The Daily Chemistry Report

Pchem today was manageable. Ensembles and microstates suddenly dropped out from the class (but they will make a return in the near future). Now we're doing Real Gases. Pretty simple stuff actually, mostly covered in CM1131. Anyway I think the prof is still in revision mode. That's good!

Inorganic was boring as usual, but I did learn one new thing. Apparently, when you remove electrons from transition metals, the remaining electron in the s-orbital drops down to the d-orbitals. Experimentally proven, the prof said. Ok...
