Assalamu Alaikum,
Another set of quotes I have recorded from class and random encounters. They may be slightly misquoted.
—
(Note: pH=-log[H+], pOH=-log[OH-], pKa=-logKa, etc.)
Professor: If you need the function of your kitty cat at home, you do negative log cat (-logcat) to get pCat, which sounds like an exam to get into pharmacy school.” (PCAT)
—
Professor: You are expected to know this. You know what an expectation means. It means you will see it down the road in a ‘written exercise’.
(About tests)
—
Professor: (repeatedly) If an equation is named after someone, then it is important.
—
(Someone’s phone goes off)
Professor: KILL IT!
—
Faith786: I know what you were doing the night before the chemistry exam.
Professor: Really? What was I doing?
Faith786: You were out on the city roof tops, fighting crime and evil with your super mad chemistry powers.
Professor: (smiles) Maybe subconsciously.
—
Faith786: Adam, ask (Professor) why Sulfuric acid is a strong acid but it has two hydrogens.
(Professor overheard)
Professor: I don’t know.
Faith786: But you have to know. You know everything about chemistry. You invented chemistry!
Professor: I am a 100 years old, not 400!
—
Professor: (on the board) So here water is an acid and here water is a base. What does this tell you about water?
(Pause)
It is schizophrenic, no?
—
More later….
I love the quote that your professor might be subconsciously be going out before exams on roof tops fighting chemistry crime 😉 and that water is schizophrenic =P
at(GeniusAccordingToMyChemProf):
ROFL!!!!
LOL!
I love how he said you are a genius and he is mad. and he basically told me I need to learn how to think properly in chemistry.
I think you have a new and unique way of thinking, which, I believe, will benefit you in the long run.
