Posting Temporarily Disabled : Comments Guide

"Unable to connect to the remote computer" This particular line appears every time I try to connect to the internet. So for the mean time, I would be posting things less often. At most, maybe 1 to 2 posts a week. Hopefully Ashmeer can take my place for the meant time, if you're free or bored la. XD

Comments/Inquiries Guide
I never posted this before. So expectedly, I never really know who is posting the comments up.
Knowing that, I think I better post a brief guide on how to comment. Sounds petty but I prefer the blog to be more organized.

How-to-comment:
1) Click the "n INQUIRIES" link at the bottom of any post. (n refers to the number of inquiries written earlier)
2) Type whatever you want to type there. And;
3) Press the arrow in the Comment as: box and choos which option you prefer.
OR
3) You could simply place your signature there. Eg: Yours til i trip (Arina)
4) Lastly, press the Post Comment button.

That should cover it.

Last but not least, don't believe that "im Deleting the Blog... bal bla bla" line in the cbox. I didn't put that up. My name would always appear orange in the cbox. Anyway if any of those things appear again, inform me immediately.

That's all for now. Oh yah, Hilman said Hi... XD

All in One day

Today we had homeworks for all subjects except BM (Hooray..). So.. I'll list down the homeworks~:

Chem - do the quick review questions on page 65, 69 and 72..

Bio - finish up your PEKA and do the exercise from the papers handed out..(do til page 8 i think)

Maths - do the ones given on the board...

Add. Maths - as some of you go home early or go camp.. I'll write down the works here..
Do chapter 6 formative exercise 6.1 pg 92 question 1, 3 and 5..
That's all only heh..

Sekian, terima kasih XD

Dear Habib,

Thanks, You Rock :D

They should do a 'Ketua Kelas Day' la for people like Habib :)

You make students like us (busy & hardworking) job much easier ;p

Keep up the good work! :]

Yours til i roll,
ARINA :D

I'm out of ideas for the title....~~~ sienz

Haha, it's been quite some time since the last post, eh? I've been kinda busy with the new layout. Just a few reminders and notifications....

Biology

We'll be conducting an experiment on Wednesday. The experiment revolves around the concentration of solutions, I think. So, I'll advise you to bring a potato for yourself. Although you'll be in a group of 4, it'd be better if you just bring one just in case other group members didn't bring their share of potatoes. Just make sure the potato isn't too small. We need to observe what would happen to it. 

Ah, I just remembered there were still some of those who didn't get their Paper 3 exercises. The one on the erythrocytes.So if you want the exercise, come and see me. I still have a few more copies with me. And thats all for Bio.

Secondly is Physics

Yah, physics PEKA. Tomorrow's the deadline. Submit your PEKA tomorrow. Don't really have much to say about this. So, that's it lah. Oh yah, there's still another thing. Prepare a report on your rocket.

Next is Results Slip

If your name is listed here, please bring your Results Slip tomorrow.

a) Alvin

b) Veno

c) Vinod

d) Arina

Yeah, bring it tomorrow, kay? I only need 4 more. I've been holding 33 of these since the last 2 or 3 weeks, so please help me get rid of the extra load in my bag. XD

Chemistry

Those 10-12 pupils who haven't pass up your exercise book, please do so. The deadline was weeks ago. Chances had been given. Just don't take things for granted. What's the point of giving chances if you don't try your best to use it to the fullest? Ah and yes, summarise the notes on chemistry located below. Or just use this link if you're lazy.

Bahasa

Haha. Pass up your Karangan book tomorrow. The essay is about the Rumahku Syurgaku letter, if i'm not mistaken. So, finish it up and I'll collect it first thing tomorrow.

Add Maths

We'll be having extra class this Friday until 12:50 pm. So, inform whoever is picking you up that you'll be a bit late.

PJ (For boys)

Directed to all 4M/J boys. We'll be having PJ on Wednesday to finish up the SEGAK test. There'll be a bit of push-ups and sit-ups, i think. So, best prepare yourself if you feel like impressing some anonymous person. Isn't that right, Nic?

