) = y + x\dfrac{dy}{dx}[/math]
[math]\dfrac{\partial}{\partial x}(xy) = y[/math]
the partial derivative (wrt x) considered all non-x variables (in this case, y) as constant, so as you can see we essentially fixed y such that [math]dy/dx=0[/math].
Was this a good show for science and critical thinking?

Science? No. Critical thinking? Yes.

They aren't a bad resource for education though. They made good points in every single episode.
Does abstaining infleunce your attractiveness? There are many members of the nofap community who seem to overplay the benefits of not masturbating by saying that it gave them a girlfriend. Many even seem to try to explain this with biology: ".The increased testosterone causes your body to give off certain non-verbal cues that women pick up on (deeper voice, clearer skin, etc.)" However, this sounds extrmely like pseudoscience. Are there any biologists here who could tell me to what extent nofap influences your attractiveness?
It doesn't increase your testosterone and it doesn't increase your attractiveness either. There are no medical benefits to abstaining completely, and in fact there is evidence that it increases your chance for prostate cancer later in life. Furthermore, there is ZERO medical difference between ejaculation by masturbation and ejaculation when having sex. "Nofap" is utter nonsense.
That said, porn addiction is a real thing. And if you're fapping many times a day, then that is a problem. If a porn addict gives it up, he won't become more "attractive," but he will, perhaps, actually talk to girls...

Well /sci/, I just found out today from the chair of my department that I scored in the 94% in the ETS major field test for chemistry. Is that really a big accomplishment or nothing?

Does pic related really exist?
If so please tell me its properties and name!

I need some help, /sci/.
Does this make any sense to you?
>>7802178
Which part are you confused about? After reading, it's perfectly understandable with a little bit of topology and just knowing what math symbols mean.
>>7802178
This is a meme dude, you are being trolled new friend.
>>7802178
Stopped reading at "Mario bump operator"...
Mechanical, Chemical, Environmental, or Electrical?
depends what you like.
be careful to find a job after studies. look for stats of employment ratio / wages in your country. i did chemical eng. would not have chosen it, if i had the choice now ( because of oil crisis)
Looks like math is all about memorization after all...

Halp /sci/. I constantly need some form of entertainment in the background while studying. I recently started listening to podcasts while studying and it slows down my progress greatly. Am I addicted? Is there some form of entertainment I can listen to in the background that won't distract me too much?
Ambient music is the best. ıt gets you in the mood, it's not distracting, it's perfect.
