Thanks for all your detailed questions. I have just finished the podcast interview with Elissa and you can expect to listen to the podcast in the next day or so. For the record Elissa lectures for Access Education - http://www.accesseducation.com.au/midyear.html - who are running a series of VCE chemistry exam preparation sessions. For more information about their exam preparation programs (which include biology, physics, psych, accounting etc) check out their website ASAP. Hi all.

And also, what are the chances of this years exam being easier due to the new study design.

Why is chemical shift measured in ppm? There is a wide range in the chemical shift values stated and some of the values overlap with each other, so how do we know for sure what molecule it is?

Why is chemical shift measured in ppm?

There is a wide range in the chemical shift values stated and some of the values overlap with each other, so how do we know for sure what molecule it is?

Since we dont have checkpoint questions on these topics, is it enough if we do questions from the text book used at school? Also, will questions relating to this be relatively easy since we are the first people to do it? What kind of questions will be asked on NMR, IR and mass spectroscopy?