Science & Maths Society

The S&M society is organizing Explorace as part of their participation in the Academic Month. The race is open to all morning-session pupils. A fee of RM4 will be charged on each group and each must have only 4 group members. No more, no less than that. Further information can be obtained at the S&M notice board located on the ground floor of Block B. Or if you don't like walking to the board, you can always have the walking board, Parri, come to you instead. XD

I don't think I want to bring up anything about the Sport's Day. So, that's the end of the first post for the new layout and that's all until the next post comes, I guess.

3, 2, 1, Launch

Tomorrow is your rocket-launching day. Get your rocket and parachute ready and be prepared for inconvenient conditions. May the wind be on our side.

Physics PEKA - Submit by Friday. Latest by next Tuesday.

New Layout Development

The new layout might take some time to be applied here since the layout that you saw had an error regarding the banner. So, maybe I'll try to learn the XML code and rebuild the layout.The earliest the layout would be up is by the mid-term holidays. Anyone who have experience and advanced knowledge on XML codes, please assist me. I'm just modifying any part I can understand.

Sports Day is coming soon. For those who took part in competitions and taekwondo demo, you'd better prepare yourself well. There's a full rehearsal tomorrow too so, do your best. XD

~I dream of sleeping~

Physics Ex 2.4 Compiled

I compiled the exercise so you won't have to scroll down to find the first part of the work. So, there it is lah.

Excercise 2.4

1(a) A lorry managed to travel a distance of 6km in the last 15 min. Upon nearing a traffic light, the lorry driver stepped on his brakes to stop his lorry. The speed of the lorry decreased uniformly and came to a halt after 3 seconds. Calculate
(i) the velocity of the lorry in the initial 15 minutes
(ii) the initial velocity of the lorry
(iii) the deceleration of the lorry

(b) A steel ball of mass 1 kg is dropped vertically from a table as shown in Figure 1(which habib will post later). A bucket of sand is put beside the table so that the steel ball can drop into it.

If the steel ball took 0.5 s to reach the bucket of sand, calculate:

i ) The velocity of the stell ball when it hit the stone.

ii) The height of the table.

iii) The deceleration of the stell ball if it managed to sink 10cm into the sand.

(consider: g = 10 m/s^2)

Okay, that's all for your exercise. Now just read page 8 in your Practical Book. Read, understand, conceptualize and repeat.

Group 1 - chemical properties for 4J, 4M, 4S through 4M

CHEMICAL TRENDS

• Reactivity increases when going down Group 1.
• The valence electron of the atom is further away from the attraction of its positive nucleus.
• The inner electrons shield the outer electron from the nucleus attraction
  

The inner electrons shield the outer electron from the nucleus attraction

Chemical Properties

• Group 1 metals are very reactive metals.
• They all show the same chemical properties.
• They can react with water and non-metal such as oxygen and chlorine to form a new compound.

Electron configuration

Lithium	2.1
Sodium	2.8.1
Potassium	2.8.8.1
Rubidium	2.8.18.1
Cesium	2.8.18.18.1
Francium	2.8.18.32.18.1

• Table above shows the electron arrangement of all the Group 1 metals.
• All the atoms of Group 1 metal consist of 1 valence electron.
• When an alkali metal atoms reacts, it loses the valence electron to form a positively charged ion. Example

• They tend to react mainly with non-metals to form ionic compounds.

1. Reaction with water.
2. Reaction with chlorine gas.
3. Reaction with oxygen gas.

The Reaction of Alkali Metals with cold water

• Group 1 metal react vigorously with water.
• The video below shows the reaction of Lithium, Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium and Caesium with water.
• Click the play button to play the video or click anywhere on the player to link to the video page in youtube.

