* Now talking on #not-math
* Topic for #not-math is: [2007/06/07 -- 13:13:24] < fruitbag> yoel`work: free will violates the laws of thermodynamics.
* Topic for #not-math set by Crito!crito@cri.to at Thu Jun  7 15:15:48 2007
<thermo> If it weren't for my horse, I wouldn't have spent that year in college
<thermo> re: topic
<fruitbag> <thermo> I'm a shitbag
<fruitbag> <thermo> I like to have sex with horses
<fruitbag> <thermo> a/s/l?
<thermo> It's a Lewis Black joke where he talks about the dumbest thing he's ever heard and the reason aneurysms exist
<thermo> 19/m/usa
<fruitbag> "The 100 iron tablets in the bottle contain a total mass of 20 g of iron(II) sulphate. Calculate the mass of iron in 20 g of iron(II) sulphate."
<fruitbag> Any thoughts?
<fruitbag> Hello?
<fruitbag> helllo?
<thermo> What's the formula for iron sulphate?
<fruitbag> FeSO4
<thermo> So what's the ratio of grams of iron per molecule to grams per molecule?
<thermo> per mole of molecules, if that makes you happier
<thermo> (also there is a #chemistry, if you aren't banned)
<int-e> he is banned
<thermo> awesome
<int-e> or so he claims
<thermo> I don't see his hostmask in the ban list, but what do I know
* int-e sets ban on #chemistr!*@*
<int-e> huh?
* int-e removes ban on #chemistr!*@*
<thermo> Oh, there he is
<thermo> *eshmeat@blah blah blah.btcentralplus.com
<int-e> wow. *!*@*.btcentralplus.com
<int-e> that's broad.
<thermo> Can't be too careful
<thermo> And maybe no one in #chemistry actually wants to talk about chemistry
<thermo> Easier to ban large segments of the globe
<fruitbag> I am banned from #chemistry ;(
<fruitbag> So, man...
<fruitbag> ...how do I solve that problem there?
<thermo> I'm leading you to the answer.  What's that ratio?
<fruitbag> What?
<fruitbag> ...I don't understand.
<thermo> <thermo> So what's the ratio of grams of iron per molecule to grams per molecule?
<fruitbag> It's not grams, man.
<fruitbag> RAM is not in gram units
<thermo> Units cancel, so it doesn't matter
<fruitbag> BUT it's wrong ,amn
<thermo> Moar ratios, less of your silly excuses
<fruitbag> What do you want?
<thermo> No, it's not
<fruitbag> Yes, it is.
<fruitbag> Look..
<fruitbag> The ratio of what?
<fruitbag> What ratio do you want?
<int-e> it's you who wants that ratio, fruitbag 
<int-e> even if you don't realize that.
<thermo> Socratic method is for chumps:
<thermo> Iron is 55.8 AMU, and so the fractional mass of iron per molecule of FeSO4 is 55.8/(55.8 + 32 + 16*4)
<thermo> Attach whatever units you like to that
* Magnuss\ (~magnus@85.112.135.22) has joined #not-math
<int-e> (g/mol)/(g/mol)
<thermo> And so in 20 g of FeSO4, there are (20 * that ratio) grams of iron
<Magnuss\> What's the topic?
<thermo> Minus small things like bound electrons and things you don't really care about unless you're splitting atoms
<thermo> The topic is boring and will blow over shortly
<Magnuss\> Good, sounds like chemistry.
<thermo> indeed
<Magnuss\> I have my last exam in .. 6hrs 30min:-)
<Magnuss\> I'm sooo ready for summer vacation
<thermo> I've been out of school for a month, and work sucks much harder than college :(
<Magnuss\> :(
<Magnuss\> http://youtube.com/watch?v=UTby_e4-Rhg <- haha! must see
<fruitbag> heh
<fruitbag> That's incorrect
<fruitbag> I disagree
<fruitbag> that's not right, thermo
