RE: Chemistry Lesson: Part 4 (Calculating Atomic Mass and Writing Chemical Reactions)
(g) in that case refers to the fact that the molecules participating in that reaction are all in the gas phase. I will explain that sort of thing in coming posts, however that is the actual reaction so I wanted to write it correctly.
As for particles, well chemistry is a more macroscopic look at these phenomenon. We all know that when you get down to the quantum levels the rules of the game are significantly different :)
Ohh the (g) was this... Indeed I could have guessed. Thanks!
Your posts are bringing back memories about my former chemistry courses... I was the official pipette breaker of the chemistry labs when I entered the university...
I usually use plastic pipettes ( I don't work with any volatile solvents that could dissolve them) because the glass ones are just too easy to break!