Observation

Metal	Observation
Lithium	Lithium floats on the surface of the water with with 'fizzing' sound. Colourless gas is released around the metal. Lithium metal moves slowly on the surface of water. The gas released can be ignited. If the gas is collected in a test tube, and then a lighted wooden splinter is brought close to the mouth of the test tube, a "pop" sound is heard. The solution turn blue when it is tested with universal indicator.
Sodium	Sodium also floats on the surface of the water with with 'fizzing' sound. Colourless gas is released around the metal, as what happen to lithium. The lump of sodium moves swiftly on the surface of water. The gas released can be ignited. If the gas is collected in a test tube, and then a lighted wooden splinter is brought close to the mouth of the test tube, a "pop" sound is heard. The solution turn blue when it is tested with universal indicator.
Potassium	Sodium also floats on the surface of the water. It reacts violently with water. Colourless gas is released around the metal. The gas produceed is ignited by the heat release by the reaction itself. If the gas is collected in a test tube, and then a lighted wooden splinter is brought close to the mouth of the test tube, a "pop" sound is heard. The solution turn blue when it is tested with universal indicator.

Discussion

• The reaction with water is highly exothermic (release a lot heat), very fast and violent.
• If a lump of lithium, sodium or potassium is placed in cold water, the metal floats, move around the surface of the water and then dissolve in the water.
• This shows that lithium, sodium and potassium are less dense than water.
• The substance produced is soluble in water.

• The colourless flammable gas is hydrogen. It produces "pops" sound with lit splint.
• Lithium and sodium do not normally cause a flame but the potassium reaction is exothermic enough to ignite the hydrogen.
• Rubidium and caesium are explosive with water. Normally, your teacher does not do this experiment in the school lab.

• If universal indicator is added, it changes from green (pH 7) to purple (pH 13-14), showing that the products are alkali (solution of hydroxide).

• The more reactive the metal, the more vigorous the reaction.
• The reactivity of the metal increases down the group.

Equation of the reaction
Lithium + Water → Lithium Hydroxide + Hydrogen Gas

Sodium+ Water → SodiumHydroxide + Hydrogen Gas

Potassium + Water → Potassium Hydroxide + Hydrogen Gas

The Reaction of Alkali Metals with Non-metals

• Group 1 Alkali Metals react with non-metals to form colourless or white ionic compounds.
• These compounds dissolve in water to give colourless solutions.

Reaction with oxygen

Reaction of alkali metal with oxygen gas.

• The diagram above shows that when hot alkali metal is put into a gas jar filled with oxygen gas, the alkali metal will burn with bright flame.
• They form white oxide powders after reaction.
• These oxides dissolve in water to form strongly alkaline metal hydroxide solutions with pH value 13-14.
• Lithium, sodium and potassium have similar chemical properties. All react with oxygen to produce white metal oxide.
• The reactivity increases down the group from lithium, sodium to potassium.
• Table below shows the observation of lithium, sodium and potassium when burn in oxygen gas.

Observation

Lithium	Lithium burns with red flame and produces white powder immediately after reaction. When the white powder is dissolved in water, it produces a solution which turned red litmus paper blue.
Sodium	Sodium burned with bright yellow flame, forming white powder immediately after reaction. When the white powder is dissolved in water, it produces a solution which turned red litmus paper blue.
Potassium	Potassium burned with very bright purplish flame, forming white powder immediately after reaction. When the white powder is dissolved in water, it produces a solution which turned red litmus paper blue.

Equation

Lithium+ Oxygen Lithium Oxide

Sodium + Oxygen Sodium Oxide

Potassium + Oxygen Potassium Oxide

Reaction with chlorine

Reaction of alkali metal with oxygen gas.

• The diagram above shows that when hot alkali metal is put into a gas jar filled with chlorine gas, the alkali metal will burn with bright flame.
• All alkali metals react with chlorine gas to form white metal chlorides salt.
• Lithium, sodium and potassium have similar chemical properties.
• The metal chlorides salt formed is soluble in water to give a neutral solution of pH 7.
• The reactivity increases down the group from lithium, sodium to potassium.
• Table below shows the observation of lithium, sodium and potassium burn in chlorine gas.

