I've Got Gas...

Gas laws that is.

Do you remember...

PV=nRT?
Pressure x Volume= number moles (R constant 0.08206L/mol*K) (Temperature in Kelvin)

Neither did I.

(ok maybe I did, I just hate sounding like a know-it-all.)

Christina is making up some chemistry worksheets so the teacher will raise her grade from a C+ to a B (she needs B's or better to get a specific scholarship). Christina has had all year to complete her chemistry worksheets but here we are-4 days before the school year ends- working on the chemistry worksheets (I can't really blame her, I wait until the last minute too).

Imagine a 17-year old, drama queen using her high-pitched "helpless" voice:

"Malaina!!!!! Help me!!"

Often times "help me!" is Christina-speak for "Do my homework for me, I don't really care about learning this stuff." I didn't really care about learning this stuff when I was in high school or when I was a freshman taking Chem 105 at BYU.

I guess I'm glad I know it now, it helps with all the biology stuff.
