I need your help /sci/ my wife is trying to do chemistry and is banging her head against some of these equations and is now in the bathroom in tears because she cannot work it out. I was hoping some of you could help me find the answers. I'm not a smart guy and the work she is doing even though it's just Chem 101 is way over my head so any help you can offer would be greatly appriciated. I will post the question followed by the pages referenced in the question. I need the two empty spaces and i also think the condensed formula for benzaldehyde is wrong.

chemistry is easy
I mean i am serious when i say i have no clue what this stuff means.
>>95706
Maybe for you hell I'm just training to be an emt, so i'm on the lower end of the spectrum here.

>my wife is trying to do chemistry
>my wife
I remember when I was in AP Chem, Chad. Also, just fugging google it, literal baby shit.
And that's the final page

Yes because i would obviously come here as my first option, don't you think I've tried that?
I feel for you OP, im in a similar situation. My girlfriend is in chem 101 as well and she is struggling so much. I'm unable to really help her because I took honors chem in high school, but then did physics route in college. It sucks seeing her so frustrated over the class.
I've always hated chem in general. Such a worthless class.

I just feel so helpless, like if you would like me to name all your muscle groups or anything really with the body it's fine but chemistry ... I just can't wrap my hear around it.

>see pages 109-110
Tell her she's a retard

> chem is worthless
> studied physics
kek
Is thist thinly veiled cuck thread?
>>95705
Perhaps she's not familiar with the basics of chemistry, when I was bad at Calculus it was because I sucked at pre-calculus and algebra, then I focused on the basics and the rest was as easy as assigning a value to a variable.
>>95714
Care to elaborate? Even I've read it and it's not clear
>>95717
She has never taken Chem before so this is literally throwing her in
>>95705
ALDEHYDES CAN BE OXIDIZED TO CARBOXYLIC ACIDS
BENZOIC ACID C7H6O2
she can probably figure out cyclohexanone by herself
>Wanting someone to do your homework for you
Fuck off. If your bitch can't handle a class as simple as Gen Chem then let her flunk.
You're gonna have to post the instructions. The tests, reagents, and dyes are what we need to know about to help. Otherwise, what tou're asking is just a simple logic puzzle
>>95720
That's the formula not the condensed structural formula
>>95723
C6H5COOH

Typical retard physics major
Christ you people are beyond insufferable

>being this pretentious
haha just kill yourself faggot

>Chemistry is worthless
Physics 101 is literally babyshit.