Observation

Lithium	Lithium burned slowly with a reddish flame . A white solid is produced.
Sodium	Sodium burned brightly with a yellowish flame. A white solid is produced. (The reaction is shown in the youtube video below.)
Potassium	Potassium burned very brightly with a purplish flame . A white solid is produced.

Equation

Lithium + Chlorine Lithium Chloride

Sodium + Chlorine Sodium Chloride

Potassium + Chlorine Potassium Chloride

Explaining the Reactivity Trend of the Group 1 Alkali Metals

• When an alkali metal atom reacts, it loses its valence electron to form a positively charged ion.
  

Example

• As we go down the group from one element down to the next, the atomic radius gets bigger due to an extra filled electron shell.
• The valence electron is further and further from the nucleus. Thus the attraction force between the nucleus and the valence electron become weaker and weaker.
• This causes the valence electron is easier to be released to form an ion when the atom takes part in a reaction.

Solubility of the Oxide, Hydroxide and Salt of Alkali Metal

• All the oxide and hydroxide of group 1 metal are soluble in water to form an alkali solution.
• All the salt (salt of chloride, nitrate, sulphate, carbonate....) of group 1 metal are soluble in water. The solution formed are neutral.

Safety Precaution

• Alkali metals are very reactive.
• Therefore it must be kept in paraffin oil to prevent them from reacting with oxygen and water vapour in tbe air.
• We must avoid to hold group 1 metals with bare hand because they may react with water on our hand.
• We must wear safety goggles and gloves during handling experiment involving group 1 metal.

*Make sure you save this post in your computer. then, in your own words, write it in your notebooks...

Your Chemistry teacher,

Mrs Wong...

with da help of Taysher and Akhilash..

XD..!!!

zzzzzzzzzaturday

xP...
I salute the ppl who actually made the right decision of not comin to skul...
xP
there is nothing much to tell u ppl...
there was ceramah...
combined the form 4 & 5...
the ony girls form our class was me n suhaini..
i tink...
i ony saw her...
owh..
n i met up wit Mr. Shukur n asked him to delay the rocket launching day to thursday...
xD
Arina,Jo,Pari etc.. ponteng'ed' the ceramah..
kononnya working for the BP My Science Challenge..
xD...
anywayz tatz all for now...


~reeNIshA~

v CaN n WiLl chaNge wAt pN. WonG tINks BOut us!

I don't like the fact that always get a lecture when a teacher comes into class...
im sorry...
I know v r family but this is getting irritating...
i dun lyk any teachers scolding us...
v might b in the science stream but...
itz time to buck up ppl!
even i hv to stop crappin at the back of bio lab...
but there is no harm in shutting up n listenin...
of course i still wan the flow of jokes but...
buck up ppl..
its time to prove ppl wrong...
the exams r coming up n v wil b better than 4J...

Saturday 'Crashing' Courses...

Saturday, 11th Apr 2009, is a schooling day. In other words, come to school tomorrow. I don't think we'll be following Thursday's timetable as planned instead we're going to follow this timetable.

or this

(Click to enlarge)

Okay, that's all I guess. Make sure you finish your physics project and the paperwork. The rockets will be launched on Tuesday with 4J and 4S, I think. Sorry for not posting the second part of the physics work, but I'll make sure I post it up by tomorrow. I left the exercise in the buku ponteng. =.= I know, I know... I'll make sure it's in here by tomorrow.

And The Majority Agreed....

As you can see, majority says that it's a good idea to put your addresses in the blog. Since there's 37 pupils in the class, a mere side display would appear too long and very troublesome to browse through so, the contacts would later be posted at next year's time. In other words, I'll post it later but I'll set the time to next year. This is done so that by next year, the contacts list would be the first post you see since the probability of me updating the blog next year would be quite low.

So yeah, that's all lah. Make sure you bring your Results Slip for those who haven't pass it back up. And don't forget about the form about the verification of your guide's presence on Sports Day too.

