As the solo chemistry teacher at an international school, introducing the IB, this site literally "saved my skin" -never felt alone and a wonderful resource. Highly recommended

Quote of the day
Scientists are people of very dissimilar temperaments doing different things in different ways. Among scientists are collectors, classifiers and compulsive tidiers-up; many are explorers; some are artists and other artisans. There are poet-scientists and philosopher-scientists and even a few mystics.
Peter Brian Medawar, 1915-1987

- Hi Geoff, Thanks so much for your quick reply. That is a great stress reliever. Pete
- Ah, yes the total calculate enthalpy is 5! Thank you
- Hi Carol, I think the confusion arises because there are 5 bond enthalpies involved in the calculation of the enthalpy change and the value for the calculated enthalpy change works out to be 5 kJ mol-1. As you say to find the percentage uncertainty...
- Hi, I am looking at a question form Nov 2023 SL P2.Assuming a 0.1 % uncertainty for each bond enthalpy, determine the resultant percentage uncertainty of the calculated enthalpy change of the reaction.The answer says you must add the absolute...