Now, what's left is just... Happy Birthday Johanan and Ameer!!! Since both of you first felt a doctor's gloved hands on the same day, I put the wishes together. To Johanan, take more phosphorus, vitamin D and calcium more. Grow taller lah.... To Ameer, may your relationship with Fatin last. XD

Okay, that's all lah.... Until the next post

Yay, free period... And of course, The Necklace

Alright.

On the 2nd of April 2009, Thursday, I've come to notice that some of us were lazy not able to copy the exercise given on The Necklace. So for your convenience, I'll post it below. Jot it down in your Literature exercise book.

Credits goes to Chen. 

Thursday April 2, 2009

The Necklace

1. The necklace suggest the following about Mathilde...

A. She is pretty and charming

B. She was too good looking to be born into a family of clerks

C. She has no opportunity of marrying a rich man

2. What kind of feeling aroused by the above description of Mathilde?

C. Sympathy

3. Which of the following statements best summarises Mathilde's feelings?

A. She deserved better than to be born into a lower class society

4. Based in the description in the given extract, Mathilde may be considered

C. Conceited and proud

5. The phrase 'not to remarked by another woman' in this extract emphasises that Mathilde

A. is concerned about keeping her appearances

6. Why did Mathilde did not want to wear her wrap?

A. She was embarassed to wear her ordinary wrap

7. From this extract we know all the following about Mathilde except

A. She has always been a good housekeeper

8. In what way does Mathilde help  pay off the family's debt?

C. She does the work her maid used to

9. When Mathilde says, "You never notices, then" she most likely expresses

D. Sadness

10. What would Mathilde be feeling when Madame Forestier says, "Oh my poor Mathilde! My necklace was paste! It was worth at most only five hundred francs!"?

B. Shock and disbelief

Well, that would be the end of it. Please bring your Results Slip tomorrow and for those who haven't got their copy of Maths and Bio exercise, please pay me 30 sen tomorrow and 20 sen to Johanan if you still want those exercises. Sorry to hear about your grandpa, Fudin. We hope he's in a better place. 

Yes, yes, I know. This is really late.

I know I should have posted this MUCH earlier but I was quite busy so, I haven't got much time in my wallet (or money if it made the situation any worse). Well anyway, there's some English notes that you suppose to jot down last week. There was approximately 11 pupils not in class that day.

So, yeah. Here's your English notes.

Thusrday March 26th, 2009

The Infinitive

A. Forms of infinitive

The infinitive consists of "to + verb"

e.g : to work  to write

to eat to sing

to play to punish

B. Uses of infinitive

a) To show an action

e.g : We began to think.

They tried to sing.

b) As a subject of a sentence

e.g : To climb a staircase is dangerous.

Yo help the poor is a good deed.

c) As an object or a compliment of a verb

e.g : I promise to write.

She agreed to return the money.

d) To modify a sentence

e.g : I asked Razali to talk to her.

We expect him to call us at 8.00 p.m.

Okay, that's all I guess. And please bring 30 sen tomorrow for the maths exercise.

Yes, I've been neglecting this... sorry.  Happy Belated Birthday Ong!!! and Happy Belated Birthday Zaim!!! Ya, ya, I know this is really late but it's better late than never, right?

The Fight Of The Nerds

On Tuesday the 30th.
We saw a fight between two nerds:Parri and Richard.
It all started with a friendly hit from Richard.All Parri did was just hit him back(friendlier_)and then all hell broke loose.Richard whacked Parri so hard until his specs flew to the front of the class.Then Parri unleashed the HULK in him and got up and started hitting Richard.Jasmeen got scared bcos she was sittin next to Richard.And guess what our bm teacher stopped the fight. All Richard said after that nevermind teacher, we r just playing...(Richard wat a lame xcuse).
Parri's comment: WARNING.I am Mr. Hyde...

So there you have it the inside scoop on the fight of the nerds.

Your not funny friend,
Johanan
